Catholic Leader Who Stood Up to Liberal Hypocrites Promoted!

Pope Names Two New American Cardinals

Two Americans are on today’s list, and neither a surprise, considering the positions they hold: Donald Wuerl, the Archbishop of Washington, D.C., and Raymond Burke, the former Archbishop of St. Louis.

Burke is the head of the Apostolic Signatura in Rome, roughly the equivalent of the Vatican’s Supreme Court. He infuriated liberal Catholics during the 2004 election season when he said that John Kerry would not be welcome to receive communion in St. Louis because of his position on abortion.

He has also said that Catholic politicians who have supported abortion rights and confused the faithful by doing so should repent and do public penance.

The TRUE Catholic Scandal?

Radical Fr. Michael Pfleger to be given lifetime achievement award by Archdiocese of Chicago
by Thomas Peters on April 6th, 2010

Why on earth is the Archdiocese of Chicago giving Father Michael Pfleger a lifetime achievement award?

He is a disastrously disobedient priest who has been a thorn in Cardinal George’s side (and an embarrassment for the Church) for years.

An AmP reader refreshes our memory:

Fr. Pfleger is the same priest who was (temporarily) suspended for joining with a crowd threatening to “snuff out” a gun shop owner. He’s a pal of race-baiter Rev. Wright (of Obama fame). He gave that (in)famous anti-Hillary tirade during the ‘08 primaries.

Michelle Malkin includes more links to Pfleger’s outrageous activities. I don’t share her anti-bishop/Church sentiments, but I do share her disgust with Pfleger’s antics – which demean his priestly ministry – and believe we should take action.

I chronicled Pfleger’s most visible dust-up which occurred in June of 2008, and also did research at the time into Pfleger’s “long habit of rebellion.” My link and Malkin’s should be more than enough to see why Pfleger’s doesn’t deserve any honors, let alone honors from a Catholic archdiocese.

I observed back in 2008 about Pfleger: “If you want an example of the damage caused when problem priests are allowed to persist, you’ve got a classic case right here…”

Now it has only gotten worse.

Please call the Archdiocese of Chicago at 312-534-8200 and demand that Father Pfleger’s award be withdrawn. (His name is pronounced “FLEGER”, I believe – the P is silent).

If Only the Muslims Could Be This Vocal

Bishops slam 'unacceptable' health care bill

Washington (CNN)– The US Conference of Catholic Bishops sent a strongly worded letter to members of the US Senate Friday, terming the abortion language in the Senate Democrats' health care bill "completely unacceptable."

"The new Senate bill is an enormous disappointment, creating new and completely unacceptable federal policy that endangers human life and rights of conscience," reads the letter obtained by CNN Congressional Producer Deirdre Walsh.

The bishops proved their power in the House, when, following direct negotiations with the House Speaker, they forced House Democratic leaders to allow a vote on the Stupak amendment, which introduced firmer restrictions on abortion funding.

The language in the Senate bill regarding abortion coverage is not as specific as the House bill passed earlier this month. In their letter to the Senate, the bishops ask for a similar measure to be added.


"Specifically, we urge you to include the House-passed provision that keeps in place the longstanding and widely supported federal policy against government funding of elective abortions or plans that include elective abortions. "

Catholic members of Congress, like Rhode Island Rep. Patrick Kennedy, have already faced rising pressure from church leaders as debate rages over the language in the Stupak amendment.
