Comment on Cardinal says Gosnell’s atrocities point to ‘liberal abortion culture’ by Juan Oskar

Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan of New York said, “If Cuomo pushes to have “a right to an abortion” codified in state law, he will face “vociferous” and “rigorous” opposition from Catholic and other pro-lifers.” I’m no legal guy but isn’t it already codified? “The cardinal hopes it doesn’t come to that.” It’s THAT! Isn’t it? Cuomo wants alternatives to abortion,” such as expanding adoption, having “greater latitude” in maternity leave and better assisting pregnant women in need and those with small children.” I agree but aren’t those differnt issues? Cardinal Dolan thinks they have worked closely on other issues, but Dolan doesn’t realize he’s like a mosquito trying to get blood from a mannequin. (Not my joke Our cardinal goes on, “It is an “extreme oxymoron that abortion is seen as helping women’s health.” Yep. That’s it! There is NO *N*e*g*o*t*i*a*t*i*o*n! Period! The article said, “Besides abortion, Cuomo’s proposed 10-point Women’s Equality Act address pay equity; sexual harassment in the workplace; human trafficking; income, housing, family-status and pregnancy discrimination; stronger order-of-protection laws for victims of domestic violence; and recovery of attorney fees in employment and credit/lending cases.” My eyes really glazed when it started with “Recovery of attorney fees…” Cardinal Dolan is a theologian, Cuomo is a lawyer and I’m a second rate piano player and even ‘I’ can see what the lawyer is doing. Cardinal Dolan said, “I do appreciate his company,” “Always welcome his visits,” The Cardinal “has a lot of respect for the current governor,” and ,” “He talks turkey.” There is something ‘fowl’ about this whole thing.

Comment on Ripple effect continues five years after immigration raid on Iowa plant by wigglwagon

An 800 page bill is ridiculous.

The penalty for employers of illegal workers should be mandatory $15,000 fine per illegal worker and mandatory 2 years in jail without parole per illegal worker. That and deportation of the illegal worker would put an immediate end to the problem.

That is ALL the reform we need.

People like the DREAMERS are not needed in America. The people in their home countries need the DREAMERS to help build free prosperous societies. It is America’s responsibility to help all countries build a better world. We should not be stealing ‘the best and the brightest’ from other countries.

The Catholic Church is very wrong to endorse immigration. Immigration is used by the capitalists to lower wages for the working class and to reverse gains in living standards that decades of trade union struggles have accomplished. Immigrants are worse than scabs, because they perform the same role but go as far as abandoning their homelands to do it. Running away from your troubles doesn’t solve them. If you have problems in your homeland, you need to try to make your homeland a better place.

well then, Reverend Dolan, according to your remarks, sharia law is just fine. “Impose religious beliefs”: we do it all the time. The real problem with the Catholic leadership on abortion is that they haven’t dealt correctly with EXACTLY that myopia Cuomo,Sr. fell into, that he has greater responsibility to the State than to his own conscience. Government should be at the will of the People. The Church needs to form the conscience of the People, NOT lobby legislators to impose Catholic religious beliefs. The SHEEP know the Master’s voice. Stop lobbying and start pastoring. We are still not hearing the right stuff from the pulpit. And we aren’t seeing enough priests out among the people, teaching them sound Catholic teaching on Life issues, because, well, the priests themselves weren’t formed properly and are unable and unfit to pastor properly. It’s a big mess.

Your capacity to grasp the seriousness of this situation and Cardinal Dolan’s lamentable weakness is as defective as your ability to spell the word “shepherd” correctly.

Cardinal Dolan is leading by example. He is a sheppard not afraid of the voices in the dark. May our Lord Jesus bless him and the Holy Spirit be his guide. I am praying for him that he have the courage and strenght to stand up to this culture of death.

Is Satan A Catholic In “Good Standing?”

Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York is attempting to pass the most deadly abortion bill in American history. This bill would remove practically all restrictions on abortion, remove medical standards for abortion mills, and allow abortion for all nine months of a child’s life in the womb.

Governor Cuomo claims to be Catholic. Cardinal Dolan as a Bishop in the Catholic Church has the authority and responsibility to protect and defend what the Catholic Church teaches and believes.

So what is Cardinal Dolan’s response to Governor Cuomo’s attempt to promote and advance the murder of thousands upon thousands of children in New York state?

Archdiocesan spokesman Joseph Zwilling speaking on behalf of Cardinal Dolan said in reference to Gov. Cuomo’s standing as a Catholic in regard to the abortion question, “Cardinal Dolan would not, and did not, suggest the governor might not be a Catholic in good standing going forward.”

Cardinal Dolan said himself in a radio interview with Fred Dicker “I appreciate a lot of things about Governor Cuomo. He and I get along well. And I’m grateful that he keeps in touch.”

Out of all this a few things become clear. We know Cardinal Dolan does not like abortion, but in Cardinal Dolan’s Archdiocese a person can dedicate his life to and be responsible for murdering countless thousands of babies in the womb and still be a Catholic in “good standing” and get along well with the Cardinal.

The lesson we learn from this is in Cardinal Dolan’s world, the mass murder of babies can go hand in hand with being a Catholic in “good standing”.

This makes a mockery of the Catholic faith and ridicules every child murdered by abortion – it seems even Satan himself could be a Catholic in “good standing” in New York.
