The hearing on First Amendment challenges discussed last post for Monday is continued to Friday June 20th, at 1:45 p.m. in Dept. 308 on Commonwealth, as the Miani cases jury trial will be in session most of May and early June.

Meanwhile, did anyone notice the FLDS story that began to fill the media a week before the Pope arrived disappeared a week after he left? What news there is now about the arrests on the fundamentalist Mormon sect ranch is embarrassing admissions from law enforcement that they made mistakes.

Or am I hopelessly paranoid seeing plots and schemes everywhere, now that I've watched how the Catholic Church conducts its legal defense.
Why Doesn't 'Abstinence Only' Education Work? The Catholics Do It With Priests...

They should have looked at how great abstinence only worke in the Catholic Church with its priests.
ANOTHER THOUGHT: A lot of Barrack Obama supporters say if you condemn the candidate for his pastor Jeremiah Wright’s actions, you have to condemn Catholics for not leaving their church because of pedophile priests.
Well, Obama has disconnected himself from Jeremiah Wright, so —
FINALLY
Does anyone else see the similarities in the way the political candidates manipulate the press and the way Roman Catholic hierarchy do? To keep our minds on trivial small things, so we don't see the huge ones.
Almost as if they all have the same PR consultant.
Always steering you in another direction so you don’t look at the real truth.
