My latest article for the Examiner At least once more Miss Swan is now up at Examiner.com
The title comes from the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie and alludes to how many times Tea Party members will have to take abuse from counter protesters before the media notices the difference in tone.
When an anti-tea party protester can reportedly can call a Jewish relative of Holocaust victims a Nazi and nobody bats an eyelash there is something seriously wrong.

Thomas Moore liberal Arts College in Southern NH had a booth:
Magdalen College also attended but didn’t go on Camera with us. Strangely enough The College of the Holy Cross, Assumption College and Anna Maria college, all in Worcester had no presence at all. You would think colleges in Worcester that proclaim themselves Catholic would bother to show up. Feel free to contact them and ask why.
A Vatican representative from Rome attended promoting pilgrimages to holy places. Journey of the Spirit is the web site.
This is exactly the type of woman (a faithful Italian) that my mother urged each one of her sons to marry. Alas for mom none of us did.
As a member of the Knights of Columbus I would be derelict in my duty to not give my group a plug:
There were actually three Knights booth there. I actually joined the Knights at the Men’s conference last year.
Finally you likely have heard of ETWN but you might not have heard of Catholic TV. If you haven’t Bonnie Rogers solves that problem.
