Via the American Papist which is really where you should check first on any Catholic issue.

I’ll take him over Fr. Reese any day.

I actually think this ND stuff is why he didn’t do the national day of prayer thing.

Nancy Pelosi doesn’t seem to have a firm grasp of language as he maintains this proves she didn’t know about waterboarding:

“As this document shows, the speaker was briefed only once, in September 2002,” said Daly. “The briefers described these techniques, said they were legal, but said that waterboarding had not yet been used.” (emphasis mine)

Let me give a message to the speaker of the house, when someone says: “Not Yet” that means its going to happen and I can speak from the following experience:

Back when I was dating my wife we went to cape cod for Valentine’s day. I had a comic store at that time and sold baseball cards. We visited a store on the cape and was talking to the owner. I then introduced Valery and had this exchange:

“Is this your wife?”

“Not Yet.”

At this point the alarms went off in my head and in her eyes. I hadn’t proposed yet, although I was thinking of it. In fact a friend who was so convinced that I would rush to propose bet me that I couldn’t hold off till May. I took that bet.

For the rest of the day she looked at me with a big grin. The next morning I explained the bet and asked her hypothetically if she would marry me. She hypothetically agreed and we planned the wedding on the spot.

So after 21 years of marriage Nancy let me tell you something; if someone says “Not Yet” that means it’s coming, as if you didn’t know.

…is dead at 92.

If his brother Joe never made the majors Dominic might have been a bigger name in baseball, but he was still a 7 time all star.

Big loss for baseball but a very fine life.

Update: The Red Sox did manage to score a few without him yesterday.

6:27 a.m. If only 600,000 jobs lost that’s good?

6:44 a.m. Focus on the family is not opposed to a gay supreme court justice, what a bunch of bigots they are eh?

6:52 a.m. Dominic Dimaggio is dead. That is a huge hit to Red Sox Nation, my older brother knew him.

6:59 a.m. Notice that they won’t show the actual Miss California picture, because it is a side shot that doesn’t actually show anything. It’s the old Errol Flynn business let people imagine it is worse than it is.

7:51 a.m Ariana takes on Peggy on the clicking through vs changing the channel.

7:52 a.m. Mika is exactly right about the forced ad overlay. I hate them!

8:08 a.m. I understand the old America, when people humiliated other people, I don’t understand how people humiliate themselves.

8:10 a.m. Weren’t these same people arguing about newspapers being needed when the MSN suppressed this story for months?

8:42 a.m. The state of American journalism is discussed, it is a story about money.
