What Do Mormons Taste Like? – Cardinal Dolan – Archbishop Niederauer



"Mormon Broker" Niederauer
"American Pope" Dolan



PROVO, Utah -- The fight to defend moral principles is linking Mormons and Catholics like never before.
"In recent years, Catholics and members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have stood more frequently side by side in the public square to defend human life and dignity," Francis Cardinal George told nearly 12,000 students, faculty and community members gathered Tuesday at BYU.
"I'm personally grateful that after 180 years of living mostly apart from one another, Catholics and Latter-day Saints have begun to see each other as trustworthy partners in defense of shared moral principles." --- Cardinal George, President of USCCB, Feb 24, 2010

The very gay marriage between the male rulers of  the American Roman Catholic Church and the male leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a secret marriage as of this moment.

But on a timeline, the official merger of Catholic and Mormon Mutual Self Interests in America is about on schedule.

The former Catholic bishop of Salt Lake City George Niederauer sent out a money help call to his friends in the Mormons mostly, but definitely elites only, Country Club in Salt Lake City in early 2008.  He needed the cash to fund Prop 8 on the November 2008 ballot to deny the civil rights of Marriage Equality for Gays.

Like why gives Gays rights like marriage when celibate priests are (?) trapped in unmarried celibate hell?

The Mormons gave Niederauer a “we’ll think about it”.  Nothing much might have come of a Catholic Bishop begging for chump change in his current hate campaign against the gays except that in April 2008 all hell heck broke out in Temple Square, regarding the arrests of break-away Mormons practicing the “P” word (polygamy) at the Zion Ranch in Texas.

      

The Mormon elites talked it over at the Country Club and decided that giving Niederauer the scratch to attack the gays would keep the media off the child rape forced marriage polygamy thing.  Besides the Catholics in charge know and appreciate the finer details of the bible and the modern secular misinterpretation of child rape and have hundreds of lawyers and PR people on retainer to deal with such things. Giving the Catholics the money to attack the Gays will be a good thing to offset this unpleasant Mormon thing in Texas.



Makes sense. To me at least. And I am a believer that the timeline in history is a better neutral interpreter of historical events than the mere opinion of scholars.

Prop 8 was a success.  Bigger plans and elections to sway, fix and change America back to the good old simplistic days of “Leave It To Beaver” Mormon American Morality. Whatever.

Public display of warmth between two hostile to each other, in the past, groups was necessary.  And who better to seal and private deals than with a Cardinal, president at the time of the whole bishop boys union, the USCCB.

Cardinal George also addressed the opposition that Catholics and Mormons have faced for their joint advocacy of human rights and dignity, citing the response from Proposition 8 opponents in California as an example.
“What I most regret is not the opposition, that is understandable ... And those of us who have gay people in their family as I have, know the anxieties and the conflicts in their own life. And we have to be there for them and love them and support them.”
But when Prop. 8 opponents “respond by thuggery, by quasi-fascist tactics, then the common good, our whole society, stands in great jeopardy,” Cardinal George said.
Opposition to the efforts of Catholics and LDS members should be expected, he added. “But despite that, if we stay together and go forward, … if we simply continue to talk together, (it) will in the end bear much fruit.”

Which leads us on the timeline to August 30, 2012 when Cardinal Timmy Dolan, Archbishop of New York City, President of the USCCB, “the American Pope” is led into Mitt Romney’s hotel suite in Tampa, full of Mormons, elites and relatives, and Cardinal Dolan does the obligatory bow to the next president of the United States and Dolan kisses Mitt’s wedding ring in Italian Roman, “our thing” respect.

Which leads to the opening question.  Tim, what do Mormons taste like? Their ring fingers at least?

Timmy has to protect his church’s tax free status after having drooled over his boy Ryan and bowed to the Man Mitt. Off to Charlotte and the Dem Convention for the minimum sake of pastoral appearances.

BTW, I am not all that interested in knowing what Barry’s butt tastes like since Dolan will be kissing an awful lot of Democratic butts this coming week in Charlotte with his Janus faced smile after his one real performance in Tampa this past week.

Bill Donohue – Catholic League Down Low Kabuki Theater - Groeschel - Dolan - Cordileone

EWTN - Catholic Kabuki Theater - host Raymond Arroyo


Bill Donohue is in rare form. His unpaid interns are cranking out the comic book screed to help illustrate the Kabuki Down Low Theatre of the American RCC of late. Shakespeare never could make this much shit up out of real history, that is going on lately in the local rectory.

I was genuinely touched by his piece on the aging Father Benedict Groeschel who empathizes with that “poor guy” Jerry Sandusky and blames the victims of child abuse and rape as forcing vulnerable adult priests into abusing and raping them.

I know that Groeschel’s show on EWTN is a cash cow for his merry band of Franciscan brothers but don’t let reporters or people from the district attorney’s office tap into the long term memory of a lifetime professional shrink, apologist and coverup-er, enabler of priest problems and crimes. Don’t let him near a tape recorder. Time to park that Model T in the garage permanently, if you know what I mean.

My compliments to the author/intern on that one. No spell check errors.


Bill will be on with Kabuki master Raymond Arroyo, inspiration to me regarding Catholic Kabuki as practiced on the Catholic TV network EWTN, on Sunday and Monday. Check your local listings.

Bill will be discussing Cardinal Dolan’s last minute invitation of hisself to the Democratic Convention in Charlotte to protect his 501 (c) (3) tax status after fawning on the GOP and all but endorsing the Romney Ryan Ticket.  I am going to watch and listen to Bill defend his drinking buddy and personal friend Tim Dolan.  Donohue will probably not reveal any yummy gossip from Tim like “what do Mormons taste like?” in that scripted kabuki interview with Ray Arroyo.

And finally onto Bishop Cordileone and his DUI this past weekend. Bill quotes I think from some porn site to excite the reading audience and paint the picture of what a Sodom and Gomorrah San Francisco is and poor holy Sal Cordileone who has to inherit it, such a horrible evil place, and must attempt it to bring it back to the one true Plaster Catholic god.

Gay blog sites have also picked up on this theme. Why? San Francisco is a city where men [read: gays] are free to walk around naked in the street in front of women and children. They can even walk into McDonalds totally nude and park themselves next to Ronald McDonald, provided, the law says, they place a towel on their seat (hygiene matters). Next month homosexuals will whip each other in the street and have sex in public at the Folsom Street Fair. This is the city that Cordileone will soon inherit. 
(the only thing missing above is the booze and the words “catholic seminary” written over that MickyD’s front door girl)

Which leaves us with questions as to how fast Sal got his boy toy out of the country under varying short term media descriptive labels (now erased), labels such as “young priest from overseas” to “foreign exchange student from Germany” to “young male companion” in the passenger seat with 88 year old mom in the back seat as Chaperone or dare I say it Pimping for Junior and or providing cover/beard, plausibility.  I ran into a few mother daughter acts in my dating days and the mom, gay son act variation too once from a relative etc.

In any case, Bill and Ray on EWTN will be great theater this weekend.  My regards to Bill’s ghostwriters, on this rather exceptional energetic cranking out the script/screed lately.  

Cheers!

A House of Prayer

St Thomas/High Altar/5 Av/53 St/NYC


From a journal – May 2003

...Rushing to my express bus on Fifth Avenue I glanced up the steps into an unused entrance to Saint Thomas Episcopal Church, a structure I have mentioned before in this journal – (a place where I have gone to pray and mediate and admire the unique massive stone altar piece and stained glass)...

I saw a Muslim engaged in his 4th (?) prayer of the day. He was shoeless – white socks on gray stone – I had seen something like this before, at this same spot, on a cold dark winter night at 5:30 P.M. last winter or one winter ago – one loses track of time here in New York –

...glanced before, at that time, and did not pay much attention to that scene – (did not wish to stare or to intrude on prayer which can be both a public or a private thing). (I was also in a hurry to catch my bus). Later I tried to recollect the scene, reconstruct the scene – but the memory did not fit. Was not reminded of it again until today.

I thought that there were stone saint icons on the side of that locked wooden door area. Today, in less darkness, I noticed the angle of the pray-er’s focus. That focus was not in the direction of the stone statues but on stone support columns – round pillars rising up to typical gothic angle – an arabic angle? – a muslim angle? Which came first, the gothic or the...-

Does not matter. I am reminded of this pray-er and Isaiah’s words. “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations” Those words more than ever are needed today in this world.

God be praised!...

Todd Akin’s Friend Father Benedict Groeschel – on Child Abuse – the Victim’s Fault - Sick!




TV evangelist priest Father Benedict Groeschel misses the good old days when you could rape children and get away with it – He lives and works in Cardinal Timothy Dolan’s ”Moral” Bailiwick?

"Director of the Office for Spiritual Development for the Catholic Archdiocese of New York"???  Does he work in an office next door to Bill Donohue at the Catholic League?



(9:25 PM 31 August 2012 EST --  There are sixteen edits, changes, to Wikipedia, in Benedict Groeschel's history data file today, viewed upon later inspection. As of 10:51AM 31 August 2012 EST my quote stands as “He is the director of the Office for Spiritual Development for the Catholic Archdiocese of New York”. Many other changes on Wiki for 30 August as well. So many changes and so little time.)

1:49 PM 1 September 2012 - Apparently Groeschel has a huge history, a lot of baggage of enabling priests to continue to abuse children.

Gina Rinehart is so Rich and so Fat She wants Australia for Lunch – Princess of Woop Woop - worth $30 Billion

Gina Rinehart - Princess of Woop Woop in Oz


Once again it is those lazy poor people living off the system who make life so miserable for the very RICH.  Princess of Woop Woop Land in Australia Gina Rinehart thinks $15.96 minimum wage Austalian, $1.029 to $1.00 American rate, is a burden for her company to pay for a working man to support his family for his first 38 hours of labor. 

She is jealous that Americans only get $7.25 minimum wage in the United States and wants a similar deal for workers in Oz.

What a fucking greedy pig! Go buy a bottle of shampoo darling and a bar of soap too I think while you are at it as well.

Oh dear.  Where is the catsup mate? I want to eat Australia for lunch! Same as the Koch Brothers are already munching on America’s assets.

Australian mining tycoon Gina Rinehart, the richest woman in the world (yes, richer even than Christy Walton) must think she’s some kind of Dagny Taggart OR SOMETHING. Rinehart penned an offensive editorial column in a mining industry magazine that’s being widely condemned in Australia. Considering that she owns much of the media there, and undoubtedly many a politician, too, that seems significant.
Rinehart’s fortune is estimated to be in the range of $30 billion and apparently the mining heiress thinks those drunken shrimp-on-the-barbie poors are just jealous of people like her and her rich friends. During a month when Rinehart is actively engaged in petitioning the government to lower the minimum wage and slash taxes on the wealthy, her timing couldn’t be worse.
Setting aside the fact that it’s patently ridiculous that a single family could be allowed to make that kind of money by mining a natural (and therefore national) resource like iron ore out of the ground, Rinehart inherited her fucking money in the first place (Just like Francisco d’Anconia inherited his copper mines in Atlas Shrugged, eh? And remind me again how Dagny Taggart came to be running Taggart Transcontinental? Ah, yes, through an accident of birth!) Via Raw Story:
“There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire. If you’re jealous of those with more money, don’t just sit there and complain. Do something to make more money yourself — spend less time drinking or smoking and socialising, and more time working. Become one of those people who work hard, invest and build, and at the same time create employment and opportunities for others”
Rinehart blamed what she described as “socialist”, anti-business policies for the plight of Australia’s poor, urging the government to lower the minimum wage, as well as taxes, unless it wanted to end up like Greece.

Koch Brothers’ Mistress Gina Rinehart - Richest Woman in the World - $30 Billion worth - thinks Poor are Lazy and Minimum Wage Too High -- in Australia that is

Bain Capital / Mitt Romney - Dead Peasants Life Insurance Fund Scam – Worth Billions?




My bank pays 1.5% on deposits.  For Romney to make an annual income of 20 million, that 8% return on his 250 million fortune.  Interest on savings is taxable as income. But he pays little or no taxes claiming capital gains.

Life Insurance Pay Out is not taxable and depending on the loose loopholes surrounding purchase of and maintenance and tax deductibility for paying insurance, how many of the fired peasants of Bain Capital does Bain Capital and or Mitt Romney benefit from their deaths, probably caused by lack of health insurance, through life Insurance.

And besides all the victims, from the “Dead Peasants” at Bain, Mitt has a whole other block of victims to insure with his literal vulture capitalism, all the people who worked on the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, good middle-aged and elderly Mormon volunteers, who probably signed away their rights to benefit from their own life insurance policies.

Romney Ryan GOP - Holy Shit - Always look on the Bright Side of Life




.Cheer up, Brian. You know what they say.
Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad.
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle,
Don't grumble, give a wistle!
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...

(the music fades into the song)

...always look on the bright side of life!
(whistle)

Always look on the light side of life...
If life seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten!
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing,

When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps,
Just purse your lips and whistle -- that's the thing!
And... always look on the bright side of life...

(whistle)
Come on!

(other start to join in)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(whistle)

For life is quite absurd,
And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow!
Forget about your sin -- give the audience a grin,
Enjoy it -- it's the last chance anyhow!

So always look on the bright side of death!
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
Life's a piece of shit,
When you look at it.

Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true,
You'll see it's all a show,
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you!

And always look on the bright side of life
(whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life
(whistle)

Whatever Happened to Stephen Baldwin the Actor?



Only rich white men (Capitalism) can do better charity than through Government – The Reverend Stephen Baldwin

I just watched the worst couple of minutes of dead air time in a long time, watching the Martin Bashir Show on MSNBC watching a literal deadhead in the form of meal ticket evangelist Stephen Baldwin.

He equates the Republicans with God because they are against abortion and are therefore the party of white male entitlement and or “family values”

Morally superior Stephen Baldwin is in Tampa with his hands out for a bigger share of faith based profits to feed him, support him while he preaches his dead cow, eat the cow, form of Christianity.  If he had fed the cow and maintained a steady career path in show business, he would not be begging for charity subcontractor jobs at the GOP convention in Tampa. What a shame.

He was claiming that trickle down charity from billionaire capitalists will get the job done, with him as a middle man, instead of the government as benefactor.

Whatever.

Desmond Tutu Refuses to Share Stage with “Iraq War Criminal” Tony Blair

Morality against White Male Entitlement and War Crimes

Hey Desmond get with the program, white Anglo-Saxon males are incapable of war crime.  Tony Blair, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney etc. It is called “white male entitlement”. It is the first “law of nature”.


The Nobel Peace Prize winner who was the first black archbishop of Cape Town made the protest because of the former Prime Minister's “morally indefensible” decision to lead British forces into Iraq in 2003. 
However Mr Blair hit back in a statement, insisting that such "decisions are never easy morally or politically”. 
Mr Blair and Archbishop Tutu, who received the Nobel Prize in 1984 for campaigning against apartheid, were due to appear at a leadership summit in Johannesburg later this week. 
A local Muslim party has already announced that it would attempt to arrest Blair when he arrives in Johannesburg for “crimes against humanity”. 
Archbishop Tutu’s office said in a statement: “Ultimately, the Archbishop is of the view that Mr Blair's decision to support the United States' military invasion of Iraq, on the basis of unproven allegations of the existence in Iraq of weapons of mass destruction, was morally indefensible.

Brazil Court Orders Nestles to Label its Monsanto GM Genetically Modified/Mutated Foods




The creeping arm of the Corporate Food Monster has been set back a bit in Brazil regarding GM (genetically modified/mutated) Food and GMOs (genetically modified/mutated organisms).
After a long legal battle in Brazilian court, Swedish food corporation Nestlé has lost and will be forced to label their food products sold within Brazil as containing genetically modified ingredients. 
As a major purchaser of Monsanto’s genetically modified crops, many, if not the majority of, Nestlé’s products contain ingredients from genetically modified food. The court ruling mandated that the food giant be required to label anything containing more than one percent genetically modified ingredients accordingly. 
This comes shortly after Poland banned GMO corn and Peru banned GMOs completely. 
Talk of Nestlé’s loss has been all over Facebook and twitter, and has fed the fire of debate over the safety of GMO food. The U.S. government has been a huge advocate of GMOs and Monsanto, but concerned citizens of California have put Proposition 37 on the ballot for the November election. 
Prop. 37 would require that genetically modified foods sold within the state of California be labeled accordingly to protect consumers and allow them to make informed choices about their food. Concern surrounding the safety of GMOs is at an all-time high, and Nestlé has failed to engage in the conversation via social media – even as their brand has been at the center of the debate, lately.

Ann Romney's GOP Speech - Who I would rather listen to...




.

Vulgar Loud Mouthed Dago Gov Chris Christie of Joisey Trashes Governor Jerry Brown of California In Tampa


Mean Spirited is not a pasta sauce. For some it just comes naturally.


Dripping with his usual street charm and grease from his peppers and sausage lunch, “Tiny Chris” Christie ripped into Jerry Brown to drunk stoned GOP delegates yesterday having a hurricane party.

Christie pissed that Romney picked an Ayn-Ryan Catholic over himself, a good Italian Catholic, a member of a good Italian Catholic parish where forgiveness of sins is purchased by the pound – of hundred dollar bills etc., is in Tampa to play Romney's goomar, number #2 VP choice, and give a speech anyway for the sake his 2016 ambitions. No problem.

But waiting around inside out of the rain, he could not hide his vulgar street education and manners and trash the only decent Catholic politician in the Country, one that really cares about the poor and the gospels. Forgeta bout it.


Gov. Chris Christie clearly doesn't think highly of his California counterpart, Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown.
"California made a bad choice by going with an old retread," Christie told a crowd of California delegates at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla. "I mean he won the New Jersey presidential primary over Jimmy Carter when I was 14 years old." 
 The age references energized the crowd, as Christie encouraged the California delegates to elect conservatives in their typically blue state, just as blue-state New Jersey did by voting for Christie.

Mean Spirited greasy street thug!
