As I was turning over my compost pile this weekend, having read Jonah's Islam column and a report on the conflict over abortion between Congressboy Patrick Kennedy and his Catholic bishop, I had a revelation. The search for a moderate Islam (or, more narrowly, a pro-American Islam ) is so difficult because a "moderate Muslim" is like a "Catholic for choice" -- there are lots of...

Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey, a Democrat from California, says the government needs to wake up and take a close look at the dangerous religious extremists who live among us. Catholics?

It is an attempt to establish a theocracy to take charge of our politics and our legislation. It is an attempt to make the legislative power of this country subordinate to the church. It is not only to unite Church and State, but it is to put the State in subordination to the dictates of the church. And another quote. I expect political hardball on any legislation as important as the health care bill....

In the comment thread of my previous post , CatherineD wrote: Well, let's talk about the bishops. If they're writing and/or directly influencing legislation, then they no longer qualify as 501(c) tax exempts. Let the IRS go for broke now. For our overseas friends who may not know: that tax-exempt status in the US means that an institution cannot lobby or take a position on legislation. I experienced...

This one is from a Congresswoman who isn't particularly fond of the right of the people to petition the Government for a redress of grievances: Lynn Woolsey: IRS should scrutinize bishops I expect political hardball on any legislation as important as the health care bill. I just didn’t expect it from the United States Council of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). Who elected them to Congress? The role...

Lynn Woolsey (D-CA): The IRS is less restrictive about church involvement in efforts to influence legislation than it is about involvement in campaigns and elections. Given the political behavior of USCCB in this case, maybe it shouldn’t be. The Congressman is not only attacking the Catholic Church, but attacking all those who disagree. UPDATE: The Antique Media thinks the [...]

The Democratic instinct to crush free speech is surpassed only its sister predisposition to crush religion. So it really is no surprise that Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey is suggesting that the IRS revisit the Catholic Church's tax-exempt status. In her own...

My former congresswoman: I expect political hardball on any legislation as important as the health care bill. I just didn’t expect it from the United States Council of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). Who elected them to Congress? The role the bishops played in the pushing the Stupak amendment, which unfairly restricts access for low-income women to insurance coverage for abortions, was more than mere...

The Democrats have a number of members being investigated for corruption. The FBI is looking into a few. William Jefferson (D-LA) is going to jail. The House Democratic Leadership is blocking other investigations. Both Murtha and Rangel have issues. But Lynn Woolsey, Chairman of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, that congressional body that takes pride in the Progressive Movement’s eugenics...
