Archdiocese of Boston: No statement on Immigration, but gay marriage....
well, that's Important!

I had a chat with the head-office of the Boston McVatican franchise today.

Apparently, the Archdiocese of Boston has not yet issued a statement on immigration reform.

I asked the lady in the communications department, "So, in other words, people could be deported, mommies and daddies sent away, families torn apart... after all those things that Jesus said about taking care of the poor, you haven't issued a statement about it yet? But I'll bet a hundred bucks you'll be at The State House tomorrow talking about gay marriage and acting like you're 'pro-family.'"

Massachusetts DUers, this is a call to action:

Tomorrow, the Massachusetts Judiciary Committee will be hearing debate on gay marriage.

Please come if you can.

Bring signs if you'd like. Come testify before the committee if you want to.


In 2004, they came for the gays.

Now, it's 2006 and they're coming for the immigrants.

Some of those who cheered the placement of Republicans as "pro-family" are now looking at having their own families torn-apart by those they elected to "preserve marriage."

We can go there and try and win their hearts and minds, or we can rub their noses in how badly they've been suckered by the so called "family values" Republicans.

Take the high road, or take the low road-- But please come!

Please show-up and make yourself heard tomorrow, 9 AM or as early as possible, at The Mass. State House Room A1.

2. I saw that ugly bastard's mug on television this morning...
I think he was saying, "Send us more little Mexican boys."
