TKC MUST READ!!! KANSAS CITY CATHOLIC MAG OFFERS HIGH PRAISE FOR SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI AGAINST PREZ TRUMP!!!
This alternative faith community magazine is a long running operation headquartered in Kansas City.
The National Catholic Reporter moniker shouldn't fool careful readers. Fact is, the editorial opinions of this mag have often clashed with mainstream Catholic thinking and they've earned rebuke from many local religious leaders for their critical coverage. To be fair, they've been years ahead of the so many other cowtown Catholics in demanding reform against sexual predator priests.
Through it all, they have an intensely loyal following and deserve consideration as opinion-makers.
Here's their year-end political pronouncement . . .
NCR's 2019 newsmaker of the year: Nancy Pelosi
Opening line . . .
"For steady and thoughtful service to the nation at a time of extraordinary challenge and for exemplifying, in all its complexity, a public and, in this case, political role in which her Catholicism acts as a kind of moral bedrock, NCR names Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi as our Catholic newsmaker of the year.
"The life of the nation has been dominated by President Donald Trump for four long years. His dominance has been all the more remarkable because no one, not a Republican nor a Democrat, not a politician nor cultural critic, seemed up to the task of challenging him or exposing him for the morally bankrupt character he is. Until Pelosi became speaker."
After obsessing about a Twitter photo . . . The rest of the missive mostly attempts to explain away the INHERENT CONFLICT AND CRISIS OF CONSCIENCE CONFRONTED BY PROGRESSIVE CATHOLICS OVER ABORTION.
Their reasoning is strained, confused and incongruous with the otherwise lofty language of the declaration. Overall, the abortion "explanation" for these pro-Pelosi Catholics reads more like a partisan playbook not a testament to guiding principals for people of faith.
Still . . .
Their conclusion gets back on track and shares a more mainstream, progressive endorsement of this stalwart leader for her work beyond mere photo posturing.
You decide . . .
makes sense for them.
ReplyDeleteThey need to spin the impeachment their way. Making it a women vs. men argument helps their cause in the long run and for the future. It's all about donations.
All of this is why we need to rethink churches and religious organizations have non profit tax exempt status.

ReplyDeleteas a life-long Catholic..I've never heard of nor cared about this "NCR"
Billy Tammy has a column in the NCR...since he routinely bashes Catholics this shows that the whole thing is phony. NCR IS A FAKE SOURCE.
ReplyDeleteP-Lousy is a dago Catholic. Trump is a Presbyterian. No question who the Catholic Church is gonna side with.
ReplyDeleteNancy Pelosi never claims to be a believer...she just keeps saying she "grew up in a Catholic hosehold". Given her position on allowing almost unlimited abortions we now that she is a hater and a liar. If she prays for Trump...if indeed she prays at all...her prayer is that he has a coronary.
ReplyDeleteNCR just refuses to bow before the self righteous, egotistical catholic church leaders. They question rather than blindly follow.
ReplyDeleteTOP PHOTO -- THE SPEAKER IS A "MADAM"
ReplyDeleteThe National Catholic Reporter is to Catholicism
like
Planned Parenthood is to Parenthood!!!
^^^Perfect description.
ReplyDelete10:47: Do you mean Nancy Pelosi believes women should have the right to decide whether to be incubators or not?
ReplyDeleteAnd while I would not blame her for praying for Trump to have a coronary, I doubt that you can state that you know this is a fact. I hope Trump stays healthy through the election, since Pence would be a much more difficult candidate to defeat.
12:40, YES...she believes women should have the right to kill their own offspring.
ReplyDeleteFools who eliminate their own descendants deserve Darwin Awards,
Did the Catholics get a kick back from the Ukraine too ?
ReplyDeleteNancy palooza is doing the peelousy two step, she knows Trump isn’t going anywhere and can’t be beat next november
ReplyDeleteGiuliani said the corruption in Ukraine most likely started in 2012 during the Obama administration and involved at least two major schemes, one for $7.5 billion and another for $5 billion.
ReplyDeleteHe backed his claims with bank and court records that show a million-dollar money trail leading from Ukraine to a fake company in Latvia, then to Cyprus, and finally to the board members of Burisma, the Ukrainian natural gas firm whose board included Hunter Biden and business partner Devon Archer.

ReplyDeleteFuck that worthless cunt
ReplyDeleteI used to be a born and bred Catholic. I moved on 30 years ago to another and never regretted it. Screw NCR & CT for their socialist/communist views of the world. Merry F'ing Christmas to thosee two old rags.
ReplyDeleteNick for the win! Perhaps a tad more eloquent than I might have stated but spot-on in substance.
ReplyDeleteNancy isn’t allowed to take communion because of her support of killing unborn babies.
ReplyDeleteCatholics can’t support Pelosi.
It’s wrong.
She is wrong.
God doesn’t hear her fake prayers for the President.
Her intentions are twisted... like how could she be genuine?
She is 80 and wears a bra that suggests her tits are level.
She is a liar.
Two articles of impeachment so transparently empty that they look like windows into the vacated soul of the Democratic Party.
ReplyDeleteAnd now consider all this vectoring into the catastrophe that the Democratic primary has become heading into election 2020. Joe Biden? Really? Are they serious? He left a slime trail as wide as the DC Beltway around his doings as Veep, with enough video evidence to make the College of Cardinals weep for his post-mortal prospects. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders might be moved to study up on what just happened in the UK election, and weigh how US voters might be disposed to another four-year beat-down with the cudgels of inclusion and diversity plus the shady blandishments of free everything. And what else can you show me? Mayor Pete and Cory Booker, two pieces of defective merchandise cluttering up the showroom?
As ever, Jim
12:47: And yet it's their business and none of yours. If you oppose abortions, don't have one. Let others live their own lives. After all, YOU COULD BE WRONG.
ReplyDelete2:52: And any of that is your business because... ?
^^^^ easy there soy boi, he’s right and you know it.
ReplyDeleteTwo presidents have been impeached for humiliating Hillary Clinton.
ReplyDeleteThe Church is K Street, DuPont Circle and Georgetown.
ReplyDeleteThe Pope needs to be impeached...we need a war Pope, a fighter, not the pussy we have now.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteAfter just 11 days in office—Barack Obama was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize
After just 19 minutes in office—Donald Trump was being nominated for impeachment by the media
That tells you everything you need to know about how unfairly this president has been treated
And yet you claim this whining draft dodging Crybaby is going to be tough on Crime and stand up to Other Countries?
ReplyDeleteWhen? After the Coward gets over curling up in a ball on the floor and sucking his thumb because someone stood up to him?
Or maybe between sleepless nights of name-calling and pissing himself on Twitter?
Yes he gets no respect, he's being treated just like you Right Wingnuts treated Obama for eight years, except that Obama didn't whine about your horseshit lies, he had guts enough to ignore them and act like and adult.
6:10 Grow up soy boi, you whine like a little girl! Hahaha!
ReplyDelete^^^^and yet unlike you, his wife is still alive and he doesn’t spend every useless minute of his life on here because he can’t face his crippling loneliness like you do. Weird. Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of fucking moron would think obama and his gang of America hating negroes were even qualified to run a day care. The pieces of shit leftist almost flushed the country down the toilet. The only thing that saved the country is anybody with any money moved it out of the country away from the democrat criminals. Then when a real president was elected aka trump the real administration immediately threw everything the democrat traitors did in the trash guess what it all came back to America. The leftist democrat criminals can’t stand it because he immediately made them all look like worthless school kid morons. So fuck pelosi schiff nadler swawell all the pieces of shit they all ought to be tried for treason and shot
ReplyDeleteThe usual leftist comeback to the truth doesn’t bother me at all. With any luck in the future we’ll be able to relocate all you queers to Venezuela where you belong. I hear flamingo is really tasty boiled you worthless piece of shit
ReplyDeleteTry it, Punk!
ReplyDeleteIt's easy to shoot your keyboard off here, but you start trying any of that crap and you'll get your ass smacked so hard you'll go whimpering back to Mommy's Basement and cry just like your gutless God Trump!
The American People won't put up with your shit for a day, and the few of you who crawl out into the daylight will find out just how many True Americans are sick and tired of your horseshit!
^^^^Grampy, I believe you were told to shut your cocksucking mouth while we’re watching the game! If you can’t, we’re going to start putting antifreeze in your Metamucil. Now go watch Matlock alone.
ReplyDeleteChimpy, chimpy. You never learn. We own you! Lol
DeleteCATHOLICS BUTTFUCK KIDS SO WHO GIVES A SHIT WHAT THEY SAY
ReplyDeleteThere has long been a schism in the Catholic Church between conservatives and liberals. The conservatives will point to the liberals support of abortion as an apostasy, while the liberals will point to conservative support for the death penalty as hypocrisy.
ReplyDeleteI think a true Catholic is pro-life and against the death penalty, charitable as a private actor.
Much of the liberal wing of the church gets caught up in leftist ideology and confuses the impulsion to charity with socialist centralized planning. Charity must be volitional -one can't choose to be charitable if the government (secular at that) takes that decision away and impels them indirectly to charity.
