Joe Biden Channels Ray Stantz – UPDATED

Last updated on: March 4, 2017 at 12:02 am By Elizabeth Scalia

Joe Biden, bless his heart, reveals that he never wanted to be a Mayor or anything like that, because that’s too much like having a real job, requiring real work and, you know, real accountability: Vice President Joe Biden offered a frank assessment of his career in remarks at a Democratic fundraiser in Chicago Thursday night. According to a White House pool report, Biden, surrounded by the city’s movers and shakers, praised former Mayor Richard M. Daley and then said:... Read more

Last updated on: March 4, 2017 at 12:02 am By Elizabeth Scalia

For reasons that are not worth going into— at least not yet — I have a question for the Catholic Moms and Dads out there — particularly those of you who home-school, or take main responsibility for your child’s religious formation or teach catechism, yourself. The question is, are you familiar with these out-of-print books? Sixty Saints for Girls Sixty Saints for Boys Secondly, if’n you are familiar with the books, do you like them? If so, why? If not,...

“When shall we begin to do good?” (video fixed)

Last updated on: March 4, 2017 at 12:02 am By Elizabeth Scalia

Last year I had a chance to interview Tony Rossi about The Christopher Awards, and how they emphasize how Christ is borne in the stories, these awards bring to our attention. The latest awards have been announced, and they’ll be presented in May, but over at his blog today, Tony features one of the honored books, Kisses from Katie: a Story of Relentless Love and Redemption, and what an inspiring, humbling story it is! A few years ago, the Tennessee... Read more

Trayvon and Zimmerman: A “good faith” breakdown?

Last updated on: March 4, 2017 at 12:02 am By Elizabeth Scalia

In the comboxes, someone wondered earlier today why I had not written anything about the killing of Trayvon Martin by a “neighborhood watch” volunteer named George Zimmerman. Since I don’t watch the news or read papers anymore, I only became aware of it yesterday, and it seems the political world was slow to come to it, too. It’s a dreadful story; my heart cannot help but go out to the family of Trayvon Martin, and my prayer is that this... Read more

Best Rally Sign I’ve Yet Seen! UPDATES

Last updated on: March 4, 2017 at 12:02 am By Elizabeth Scalia

Photo Credit: Tom Crowe Grabbed off of Facebook, the best picture I’ve yet seen of the “Stand up” rallies, with the best sign. These are two of the Sisters of Reparation to the Most Sacred Heart — the novice is Sister Mary Joseph and the professed sister is Sister John Mary; they are part of a newish, growing community dedicated to the New Evangelization, and — if you can’t make it out — their sign reads: We fed you; we...

Who loves abortion more than Obama and Sebelius? UPDATED

Last updated on: March 4, 2017 at 12:02 am By Elizabeth Scalia

It’s a serious question: is there a politician alive who loves abortion more than Barack Obama? Is there a bureaucrat alive who serves it more faithfully than Kathleen Sebelius? They both put fealty to abortion access before health care for poor women. President Obama’s Department of Health and Human Services has withdrawn $30 million worth of funding from a Texas Medicaid program that provides health care services for low-income women. It did so because Texas recently passed a law that... Read more
