This is for all the useful idiots in America and the world, the ones that wear the Mao tee shirts and extol the virtues of government run health care and socialism in general.
Is this what you want? Because if so I need to rethink my opinion of you. I always thought that you were just misguided, ignorant of history and blinded by youthful idealism. However, if you truly understand the system you are supporting, if you believe that the ends justify the means, if you think that the individual should sacrifice all for the collective, then YOU ARE EVIL!
There are those in our government that support this abusive, evil system, those like Anita Dunn, who said:
"The third lesson and tip actually comes from two of my favorite political philosophers: Mao Tse-tung and Mother Theresa -- not often coupled with each other, but the two people I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point which is 'you're going to make choices; you're going to challenge; you're going to say why not; you're going to figure out how to do things that have never been done before."
It looks as though her friends in the Communist Chinese government are willing to try many new and wonderful things. How long will it be before those in our government, the ones that lionize evil, decide that the heath bill or some other new law, or more importantly, some new regulation enacted by a faceless bureaucrat, gives them the authority to act as their mentors in China have?
"...Chinese family planning authorities ordered the detentions as part of a campaign to sterilize 10,000 men and women suspected of attempting to violate the country's strict limits on the size of families, The Times of London reported.
Puning said it launched the 20-day campaign April 7 after many couples left their homes for factory jobs and exceeded the limits on family size, the Nanfang newspaper said.
As part of the campaign, parents of those who refuse voluntary sterilization or try to elude authorities have been detained, the newspaper said.
Those being held included the 64-year-old father of Huang Ruifeng, who has three daughters. "Several days ago, a village official called me and asked me or my wife to return for the surgery. Otherwise, they would take away my father," Huang told the Chinese daily."

"HUNDREDS of people in a southern China city, mostly senior citizens, have been confined in dozens of government-owned offices and kept from leaving until their sons or daughters who have violated the nation's family planning policy agreed to accept sterilization.
Those elderly people were taken from home by family planning staff in Puning City of Guangdong Province to be "concentrated for class," a local newspaper quoted a Puning family planning official as saying.
By Sunday, 1,377 people in Puning had been taken to the offices, the Nanfang Rural News reported yesterday.
At one of Puning's townships, nearly 100 people, including babies, were forced to crowd into a 200-square-meter room watched by three unidentified men, the newspaper said.
Without space to lie down, some had to stand or squat. They breathed filthy air in the damp room and had to huddle in the cold because of a shortage of quilts, said the newspaper.
They were taken to the room because their sons or daughters, working out of town, bore too many children."
Shanghai Daily
"The twenty-day campaign, launched April 7, is well along in achieving its goal of 9,559 sterilizations. “A doctor in Daba village said that his team was working flat out, beginning sterilizations every day at 8 am and working straight through until 4 am the following day.” What’s the hurry? Officials in Puning may fail in their bid for promotion to a second tier county “if they cannot meet all quotas,” according to The London Times.
Sterilization quotas? Perhaps this is the reason that Puning Authorities are sterilizing people like 64-year-old Huang Ruifeng, as reported by The Telegraph.
Unfortunately, the Puning sterilization campaign is not an isolated incident. According to the 2009 Report of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China, “Violators of the [one child] policy are routinely punished with fines, and in some cases, subjected to forced sterilization, forced abortion, arbitrary detention, and torture.” The State Department 2009 Country Report on China states, “In the case of families that already had two children, one parent was often pressured to undergo sterilization.”
Not only does the Chinese Communist Party forcibly sterilize women. It also forcibly aborts women who get pregnant without a government-issued “birth permit.” These abortions can occur up to the ninth month of pregnancy, and can be so violent that they sometimes result in the death of the women."

Faced with the daunting prospect of being significantly outspent by his Republican opponent, Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jerry Brown spoke to a labor group Tuesday and urged them to go on the offensive.
"We're going to attack whenever we can, but I'd rather have you attack," Brown said at a gathering of the California delegation of the Laborers' International Union of North America in Sacramento. "I'd rather be the nice guy in this race. We'll leave [the attacks] to ... the Democratic Party and others."

Again, from yesterdays post, the words of Machiavelli:
"A PRINCE must defend his state with either his own subjects or mercenaries, or auxiliaries. Mercenaries are utterly untrustworthy; if their captain be not an able man the prince will probably be ruined, whereas if he be an able man he will be seeking a goal of his own. This has been perpetually exemplified among the cities and states of Italy which have sought to maintain themselves by taking foreigners into their pay."
The politicians have crawled into bed with the unions thinking they could control the situation. They won't and they never have. The unions will get their payback in the form of laws and special deals designed to destroy the free market and usher in the Utopian world that all Communists believe possible.
The unions better start thinking about who they've hired as their mercenaries.
"Households that get their power from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power could see their electric bills go up between 8.8% and 28.4%, depending on where they live and how much energy they use, under a plan unveiled Monday by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
Appearing with labor and environmental leaders, Villaraigosa said the proposed increases would ensure that the DWP meets his goal of securing 20% of its energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar by Dec. 31.
The increased revenue would help pay for new environmental initiatives, including more aggressive conservation programs and a solar initiative designed to create 16,000 jobs.
...Businesses would see increases in the average bill ranging from 20% to 26%. Any increase would become less steep, however, once ratepayers adopt conservation measures or find ways to install solar panels and sell the excess power to the DWP, mayoral aides said.
...One union leader said residents would support the increases once they knew how the money would be spent.
"When they see that there is a clear-cut plan to do what we need to do in this city -- which is to be more green, to create jobs -- then I think that most people . . . are willing to go along with that," said Maria Elena Durazo, executive secretary-treasurer of the L.A. County Federation of Labor."

"Just look at Spain: According to a study released in 2009, for every “green job” created with government money over the last eight years 2.2 regular jobs were lost, and only 1 in 10 of the newly created green jobs became a permanent job."
Epoch Times
LA is going to institute a green plan with the backing of the unions and the environmentalists. It will cause electric bills to rise by as much as 28.4%, driving up the cost to both businesses and individual households. This will cause businesses to close or move and will cause people that would normally spend their money elsewhere, thus supporting other jobs, to spend it on electricity.
Why would the unions support this? It seems counterintuitive in that the affect of this legislation will be most keenly felt by the working people. Isn't that the group that the unions claim to support?
If we take the numbers from Spain, a country that has bought into the green argument, we find that for every green job created 2.2 traditional jobs are lost (Jaun DeMariana). I broke out the abacus and did the math; if LA's green initiatives creates 16,000 green jobs 35,200 traditional jobs will be lost. That is a net loss of 19,200 jobs.
So why would the unions back this? I've got a theory. Most of the green jobs will be created through the government; either directly in administration and enforcement or by mandates to the private sector. These jobs will either be created in union environments, such as the government, or will require adherence to the "prevailing wage", a code word for unions. The 19,000 plus jobs that will be lost in the private sector will be mostly non-union jobs.
This isn't about the environment. This is about union power and control. And "social justice".

n the name of "social justice" this union will destroy the livelihood of thousands. The end justifies the means. No sacrifice is too great to achieve the perfection of man through a Socialist Utopia. And the government, believing it can control this evil gets in bed with the enemy of the people that it claims to serve.
Our politicians don't serve us though, do they? They have used their power to establish their kingdoms. They have become Princes and Kings, raising walls of stone around the government of the people to protect their own power. The unions serve as their mercenary armies, repelling the desires of the people. In the end, this will be their undoing, for as Machiavelli warned:
"A PRINCE must defend his state with either his own subjects or mercenaries, or auxiliaries. Mercenaries are utterly untrustworthy; if their captain be not an able man the prince will probably be ruined, whereas if he be an able man he will be seeking a goal of his own. This has been perpetually exemplified among the cities and states of Italy which have sought to maintain themselves by taking foreigners into their pay."
The unions are working with the Communist/Progressives to create a "New World Order". Our politicians have worked with them because the unions have offered them support through campaign financing, buying their loyalty. The politicians have. like all addicts, become dependent on union money, unable to make independent decisions for fear that their drug of choice will be taken from them. The unions are now using public monies to achieve their ends. The good and the will of the people be damned. The mercenaries have removed the Prince from power and taken hold of the throne for themselves.
We've lost so many battles at the local level that we are about to lose the war at the national level. We need to flank our attackers and hit them in the rear. We need to take back our government, starting at the city, working up to the county and eventually the state.
The Tenth Amendment is the answer:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
We must reestablish our base of operation at the state level. If the states refuse to enforce any laws passed by the Federal Government unless they are expressly authorized in Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution, the efforts of the Communist/Progressives will come to a standstill.
This is our best and maybe only way out short of war. We must crush the evil that we are confronted with, but without resorting to violence. We must exhaust all legal means within our powers. If war begins, all is lost and evil wins.
You have to make a choice. To do nothing is still a choice; a choice for Communism and slavery. If you love freedom get involved and fight. Call, mail, go to public demonstrations. Do something!
Years from now, God willing and we still live in a free country, do you want to tell your kids and grandkids that you sat it out, that you lived through maybe the single greatest turning point in American history and did nothing?
"...From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day."
Henry V

The last few days the media has begun a feeding frenzy around the issue of the Pope and what he knew about the homosexual child abuse scandal in Germany. I pray that our Holy Father is innocent of all charges leveled against him in the court of public opinion. However, guilt or innocence may not matter to those that would see the Church destroyed. So let me put forth a couple of theories:
1) These stories are true, in which case we've got big troubles ahead for the Church. Even if the Pope is involved it still has no effect on the teaching authority of the Church or the guarantees of Christ to protect that authority. It doesn't matter though because most don't understand the structure and foundation of Church authority so something like this would drive millions away.
2) These stories are part of a disinformation campaign orchestrated by interests threatened by the Pope and the Church. This could very easily be an attempt to discredit a very conservative Pope before he is able to make changes that will bring the Church back from the edge of the abyss. There are many, many powerful people and groups inside and outside the Church that are threatened by some of the things the Pope has been doing. Satan cannot directly attack or affect the doctrine and dogma of the Church. He can, however, directly attack the leadership in all areas that are not protected, which is in everything except issues of faith and morals at a dogmatic or doctrinal level. For Satanic groups that believe they have the power to destroy the Church, this is the perfect storm.
If, as I have long suspected, the homosexual child abuse scandal is part of a larger effort to destroy the Church by outside forces, this accusation would be the culmination of their efforts. This is the way Communism/Progressivism works. It is deliberate and patient. Some of it's adherents may lack this virtue but those at the center put plans in place that take decades to come to fruition.
Watch how all of this plays out. This will be used to drive a wedge between the Church and her people. This may be the issue that finally causes a public split of the Church into two distinct camps; those that trust Jesus and his promises and those that fall for the siren song of Satan.
And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.
Matthew 16:18-19
Pray for the Pope and the Church; and for the members of the body that will be torn away by this scandal.
The time of winnowing is at hand.
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
"A renowned exorcist in Rome recently released a book of memoirs in which he declares to know of the existence of Satanic sects in the Vatican where participation reaches all the way to the College of Cardinals. A second demonologist, also residing in Rome, entered the debate this week, clarifying the origins of the information and defending the Vatican's clergy as an "edifying and virtuous" collection of prelates.
In a book of memoirs released in February, the noted Italian exorcist Fr. Gabriele Amorth affirmed that "Yes, also in the Vatican there are members of Satanic sects." When asked if members of the clergy are involved or if this is within the lay community, he responded, "There are priests, monsignors and also cardinals!"
The book, "Father Amorth. Memoirs of an Exorcist. My life fighting against Satan." was written by Marco Tosatti, who compiled it from interviews with the priest.
Fr. Amorth was asked by Tosatti how he knows Vatican clergy are involved. He answered, "I know from those who have been able to relate it to me because they had a way of knowing directly. And it's something 'confessed' most times by the very demon under obedience during the exorcisms."
The famous Italian exorcist was also asked if the Pope was aware of Satanic sects in the Vatican, to which Fr. Amorth replied, "Of course, he was informed. But he does what he can. It's a horrifying thing."...
..."After reading reports of Fr. Amorth's accusations pointing a finger at members of the clergy, including cardinals, Fr. Fortea declared that it is a "duty of justice" to speak out in their defense...
...In addition to the people that seek help for demonic possession, said Fr. Fortea, "innumerable persons come to us who claim to have visions, revelations and messages from Our Lord." Among these, "a certain number offer apocalyptic messages and revelations about the infiltration of Satanism and the Masons within the dome of the Church."
Fr. Fortea added that the only acceptable stance is to suspend judgment of the messages while they are subjected to time-intensive discernment, "sometimes months for each one of the cases."
The other source Fr. Amorth refers to, according to Fr. Fortea, is the demons who are being exorcised. Of this, the Spanish priest wrote that knowing whether or not the demon is telling the truth "is in many cases impossible."
"We can know with great confidence when a demon tells the truth in the subject directly related with the exorcism. That is, the number of demons, their name and similar things. But we cannot be confident in what regards concrete news relating to people."...
...He (Fortea) concluded by emphasizing, "Statements must be proven, especially when they are about such grave accusations that affect the honorability of those who form part of the Head of the Church as far as they help the Supreme Pastor."
Catholic News Agency
Satanism and Freemasonry inside the Church. Possible? In my opinion, yes. But is it true? Based on the direction the Church leadership has been going over the last 50 years or so, and this is just my opinion, I believe it's true. There is really no other way to explain the decisions and actions of so many of the bishops and priests that have denied the existence of Satan, the reality of the Eucharist, the need for confession and the efficacy of the Mass. The Church leadership is supporting Progressive political causes that are, let's face it, Communist in origin. Liberalism (Communism) was strongly condemned by Pope Leo XIII in Libertas:
Moreover, besides this, a doctrine of such character is most hurtful both to individuals and to the State. For, once ascribe to human reason the only authority to decide what is true and what is good, and the real distinction between good and evil is destroyed; honor and dishonor differ not in their nature, but in the opinion and judgment of each one; pleasure is the measure of what is lawful; and, given a code of morality which can have little or no power to restrain or quiet the unruly propensities of man, a way is naturally opened to universal corruption. With reference also to public affairs: authority is severed from the true and natural principle whence it derives all its efficacy for the common good; and the law determining what it is right to do and avoid doing is at the mercy of a majority. Now, this is simply a road leading straight to tyranny. The empire of God over man and civil society once repudiated, it follows that religion, as a public institution, can have no claim to exist, and that everything that belongs to religion will be treated with complete indifference. Furthermore, with ambitious designs on sovereignty, tumult and sedition will be common amongst the people; and when duty and conscience cease to appeal to them, there will be nothing to hold them back but force, which of itself alone is powerless to keep their covetousness in check. Of this we have almost daily evidence in the conflict with socialists and members of other seditious societies, who labor unceasingly to bring about revolution. It is for those, then, who are capable of forming a just estimate of things to decide whether such doctrines promote that true liberty which alone is worthy of man, or rather, pervert and destroy it.
So I believe that Father Amorth is correct in his assessment of the Church leadership. I also agree with Father Fortea that the sources of information used by Father Amorth should be considered suspect until they can be confirmed. However, all this being said, in light of the problems at the USCCB, homosexual child abuse scandals and all of the other evil we see coming from the leaders of the Church it is important to remember something. These are the actions of individuals; mere mortal men. Their actions do not change the Church. Her teachings are not altered and her mission has not changed. Unfortunately, many will not be able to disassociate the actions of the religious from the institution of the Church. They will forget this simple promise from Christ Himself: "And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." (Matthew 16:18)
Hell is hammering the old girl pretty hard right now. But, who do you trust? The corrupt prelates fighting on the side of the Devil or the Son of God? I'm putting my money on the Church.
Catholics need to be aware of the battle that is raging inside our Church between the forces of good and evil. They need to be vigilant in checking statements made by Church leaders, in particular the USCCB to make sure that these statements follow authentic Church teaching. Remember, we are priests (And hast made us to our God a kingdom and priests, and we shall reign on the earth. Rev 5:10) and we have a responsibility to our Church and to our God to push back the forces of evil wherever they may be.
So put on the armor and get ready to join the battle. We are entering a time of total warfare in both the temporal and spiritual world against the forces of darkness. Nobody will get to sit this one out; we will have to choose sides. Our time of comfort and complacency has come to an end.
