Supress the Debate

ChelseaAmendment 2, Politics2 Comments

That’s the goal of The Missouri Coalition for Lifesaving Cures, backers of Amendment 2. After KRCG TV ran an ad by the Life Communications Fund warning voters of the “tricky” and deceptive language of Amendment 2, the Coalition sent a letter to the station threatening legal action if they play it, or any other ad from this, “irresponsible organization and … Read More

The fundraising reports for the November elections have been filed and the proponents of Amendment 2 have blown everyone out of the water, breaking every record on campaign spending. Out of the $28.7 million “raised” by the Missouri Coalition for Lifesaving Cures, $28 million came from one wealthy couple, Jim and Virginia Stowers. The Stowers’ are also the primary benefactors … Read More

Alright, so I think I am one of the last Catholic bloggers to blog this sticker. My mother thinks it should say, “You can’t be Catholic and pro Claire.” It disturbs me greatly that any Catholic could be endorsed by Pro-Choice America, or even think that abortion should be, “safe, legal and rare.” Claire recently used her Catholic faith to … Read More

Here is a lovely little ad about Amendment 2 by Missourians Against Human Cloning that you can pass along to all of your friends. The ad stresses the fact that this Amendment will provide a blank check to the biotech industry in Missouri using the tax payer’s money. Read the Amendment, it’s in there! Yet another good reason to vote … Read More

This picture is from the Eldon Turkey Festival earlier today. I went down there to help out my good friend Fr. Fred Elskamp at Sacred Heart parish. It was a pretty good turn out with two pro-life, anti-cloning displays. For some reason the pro-cloning people paid for a spot, but never showed up. But, hey, I’m not complaining. Well, if … Read More

Missouri Bishops’ Letter

ChelseaAmendment 2, ReligionLeave a Comment

The good bishops of Missouri have issued a letter to all the faithful regarding Amendment 2, most importantly urging us to vote no. “We Catholics in the State of Missouri must bring our knowledge of the moral truth to bear upon our choices, especially when participating in the democratic process. Our “least brethren” are depending upon us. Our Lord Jesus … Read More

Respect Life Month

ChelseaAmendment 2, ReligionLeave a Comment

October is Respect Life Month and here in Missouri we are trying very hard to help ensure that Missourians will continue to respect life by voting no on Amendment 2 this November. At my parish we are relying heavily on the power of the Blessed Virgin Mary and praying the Rosary Crusade Safeguarding Embryonic Human Life, put out by the … Read More

Greetings From Naples!

I am blogging to you from sunny south Florida right now. I’m in Naples visiting friends of mine at Ave Maria University. I’ve got some free time in my hotel right now, so I thought I’d do a little post (gosh, I sound like my dad – the master blogger). Well, it has happened…I have been blogged. Yesterday my dad … Read More
