Come on, Notre Dame......

Notre Dame Obama Commencement Speech Stirs Catholic Opposition

No Kidding?

"More than 87,000 names have been added to an online petition launched by a conservative Catholic group calling for the University of Notre Dame to rescind its invitation to President Obama to speak at its May 17 commencement ceremony."

The petition calls it "an outrage and a scandal" that Notre Dame, one of the nation's leading Catholic universities, would honor Obama. The petition says the president's pro-choice views and support for embryonic stem cell research "directly contradict fundamental Catholic teachings on life and marriage."

Notre Dame President the Rev. John I. Jenkins, seemed unmoved by the burgeoning protest. He issued a statement calling Obama "an inspiring leader" who is courageously grappling with the huge challenges confronting the country. Further, he called Obama and a "healer" who has "spoken eloquently and movingly about race in this nation."

"Rev. Jenkins", if I may? There is only One "Healer", and His Teachings that You are supposed to adhere to....hence that "Rev." before your name. Try hard to keep that in mind when making statements to the press.

Forget who I'm speaking of? Just walk on over to the football stadium and glance at the end zone.........

Don't be surprised at the reaction of Catholics to this......yup, he is our President, but an adherent to the Catholic Doctrine, he sure isn't.

Keep your Faith and your Values, whatever they might be........

Oh, I forgot.....it's "Obama".......My Bad.

A Few Country Truisms.......

Attributed to Will Rogers.......

1. Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.

2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.

3. There are 2 theories to arguing with a woman... neither works.

When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

Hey........

Remember way back in October when I related our Civil War Re-enactment adventure?

No? Didn't think so.....well, back then I posted a photo or two, and promised to try and do a slide show. I'm a bit too computer challenged for the task, but M'Lady Dragn is not, and she put together a You-Tube of it, and added some very good background music from the U.S.Army Choir.....

I hope you enjoy.....and if you're ever around one of these things, I highly recommend seeing it.

A Story..........

I went to look at a Project the other day that was in a large public parking lot.

I was only inside for about fifteen minutes, and when I came out there was a motorcycle cop writing a parking ticket.

So I went up to him and said, ‘Come on buddy, how about giving a fellow a break?’

He ignored me and continued writing the ticket for taking up two parking spaces.

So I called him a stupid idiot.

He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having bald tires!

Then I really got angry at him. I questioned his parentage and his sexuality.

He finished the second ticket and put it on the car with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket!

This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

I didn’t care.

My car was parked around the corner.
I hate people who park like that………..

Ilove Cops.....I wouldn't really do that.

Murtha and the Wrong Reward..........

Gotta pass this along.....

I have just read and signed the online petition:

"Don't Honor John Murtha"

hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online petition
service, at: MURTHA

I personally agree with what this petition says, and I think you might
agree, too. If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider
signing yourself.

Mine was Signature #42310, with the following comment: "With a total disregard for Facts, Murtha threw Marine Combat Troops under a Bus of his own making, for personal gain. He should be shamed, not honored."

Semper Fi.
