STENY AND NANCY
Re: The Prowler’s Climbing
Hoyer and Hoyer:
“Hoyer’s bitterness about losing to Pelosi is a bit of mystery.”
Pelosi, nee D’Alessandro, comes from what was Baltimore’s most
powerful political family. Both graduated from D.C. area colleges
in the early 60’s (Hoyer from U. Md. and Pelosi from Trinity
College in D.C.). Hoyer was immersed in politics even then and it’s
inconceivable that any good Democrat could advance in Maryland
politics without blessings from the D’Alessandro’s. So Hoyer had
much contact with young Nancy D’Alessandro and his current
resentment may have roots in male ego. He probably tried to date
her and she laughed at him. Just a guess.

Re: Mark Goldblatt’s Shrum
Rap:
Mr. Goldblatt’s column was right on the money, except for one
tiny thing: Bush v. Gore was settled by a majority decision of 7-2,
NOT 5-4. The “fact” that the decision was 5-4, with the names of
the “Republican” USSC justices usually provided, is ANOTHER of the
DNC’s Big Lies about Election 2000.
Thank you for your excellent online journal,

Right on! It’s about time someone shed some light on this miserable
mess. I’m a retired lawyer, and believe me, it truly boils down to
“it all depends on what your definition of ‘is’ is.” Only, in this
case, it isn’t “is,” it’s “vote.”

There is a much simpler answer to all those Democrat screamers who
say Election 2000 was stolen: If Gore had carried his own state of
Tennessee, he would, at this very moment, be President of the
United States.

ROGER VS. ROGER
Re: George Neumayr’s Roger
the Artful Dodger:
I guess the author doesn’t mind lifting the phrase “Roger the
Dodger” right out of pro football history for his own use to
describe something and someone pretty disgusting (Roger Mahony) and
if you didn’t know, but us Dallas Cowboy fans do, Roger Staubach is
also a good Catholic, so you are insulting him twice. PLEASE!!!! DO
NOT refer to this phrase again, it is offensive to us who know
where it comes from.

I applaud these lines of yours: “Nothing will change fundamentally
in the American Church until the modernist mismanagers in the
episcopal ranks resign.”
And they are “mismanagers” precisely because they are
“modernists,” which, being interpreted, means they are not truly
Catholic, which means, given the opportunity, a traditional
Catholic like myself, rather than addressing them as “eminences”
might be justified in kicking them in their fat behinds and
eschewing any and all loyalty or obedience to them.
I have come to that place. Cardinal Mahony is a lying,
deceitful, hypocritical heretic. Cardinal Law is a joke, a
disgrace, who is not above attempting to share blame with a six
year old and his parents for acts of molestation carried out
against the child. And on it goes. These men are no more deserving
of my support as a Catholic than would be Bengarius or Arius… or
Luther, or Thomas Cranmer, or any number of other heretics and
Church dissidents one can name.

THERE IS HOPE
Re: Jeremy Lott’s Vaticinium
ex eventu:
I am so delighted to read this young man’s column. I so often
despaired for my church over the years and the direction it seemed
to be going in. So often older people (I am 70) look around and
think the world “is going to the dogs” but with young men such as
Jeremy Lott I feel differently. I feel as though we’ve been thrown
a lifeline. God bless.

Re: Enemy Central Bill Bored:
Shame on me for reading this hilarious Enemy Central just before
my Saturday golf match. Oh well, at least now I’ll have an excuse
should I three-putt as I’ll undoubtedly be savoring this all
weekend.

SLIDING HOME
Good site, excellent articles. Your color scheme needs work. The
dour brick red and mauve are cringe-o-genic. Something in shades o’
blue would be easier on the soul.
Still, best wishes…

Just a note to say I’m glad to find you guys back in business. An
article in the Washington Times referred me to your site. As a
long-time reader of the old American Spectator, it’s good to read
your irreverent, humorous insights on today’s events.

After years of subscribing to The American Spectator, when it
changed its focus and style I canceled my subscription. I also
missed the daily on-line Spectator and its writers. Months went by
until I decided to do a search to see if Jackie Mason and Raoul
Felder were still writing their column and where it might be
available. To my joy I was led to The American Prowler, where I
found all my old friends and their columns. Keep up the good work,
sirs and madams. Will you be starting a print version of The
American Prowler?
