New Jesuit Spokesman

(Page 2 of 4)

If all of the bishops in this country were in the model of the great Archbishop Raymond Burke, who not only actually subscribes to Church doctrine, but has the cojones to smack down public Catholic figures who flaunt dissent like adolescent brats, then there never would've been a scandal!
-- Francis M. Hannon, Jr.
Melrose, Massachusetts

Archbishop Burke is the same person who said he would deny Holy Communion to John F. Kerry as a result of his pro-abortion beliefs and actions. God bless Archbishop Burke. We need more principled theologians like him.

I was admitted to St. Louis University in 1975, but its tuition was cost-prohibitive. In hindsight, I am happy that I wasn't inculcated with watered down Catholicism.

As a practicing Catholic, I am confounded by the fact that most political bumper stickers that I see in the parking lot when I am attending Mass support pro-abortion candidates. I guess that Marxism trumps the pro-life movement when it comes to Catholics and political candidates.

I vote exclusively pro-life, and I simply cannot understand how any practicing Catholic would not do the same.
-- Christopher A. Hall

It all goes back to the First Political Law of the Universe: It all depends on whose ox is being gored (no reference to Majerus's weight intended).

HONK IF YOU LOVE GIULIANI
Re: Philip Klein's Honking for Rudy:

As the article "Honking for Rudy" suggests, many here in Florida believe Rudy Giuliani has the best credentials for leading America. He is a decisive conservative who doesn't mold his beliefs around popular media pablum. Perhaps this is the true reason the media is writing him off here and elsewhere. Rudy's proven independence makes him anathema in a culture of spin, slant and media co-option. He isn't afraid to disagree, to stake a position and hold it and to ignore public punditry that offers garner free campaign coverage. No matter the pre-primary polling that tries to steer us like sheep, this voter stands with Rudy!

THERE GOES FLORIDA
Re: The Prowler's Heavy-Handedness Backfires:

Hey, Prowler, why don't you try to get serious in your reporting? There was never any doubt that Sen. Martinez was going to endorse Sen. McCain. It was only a question of timing. Martinez was one of the leading lights in the McCain-Kennedy-Bush illegal alien amnesty debacle. If you believed any disinformation that Martinez might remain neutral, then you are too naive to be let out of the house without a chaperone/guardian. As for Crist, he is proof that Florida is finally tipping into the squishy moderate column after decades of the Cuban community and the North Florida/Panhandle area keeping it in the conservative column. Even the Dems in North Florida and the Panhandle were relatively conservative until recent years. At least Romney has the cajones to use hardball politics. He has learned a little something. The Dems have been playing hardball for decades while the GOP elected politicians cowered in the corner.
-- Ken Shreve

You state that Romney's campaign "has been able to use its candidate's unfettered wealth to run a successful absentee ballot program, something the other campaigns have not been able to do."

Unlike the Kennedys, Romney earned his wealth (yes, I know his father was also wealthy). Running a campaign in an organized, successful way, indicates to me that Romney is definitely prepared to take over the reigns of an office as complex as the President of the U.S.
-- Lucille McClure
San Jose, California

Hailing from Florida and being very familiar with the Romney team there, it is despicable on your behalf to write such blatant lies about the Romney team.

Governor Crist and Senator Martinez have been on the McCain bandwagon since the 2006 election when McCain was campaigning for Charlie Crist. And, Crist would never endorse Romney because the people who work for him are Jeb Bush operatives, all of the which the Governor really dislikes. After Crist won the governor's seat in 2006, he wouldn't even think about hiring any of the Jeb Bush operatives even though they are well respected in Florida.

I know some of you staff writers dislike Romney, but to lie about why Crist and Martinez endorsed McCain causes me to lose respect for your establishment.
