The Economic Errors of the Pope (and other Statists)

Posted on by Jeff Cassman

Catholic statists (including the Pope), like to lecture about “just” wages while they all but ignore issues that are a) real, b) causing great harm to families and c) can be fixed without violating Catholic doctrines on subsidiarity and private property rights. Mention this uncomfortable truth and you’ll be cursed, libeled and then blocked (as I was by Comrade Shea over the weekend).

If you are a Catholic (or even just a person of goodwill) and you are interested in practical ways to fix economic inequalities, why not start with the single largest real threat to wages and private property?

Up is Down, Evil is Good; Rome 2018

Posted on by Jeff Cassman

It’s okay to have Communists pick and consecrate pro-abortion Communists as Bishops, and it’s okay to have heretics, pedophiles and pederast Bishops consecrate heretics, pedophiles and pederasts as Bishops, but if a Catholic Bishop consecrates Catholic priests as Bishops without permission, well, forget the good of souls, that’s like, um, you know, schism and stuff.

Feinstein Plays Her Trump Card on Kavanaugh

Posted on by Jeff Cassman

When the Kavanaugh hearings began on Sep 4, I told you what the Democrats would do. They hijacked the hearings at the very outset with guerrilla tactics. They played their latest dirty trick this weekend with a four decade old unsubstantiated allegation; she claims that when they were both 17, Kavanaugh got drunk and tried to take her clothes off.

Kavanaugh unequivocally denied it and 65 women who knew him in high school went public in his defense, defending his character and conduct at the time, and since. Dozens of other women who have worked with and for him in the intervening decades have come forward defending him. It might not be enough.

The accuser could have come forward and testified (but that would have involved cross examination), and the Democrats could have shared what they knew in July (but that would have undermined the strategy).

They’re not interested in justice, let alone truth. I hope the GOP digs deep to find a backbone and slam this through on a 51-50 vote. If they fail, I hope Trump nominates some firebrand like Amy Coney Barrett who will terrorize the Left with glee for four decades.
