Madame speaker, who is a Catholic, has a history of contradicting the Pope, the Bishops and the teachings of the Catholic Church.  It has not been widely reported for some reason, but here she goes again, only this time she agrees with the Church:

I have to confess that Speaker Pelosi’s personality really irritates me. Like a burr in a Texans saddle.  She is a prime example of a woman not improving the political arena.  IMHO women who seek power do not bring a gentler touch.

Note to self: Speaker Pelosi is a child of God made in His image and likeness.

Anyway, I don’t know what she thinks she gains by going up against the hierarchy of the Church e.g; here the Bishops issue a public correction and here where the Pope issued a rebuke

Now I am all for treating Immigrants with dignity and respect. I am a second generation Irish/Italian. My husband is a naturalized citizen; he was born and raised in Ireland. Immigrants are the backbone of this country. Besides someone has to pay for my (and my fellow boomers) Social Security.

Heck I am all for amnesty.  I think that the new Arizona law is a terrible idea. Yes I understand that Arizona has a real problem with drug gangs from south of the border, but the new law is a bad response.

But Ms. Pelosi is stepping over a line. Her power does not extend to the hierarchy of the Church.  And she simply has no credibility considering her opposition to the Church’s teachings on the most fundamental aspect of moral law: the right to life from conception to natural death.

But I am encouraged that politicians now think that it is okay for the clergy to address the public square from the pulpit. I just hope someone has informed the IRS.
