Finally, a Religious Leader with Guts

"In a nutshell, Fr. Newman told his parishioners that if they voted for Barack Obama, they embraced “intrinsic evil” since Obama's opponent was a “plausible pro-life alternative.” And as a result, those Obama voters need to seek forgiveness from God before they receive Holy Communion again.

Does this guy have guts, or what?"

Darn Fred, it seems like its always one step forward, two steps back for you Godforsaken conservitards lately.

Catholic church officially repudiates Father Newman

Make sure you read the second article in that link....seems old Father Newman worships Mammon almost as much as he worships God.

He got the "In a nutshell" part right.

Hey Fred, here's a shining example of the type of crap social conservatives, like Rev. Jay Newman, are spreading in their "real American" communities.

Madison county, one of the most conservative counties in Idaho, and possibly the country (votes 96% Republican), is breeding little hate-filled bigots, who were showcased on their local news recently, for chanting "assassinate Obama" on their elementary school buses.

These are little children who don't even know the meaning of the word "assassinate" but who have obviously been listening to their parents rants at home. Very Christiany, indeed.

Is this really the future of the GOP??!!

You were mentioning folks that don't have a life outside of presidential politics. I've summoned you. You must do the rest to try and heard this straggler back into the reality pen. Good luck Eye-wink.

He is not nuts. Just wants politicians to work for Jerry Falwell--even if he is dead!

"...Obama voters need to seek forgiveness from God before they receive Holy Communion again."

I really hope that the Repub's continue to embrace intolerant social conservatism... I really do, because they will continue to lose national and state level elections. Look what has happened to Saxby, Norm Coleman, and Ted Stevens... losing, or have lost, by the skin of their teeth or in Saxby's case, hanging on by a thread.

Yup, keep embracing that tone, Fred. You do wonders for the Repub party.

(Repub's = R.I.P.)
