Strike that
In a Senate resolution welcoming the Pope to the United States has been cleansed of some "objectionable" languague.
Whereas Pope Benedict XVI has spoken out for the weak and vulnerable, witnessing to the value of each and every human life...
So Sen. Boxer has stood up to make sure such language did not make it through. As Paul noted the opposition to this language is in reference to the Church's opposition to abortion. I find this odd though since if she believes children in the womb are not human life than the Pope speaking out to protect human life should not be objectionable to her. It is funny that someone who believes sucking the brains out of children just before being born is not objectionable, but witnessing in favor of protecting the weak and the vulnerable is.

Posted by Mr Flapatap email at April 17, 2008 6:11 PMThere are many words I could use to describe Boxer...and not a one of them are appropriate coming out of a priest's mouth (or from his fingers).
One can only hope that her greeting party when she dies is the millions of unborn she made sure died.
