CLEVER CATHOLICS … ST. NANCY PELOSI
There was a Saturday afternoon, in Washington , D.C. , when an
aide to Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited the Bishop of the
Catholic cathedral in D.C.
He told the Cardinal that Nancy Pelosi would be attending the next
day's Mass, and he asked if the Cardinal would kindly point out
Pelosi to the congregation and say a few words that would include
calling Pelosi a saint.
The Cardinal replied, "No. I don't really like the woman, and there
are issues of conflict with the Catholic Church over certain of
Pelosi's views." Pelosi's aide then said, "Look, I'll write a check
here and now for a donation of $100,000 to your church if you'll
just tell the congregation you see Pelosi as a saint."
The Cardinal thought about it and said, "Well, the church can use
the money, so I'll work your request into tomorrow's sermon."
As Pelosi's aide promised, House Speaker Pelosi appeared for the
Sunday worship and seated herself prominently at the forward left
side of the center aisle. As promised, at the start of his sermon,
the Cardinal pointed out that Speaker Pelosi was present. The
Cardinal went on to explain to the congregation, "While Speaker
Pelosi's presence is probably an honor to some, the woman is not
numbered among my personal favorite personages. Some of her most
egregious views are contrary to tenets of the Church, and she tends
to flip- flop on many other issues. Nancy Pelosi is a petty, self
-absorbed hypocrite, a thumb sucker, and a nit-wit. Nancy Pelosi is
also a serial liar, a cheat, and a thief. I must say, Nancy Pelosi
is the worst example of a Catholic I have ever personally
witnessed. She married for money and is using her wealth to lie to
the American people. She also has a reputation for shirking her
Representative obligations both in Washington , and in California
. The woman is simply not to be trusted."
The Cardinal concluded, "But, when compared with President Obama,
House Speaker Pelosi is a saint."
Gosh, I love being around Catholics !
