Not More Nancy Nonsense!

1. When they called it a "stimulus package", I didn't think they meant that kind of stimulus -- there's millions of dollars for contraceptives in the "save the economy bill". The unspeakable Speaker of the House defends this as "economic stimulus" because, you see, it reduces government costs by reducing the number of needy people.

2. Our government is once again in the business of exporting death, now that the 100% anti-life President has overturned the Mexico City Policy, and we once again will be providing federal funds to the international branch of the Cult of Moloch. Our Bishops respond. A Vatican spokesman puts it more bluntly, speaking of the "arrogance" of power.

3. Meanwhile, the 100% anti-life President calls on us to end this "stale and fruitless debate" about abortion. In other words, he wants us to sit down, shut up and let him do whatever he wants.

4. Still waiting for all those "pro-life" folks who supported the 100% anti-life President to flex their muscles to influence his policies (a one-day delay in the Mexico City Policy reversal really doesn't cut it), or at least to protest his pro-abortion moves so far. Holding my breath. Pretty much turning blue now.

5. A new website that is intended to hold to accountability those Catholics and Evangelicals who supported the 100% anti-life President, headed by Robert George and other worthies.

6. From the "News of the Incredibly Bloody Obvious" department: not having sex on the first date can help a woman find a good man. I bet it also decreases one's chances of getting asked out on second dates by perverts and losers.

7. Fascinating montage of photos from Fatima on the day the sun danced. If only there had been a movie camera!

8. Please pray for the repose of the soul of Msgr. William Smith, the great moral theologian of St. Joseph's Seminary, who passed into eternal life on Saturday. He was a holy man whose intelelect, wit, and holiness educated and inspired a generation of clergy and laity.

9. Blogged about the March the other day. I'm going to blog today about Exporting Death.
