All is well, as American

All is well, as American Catholics, like Maureen, have got the gals' backs, in keeping with their longstanding Vatican-bashing tradition; from Nick Kristof's April 28 column, "We Are All Nuns":

Since the papal crackdown on nuns, they have received an outpouring of support. “Nuns were approached by Catholics at Sunday liturgies across the country with a simple question: ‘What can we do to help?’ ” The National Catholic Reporter recounted. It cited one parish where a declaration of support for nuns from the pulpit drew loud applause, and another that was filled with shouts like, “You go, girl!”

I get so frustrated with Maureen from time to time; then she hits one out of the park.

I rechecked her bio:

Dowd graduated from Immaculata High School in 1969.

Five kids in her family just like mine; probably from a good Catholic family.

Thanks for the link, for sure!

Kind of reminds me of critiques of Santorum around here; I mean the guy has an obsession with the ole in and out as they say.

Richard, no one can rant on

Richard, no one can rant on this topic like the bishops' uber she-devil enemy, Maureen; here's her conclusion

Church leaders behave like adolescent boys, blinded by sex. That’s the problem with inquisitors and censors: They become fascinated by what they deplore.

The pope needs what the rest of us got from nuns: a good rap across the knuckles.

Just wanted to make sure you didn't miss it

This is too late to be recognized.

But damn, that is one of the nicest things anyone ever said about me.

No kidding!

That's all right Peracles!

I hereby render unto Peracles the Dayly Line of the Day for this here Dagblog Site; given to all of him from all of me. hahhahahahahahahah

By the by, I have grown to just love the Dead. I mean I have caught the Dead doin Dylan and others and they had something!

If music moves me it moves me.

And you already know I just love to reprint lyrics that I like no matter where they come from!

Not a deadhead either, but

Not a deadhead either, but occasionally they had a line that hit me like fine ripple, such as Wharf Rat:

"Half of my life, I spent doin' time for some other fucker's crime,
The other half found me stumbling 'round drunk on Burgundy wine."

In my youth I spent half my money on women and likker.

The other half I wasted. Ba-dump.

I never heard this one! I was

I never heard this one!

I was never a dead head. Hell, I never really heard the Dead until the 80's on VH-1. I get off from work and hear Sting or Counting Crows or some such and then get the two Dead Head hits.

That frickin nugent--whom I had never heard--will go on an on about hippies and deadheads and how they should all be killed. And I catch Bono dissing hippies with his hair and tats and earings...

What exactly did Hippies do to anyone?

The Wall Street protesters are really not a movement.

The teabaggers are a joke. I have read several discussions how some members would diss wall street and Fox would excise all comments concerning coporate pigs from their presentations and keep filming signs saying that minorities suck...

Oh well....

I kind of like the lilt though!
