Achbishop responds, be careful what you ask for and SFB's triage of the world's problems

A man for all seasons.

In the post under Lex notes, in an attempt to intimidate him, San Fran Grand Nan Peloser sent SF’s Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone a letter telling him he should not attend a Jun rally for traditional marriage at the Supreme Court.  Lex suggested a one line response to Peloser.

The archbishop did respond and in fact shared many of Lex’s thoughts, but as one might expect, the archbishop’s response was much more thoughtful, thorough and eloquent.  Archbishop Cordileone translates Lex speak.

Lex:

5,000 years of history, 2,000 years of religious teaching and natural law are pretty thin gruel when stacked up against the homocentric, vengeful and hateful Gay Gestapo and their media propaganda machine.

Archbishop Cordileone:

It gives me assurance that we share a common disdain for harsh and hateful rhetoric. It must be pointed out, though, that there is plenty of offensive rhetoric which flows in the opposite direction. In fact, for those who support the conjugal understanding of marriage, the attacks have not stopped at rhetoric. Simply for taking a stand for marriage as it has been understood in every human society for millennia, people have lost their jobs, lost their livelihoods, and have suffered other types of retribution, including physical violence.

Lex:

Hey IDIOT!  Supporting traditional marriage is NOT condemning anyone.

Archbishop Cordileone:

The March for Marriage is not “anti-LGBT” (as some have described it)… Rather, it is a pro-marriage March.  The latter does not imply the former.  Rather, it affirms the great good of bringing the two halves of humanity together so that a man and a woman may bond with each other and with any children who come from their union.

Catholic Charities stretched thin due to border crisis

There’s a certain amount of Schadenfreude in that headliner.  The USCCB were all for open borders.  Now it seems the church’s resources are not enough to meet the situation they advocated for.  You know, sort of like the nation’s resources.  This situation reminds me the old Toyota commercial tag line - You asked for it.  You got it. Toyota!  You asked for it.  You got it.  Chaos!

Apparently King SFB never watched M*A*S*H

In the 70’s I learned the meaning of the French word “triage” from the TV show M*A*S*H.  King SFB never watched the show.  How do I know that?  He doesn’t know the meaning of the word “triage.”  As the world descends into chaos, here’s SFB “to do list” triaged in order of importance to him:

Go golfing

Plan next 110 vacations before leaving White House

Have IRS lose Lois Learner’s e-mails

Have NSA dig up dirt on Tea Party candidates

Plan campaign fund raising for 6 days week until leaving office

Blame Bush for economy

Blame Bush for Iraq

Blame Bush for Iran

Blame Bush for gas prices

Blame Bush VA

Blame Bush for the border mess
Blame Bush for…

Now, like everything on this page, that’s tongue in cheek, but how in the hell can King SFB go golfing when the Middle East is in total chaos, our southern border is in chaos, the economy is in a shambles and you need a Ouija Board to keep track of the myriad scandals that SFB first claimed he was unaware of, then claimed he was mad as hell about, then claimed were phony.  The scandals may be “phony” but the body count decidedly is not.  We have dead vets,  a dead ambassador, dead embassy workers, a dead border patrol agent, dead Mexicans and the count continues to rise. 

So SFB goes golfing.  Good call.  That’s just what we’d expect from a no load, affirmative action, pass through POS.

 

I wonder if Archbishop Cordileone could translate that thought into something a bit more presentable?
