BULLETS
June 2010
- The surprise isn’t so much that the Republican National Committee paid for donors’ visits to a lesbian bondage club; rather, the surprise is that the media or Democrats object.
- “I’ve been wondering,” writes the NY Times’ Maureen Dowd, “given the vitriolic reaction of the New York archbishop to my column defending nuns and the dismissive reaction of the Vatican to my column denouncing the church’s response to the pedophilia scandal, if they are able to take a woman’s voice seriously.” Maureen, the Church reveres Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, and Therese of Lisieux as Doctors of the Church; it’s you she doesn’t take seriously.
- The Catholic League’s Bill Donohue questions whether the Pope should visit England, citing “ominous signs:” “over 100,000 Brits have signed ‘certificates of de-baptism’”; “hate-ridden atheists” are “paying anti-Catholic lawyers” to research “arresting the pope for ‘crimes against humanity;’” “Catholic bashing by the British media is flourishing;” and, “freedom of speech and freedom of religion are in a very tenuous state for Christians.” If the early Church had adopted Donohue’s approach, there’d have been no Age of Martyrs. St. Ignatius of Antioch, pray for us.
May 2010
- Is the White House a Hate Group? “It must be stated clearly and simply. Unfortunately, there is an anti-Semitic president in America," Hagi Ben-Artzi, the brother-in-law of Israeli P.M. Benjamin Netanyahu said on Israeli radio. “The truth must be told,” he said in another interview. “Obama is an anti-Semite.” Someone notify the SPLC, please.
- Chastity Bono, daughter of Sonny and Cher, has asked a judge to formally change her name (to Chaz) and gender, submitting a doctor’s declaration that he performed a gender-change operation. Bono calls the gender change “the best decision I've ever made.” We surely don’t want to know what worse decisions Bono’s made.
- House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a pro-abortion Catholic, initially covered up reports of Congressman Eric Massa’s sexual improprieties with male staff members. This is the issue on which she chooses to follow our bishops’ lead?
April 2010
- Crocodile Crock. When Sir Elton John told Parade magazine, “I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems,” the aging pop star was probably describing his inflated view of himself.
- The Obama Administration has renamed the war in Iraq. Beginning in September, it will no longer be Operation Iraqi Freedom, but Operation New Dawn. Vaguely Reaganesque, reminiscent of Morning in America. A more appropriate name might be: Operation Unending Occupation.
- The Obama Administration wants to change the military’s policy on homosexuality from don’t ask, don’t tell to show and tell. On second thought, maybe the new policy will be known as kiss and tell; or bugger and brag; or do tell, don’t axe.
The final page of each monthly issue of Culture Wars consists of short commentary, entitled Bullets,
written by James G. Bruen, Jr. This web page is a sampling of Bullets from recent issues.
