And this month, it got even worse. Or better, if you want to view it that way -- I got a lot of writing done. However, while I usually have a Catholic review at the end of the month, this month already requires a massive column dump.
After that, I figured I should ask a common question -- didn't the church support Obama? And Obamacare? Not only that, but wasn't Obama pro-abortion before he ran for the Oval office? So, I asked if the Church is still gullible after all these years?
The next predictable FAQ ... why is the Catholic church against abortion, and contraception, and all the other stuff. What is the big idea, after all? So I had to call it the Catholic church, abortion, and natural law ... you'll see what I mean.
And then Nancy Pelosi earned her thirty pieces of silver ... in this case, she came out to stand with the Catholics ... who supported Obama, declaring it an act of courage to stand against the church. Let's just say I used The Princess Bride a lot. Given that this is consistent with her stance for her entire career, I had a lot of people asking if Pelosi was to be excommunicated. It was a little sarcastic. Even my editor caught up on it.
He who takes the Catholic vote takes the election. Guess who ... may not? I ran some electoral math on the 2012 election. You might be surprised at the problems here.
After a while, as you can imagine, this got kinda stupid. And I was tired of all of it. So, I discussed the Million-dollar ripoff of the New York archdiocese -- and you thought the priests were the problem. I then did a brief examination ofOccupy wall street and the revenge of the Vatican ninjas -- just when you thought you were safe, huh? Then Proposition 8 was overturned -- my only note there is that it might be a little soon to pop the champagne.Then the government did something stupid, and the Army censored the Catholic church over the issue of -- you guessed it -- Obamacare. Oy.

Then, last Friday, there was a press conference. I listened, then wondered: Has Obama compromised on churches? The answer .... probably not. But you'll have to read that and decide it yourself.
Be well all.
