Congrats to Francis Beckwith

On being named Inside the Vatican's top Person of the Year. (h/t) Mirror of Justice blog.

As I note here, Dr. Beckwith is a former instructor at my old (cough) law school, who "reverted" to the Church early last year.

The Axis of RINO

What I Do With Time On My Hands

Attend a political rally for Mitt Romney and shoot a shaky and blurry video of it.

RINO Governor to Endorse RINO Presidential Candidate

More specifically, Ahnuld will be (clap) pahmping-up The Maverick™ .

In a related matter, I didn't watch the GOP debate at the Reagan Library tonight (mostly because I forgot it was on) but there seems to be a consensus in the politically conservative blogosphere, e.g., Powerline and Ed Morrissey, that McCain looked and did pretty bad, while Romney won. Whether or not this will help Romney for next Tuesday is unclear, but I personally hope it does.

I Guess It's Politically Significant

Longtime Congress critter from Los Angeles Maxine Waters, who infamously said she had to march at a "pro-choice" rally because her mother couldn't have an abortion back in the day, has endorsed the presidential candidacy of Hillary Clinton. In addition to being a fairly prominent Democrat, Ms. Waters is black. Given the recent controversies that Hillary has had with racial issues, I guess Waters' endorsement will help her in her battle against Obama for the Democrat presidential nomination.

I May Have To Edit The Banner On The Right

Reports are being made that RINO Rudy Giuliani will be dropping out of the presidential race next Tuesday Wednesday (YAHOO!), and will be endorsing The Maverick™. Not a real surprise to me if this endorsement happens, and it's just one more reason why I think conservative Republicans should refuse to support John McCain.

Blast From The Past

I just discovered that somebody got here by doing a search for the name of the gal I briefly blogged about back in 2002.

Wonder if it was her?

Reminder: We're One Week Away From Ash Wednesday

St. Thomas Aquinas

Today is the Angelic Doctor's feast day (St. Thomas also happens to be my patron saint).



"Good can exist without evil, whereas evil cannot exist without good."

New Year, New Look

Hopefully, more consistent blogging that you might find worth commenting about.

Hey, at least come back for the music (scroll to the bottom).

Abstain From McCain



Lots of reasons to, ranging from amnesty for illegal aliens, McCain-Feingold (McCain, through this friend of the court brief, expressly went after and tried to silence pro-life advocates), and support for continued stem cell research on human embryos.

Man, I Hope It Was For Legitimate Research

Someone got to this blog by doing a Google search for "having sexual intercourse in vegetative state."
