The Bishop Takes The Queen

Queen Nancy Pelosi made some rather ridiculous statements regarding the Catholic Church’s position on abortion and despite being corrected by sever members of the clergy, she continued with her misguided statements. Now her Archbishop would like to have a word with her. San Francisco Archbishop George H. Niederauer wrote a letter to the Queen requesting an audience with her to discuss whether she should receive communion. Pelosi agreed to the meeting.
The Church is pretty clear on its position regarding abortion. How Nancy Pelosi got the idea that she was qualified to challenge that position is beyond me. Perhaps she was trying to rationalize her pro murder position but whatever the reason, this was clearly “above her pay grade.”
Here is a novel idea. Perhaps Pelosi should stick to her duties as a Congresswoman and leave the religious stuff to the experts. I am sure the Archbishop will agree not to get involved in Congressional business if Pelosi stays out of the Church’s business.

The “above my pay grade” comment is getting a lot of use by the Dems lately, Obama & Biden have both used it to dodge a question.
While not as bad as Pelosi, Biden’s performance on Meet the Press was pretty pathetic. He babbled on and on about his faith vs. other people’s faith yet seemed to miss the fact that most people of faith (no matter what faith or denominaton) agree that life begins at conception.
I’m not as hard line on abortion as most other conservatives, I think there are instances where it may be necessary or warranted (mostly involving high risks to the mothers health, rape/incest, and severe mental/physical problems for the child) but never ever should be considered as “birth control”.
The Thunder Run has linked to this post in the – Web Reconnaissance for 09/09/2008 A short recon of what’s out there that might draw your attention, updated throughout the day…so check back often.
Narcissistic slobbering morons like Nancy Pelosi think they are the experts on everything and their pay grade actually is above and beyond the church. I can’t stand this woman. It’s hard for me to imagine this woman is a product of the beautiful Saint Leo’s Parish in Baltimore’s Little Italy district. I wonder what her former parishioners think of Pelosi now?
I voted for Pelosi.
It takes a brave man to admit his mistakes Adam…

So true, so true. Adam, just because one can do something does not mean one should do something…
Nancy must go. A true progressive could not and should not support this poor excuse of a politician.But she’s better than that lying crap sack Sarah Palin anyday.
