The fact that they think social acceptance is only acquired from the rich is very telling... Their puppet masters are the rich. They cater to the rich.

Do we really want to continue that type of federal government?

Simply because something is insulting doesn't make it false.
So... Dems are willing to write off the Catholic vote?

Interesting...

No they figure Catholics have been beaten down and attacked for so long that they will not stand up for themselves. Considering how much attention has been paid to Hillary's comments on Christians and Catholics than I would say they may be right.

You tell me what religion does not have the same problem? Did she say the same about Islam? Did she say the same about the Jewish? How about the Church of Scientology (one that has plenty of 'stupid ideas').

Perhaps all people of faith should be offended by the Clinton campaign?

What she has shown is that she has no respect for anybody - except her rich 'friends' that can pay. She respects money and power. She wants a legacy and not for time served!

Not in his case.


I attended Catholic schools for 11 years, btw. Sibling volunteers for one a decade plus, just back from a retreat.


This is an outrage.

We have to spread the information on social media because the MSM won't touch it.

Wow, this is disgusting. Religious bigotry anyone? Again, why doesn't the media cover this?
How does two people from American Progress discussing stuff gets attributed to Hillary, especially when Podesta was just cc'd and didn't say anything?

Aren't y'all reaching for it a bit? Without MSM giving this BS some coverage, this is all for naught.
