Chicken Soup for Bill Donohue's Catholic League Soul - Art

The Secret Life of Catholic Super Hero – Bill Donohue / Tim Dolan ??



I cannot quite figure it out yet.  Which one of the two people never seen together in public around New York City - Bill Donohue or Tim Dolan is the real Catholic Super Hero? Are there two or merely a Clark Kent type single Hero guy?

Bad Cop - Good Cop /  Bill Donohue - Tim Dolan


Mild mannered Archbishop Tim Dolan jumps out of his limousine and into a pay phone kiosk (not many of them left in mid-town Manhattan) – Hot under the Oxford Shirt collar Bill Donohue jumping into the men’s room at Rosy O’Gradie’s or any other mid-town rummy tourist bar and voila – Super Hero.

That’s not to say that Dolan’s fabulous polyester outfit makes him the superior half of the Super UberCath team fighting off secularists and atheists with tax free 501(c)3 DOLLARS.



When Janus needs a way to sell the product, TAP THE VAT(ican) of PR Bullshit with a different face, then miraculously (man made miracle BTW) Super UberCath appears in front of the Eyewitness or Fox News camera.  

Ten second PR sound bites are a modern art form and currently a required two semester subject in seminaries worldwide for the guys being groomed for success by the Father Escriva and Maciel cadre of Catholic training types these days.

In Dolan’s Colon (that rhymes) – Artiste Bill Donohue at Catholic League Displays his “Obama in Feces” Decorative Artwork

Eyes reading a telepromter? - Bill Donohue - The Catholic League


Bill Donohue is like a pit bull. He won’t give it up in terms of being an unrecognized artistic genius having to muck about with the likes of Archbishop Dolan and Rupert Murdoch over at Fox News.

I did not know that the Santorum crowd, the Pink Palace crowd in the NewYork archdiocese like to play with “brown” Play-Doh and call it art.  

I want Bill Donohue’s job. And I won’t have Yahoo as my homepage in the office like Bill – Yahoo! - OMG!

$400,000 a year to sit around an executive suite with a view of Central Park and fantasize about black people in their own feces as the new mean spirited Catholic League / Cardinal Dolan sponsored $$$ vvision of art.  LOL. LMAO.  

Gee Bill, Nostalgia. Now I understand the “New Evangelization” completely.

I haven’t had so much fun with nostalgic memories since I was two and playing with my own feces that fell out of one of those old fashioned cloth diapers that my mother had to recycle in the wash.




Catch 3:09 – 3:59 of video above to listen to a grown man whine about decorative art.  Old decorative art.




BTW the way Cardinal Dolan, I am a starving poet.  Send me some grant money. Pleese!

Here is a sample of my work:

Santorum’s Best – a poem

There once was a cemetery
Crook from Milwaukee Nantucket
Who had a drunk stooge
Who could only flunck(y) it
In life. …
But when it came to his art
The sterling part, the secret
Was found obviously hidden
In his eyes, stars, in wide stance
on a toilet seat perhaps
And (or) in Dolan’s colon.

One of the Single Best Movie Scenes of All Time - Running on Empty - 1988 - Christine Lahti - Steven Hill - Sidney Lumet




http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096018/


Because this film gives a face, a human face, to the last remnants of the Vietnam War Era in America, this film has never been given its true due. 

The one scene with Christine Lahti having a brief clandestine reunion with her establishment father chokes me in the throat and wells me up with tears in my eyes every time I see it. It is the single most powerful scene I can remember in cinema. It is truly one of the ten great scenes of all time in Cinema History. Stephen Hills's subtle, uptight, stone faced performance is a mask we can see through full of its anger, confusion and hidden emotion. It leads the whole scene. Christine Lahti truly deserves an Oscar in Retrospect from the Academy.

Skank Media Ho Bill Donohue Tries To Lead Liquored Up Catholic Mob Attack On New York Art Gallery

Andres Serrano - "Heaven and Hell"


Infamous Catholic Party media ho and gadfly Bill Donohue and a gang of liquored up middle aged, some closeted, Irish Catholic types tried to mob their way into a peaceful art exhibit on W 57 Street in midtown Manhattan recently.

The object of their media publicity quest was a rather outdated piece of decorative art “Immersion” by New York Artist Andres Serrano. Apparently the twenty fifth anniversary showing of a commodity piece of decorative art got the Friday Irish Watering Hole guys over at Rosie O’Grady’s to get upset that somebody under the first amendment could portray the image, a photograph in fact, of a crucifix in a jar of the artist’s urine and call it art.

And all within walking and drinking distance of his bar and his Eminence’s Pink Palace Bishop’s Townhouse over by St. Pat’s Cathedral. It was enough to make a grown drunk divorced Irish Catholic man like poor sensitive Bill Donohue to cry.

 


Gallery owners were expecting a protest on Thursday night and were relieved when only about 30 people turned up, Ms. von Mueffling said. Things became heated, she said, when the group tried to push pass the four guards at the entry. She said that the gallery called the police, who dispersed the protesters.
Mr. Donohue called that version of events an “out-and-out lie.”
“We didn’t push past anybody,” he said. “There were no police there, none at all.”
Only he was blocked from entering, Mr. Donohue said. He left and went with some friends to Rosie O’Grady’s, a nearby bar.
Detective Marc Nell, a spokesman for the New York City Police Department, said that officers were aware that a protest was going on and went by twice to check, but not in response to a call. During the first visit in the evening, at 6:22 p.m., “there was no interaction with the protesters,” Detective Nell said. He added: “Police talked to security and security said everything was fine.”

The new Catheo/Fascism - against all free conscience in America - Catholic / Theology / Fascism = Catheofascism




One of the pluses of hanging out on this blog for the past four years has been an almost daily education of the finer details of Catholic and Christian theology or the approach to the concept of the abstract G*d thing.

I am, many times. a day or two late and more than a few dollars short on the subject of theology BTW.

But I am reminded of two things as the religious parasite crowd in this country wants more and more handouts of cash from the government for its charity and education rackets.

Lori, Harrison, Mitchell - A Catholic, A Lutheran and A Baptist go into a Bar and demand Free Whiskey...

I am not anti-religion.  I am Areligionist - without dogma and or religion, with a background dose of Cultural Christian in my everyday mindset.

The two things are related to a third thing – the civil rights issue of marriage equality.

I am reminded of the Bishop of Denver sanctioning the turning out of two small children from their catholic school in an affluent suburb because their parents were an unmarried lesbian couple living together.  Apparently it is not legal for the "Spouse One" and the "Spouse Two" boxes on many marriage certificate applications in America to be filled in with the names of people of the same gender in Colorado, a wild west territory until 1876.

Modern Invented Definition - Homosexual - Source: Dictionary.com

Beyond that there are too many stories of gay men and women who are not openly, but covertly, fired from jobs in Catholic and probably Christian education as well  because they dare to walk out of the shadows of a lie that society builds around the misunderstanding of human sexuality, built on invented terms, many of which were invented in Victorian England and in reflection of the obsessive compulsive disorder of the German Prince Consort Albert and other compulsive Victorians.

I am reminded of the Mormons who had to give up their socially designed redesign around the marriage thing in the form of one man marrying many women and calling his concubines "wives" and married in Mormon Temple etc. That the Mormons had to abandon polygamy in order to gain statehood in the United States as the state of Utah.

Zion Ranch Texas - Mormon Wives - 2008 

That I am reminded that it is the Mormons who raised the most cash to turn back the California law allowing civil, not religious, marriage for taxpaying gay citizens, male and female.

This spiteful Mormon deal carries over onto the Catholic landscape where the latest hate campaign against gay catholics is at a fever pitch and in obedience to monies paid to the RC church from the fundamentalist Christian Right and the Mormon Church to introduce American society over a period of decades to the concept that it is alright to openly hate the gays in the form of disqualification from marriage (sorry, failed the religious litmus test as defined precisely by G*d hisself) and eventually other civil rights as well.
 
And not just for gays but eventually all people of free conscience in a once free land that was founded to protect people from the dark shadows of things like Catheofascism among other dark religious beliefs and laws in Europe.

The second thing is the firing of a catholic school teacher in June in Minnesota for saying that she believed in the concept of same-sex marriage on her self-filled out evaluation. The story made all the papers for a day or two.  The teacher, Trish Cameron, no doubt could not live with the hypocrisy of a lie that so many of the majority of the closeted gay clergy can live with every day to protect their meal-ticket lifetime jobs with the Vatican. 

I pray that one day we gain back the morality and integrity of a non-majority Catholic United States Supreme Court to state that yes, Catholic Clergy are employees of an international corporation and that Headquarters in Rome can be sued for hate, fraud and buggery as part of that worldwide organization.

It may be me alone and too many people may be too lazy to notice it but expelling children from Catholic Schools, children from Bishop Chaput’s diocese school for their parents beliefs and sexuality and the firing of teachers and theologians and others from Catholic institutions reminds me an awful lot of the early days of the National Socialist Regime in Germany in the early 1930s.

"Kauft Nicht" - Don’t Buy...

In fact the recent story, greatly upset me, of the Catholic Church in Germany wanting, demanding its 8% income tax on German citizens for accident of birth and or accident of baptism in one particular faith, as a financial burden for the rest of their lives of these catholic victims by birth, whether they believe in the faith or whether they attend church or not.  

That I have to wonder when did this right of Catholic Church taxation of German citizens begin – the German/Vatican Concordat of 1933

Signing Away German Catholic Civil Rights for Vatican Privilege 

No doubt Ross Douthat of the NYT, Michael Sean Winters of NCR, Raymond Arroyo of EWTN and Bill Donohue of Timbo Dolan NYC Inc. will soon be churning out the Catheofascist propaganda PR about how what a great and efficient idea a Catholic Tax in America will be, to have it imposed on all the population etc., Catholic or not.

With more and more overlapping of church and state in America, with faith based “charities” handouts to foreign religious corporations, with school vouchers and other indirect subsidies to the Catholic education system that is allowed by right of some mythical God that they cannot prove to me exists, and are therefore exempt or want exemption from other secular humanist laws like laws against discrimination, well you think about it.

How long before the Catholic Church surcharge on your state and national income taxes must be paid under penalty of the law – which law – secular law or the religious laws of the new American Catheofascism?
