KNOW NOTHINGS

Kammi is Joe's veep selection.  Good luck putting a "Catholic" spin on that.

Someone might want to remind Joe Biden, who’s just picked progressive California senator Kamala Harris as his running mate, that his vice-president-to-be believes Catholics are unfit to serve in our nation’s courts.

In late 2018, while evaluating the nomination of Brian Buescher to serve as a district judge in Nebraska, Harris posed a series of questions insinuating that his involvement in the Knights of Columbus — a charitable Catholic fraternal organization — disqualified him from serving on the bench.

Just go Episcopalian, Joe.  It would be a lot easier for you.

It'll cause some anxiety for chancery office flacks and the coterie of sell-outs at Commonweal and The National Catholic Reporter.

Harris is anti-Catholic, pro-abortion, and favors restricting First and Second Amendment rights.

DP said...

Yep.

But in Biden's defense, he certainly had no memory of that.

And even if he did, he himself wants nuns to pay for birth control.

They'll get along great--and the Dem ticket's Catholic vote floor will be no lower than 48 percent.

And a sad thing that is, DP -- although surveys show maybe that many Catholics don't believe Christ is really present in the sacraments of the Mass, so not very surprising they can support anti-Catholics politically.

I hear you, Katherine.

These days, "Catholic" is no more a predictor of behavior--be it personal rectitude, beliefs, voting, charity, etc.--than the term "customer."
