The Catholic League is trying to get blogs banned from the convention.

DEMOCRATS MUST NIX OFFENSIVE BLOGGERS

Over 120 blogs have been credentialed as members of the media for the Democratic National Convention; those who have received credentials are allowed to cover the Convention at the Pepsi Center. While most of them offer legitimate commentary, some do not.

Catholic League president Bill Donohue is protesting two of the blogs:

“The list of credentialed blogs include radical sites like The Daily Kos. Worse are blogs that feature anti-Catholic and obscene material. The two most offensive are Bitch Ph.D. and Towleroad.

“On the home page of Bitch Ph.D. there is a picture of two children: one of them is shown flashing his middle finger. Today’s lead post, which was written August 17, is called ‘Jesus Christ.’ It begins with, ‘I’m a really crappy Catholic who hasn’t been to mass in ages because most parishes around here ‘will’ insist on being aggressively anti-abortion….’ The writer then objects to some children’s toys on the grounds that they are more offensive than desecrating the Eucharist. The toys are actually balloons that have been made to depict Jesus in various poses, including a crucified Christ; one of these images shows Jesus with a penis. Several who commented on this image made patently obscene comments.

“Towleroad describes itself as ‘A Site with Homosexual Tendencies.’ Accordingly, it shows men in jock straps and underwear. It also has a post on Pope Benedict XVI that takes him to task for wearing a cape with ermine. Some of those who commented on this described the pope in a vile and profane way.

“Both of these blogs should be cut immediately from the list of credentialed sites. Neither functions as a responsible media outlet and both offend Catholics, as well as others. To allow them access to the Democratic National Convention sends a message to Catholics they will not forget. We look for Leah Daughtry, CEO of the Convention, to nix them ASAP.”

They just better hop to it ASAP. My question is "only 2?":evilgrin:

That I wish Donahoe parents had practiced birth control. He is a disgrace.

Awesome!! :woohoo:

ANY convention, much less the Democratic Convention!!!????!!!!??

Didn't you get the memo?

The Catholic League seems to exist solely for the purpose of creating and enforcing a Roman Catholic theocracy that makes the Middle Ages look enlightened and the Spanish Inquisition look like a children's Christmas pagent. :eyes:

Buncha Torquemada wannabes.

He is hyper-sensitive because that is what he is paid to be. He has quite a bit of hard right, rich Catholic money behind him. The Catholic League is beyond a joke.

About how Donahue was above the Pope and such.

Except, you know. Ew.

they might have some merit. Nope...bunch of medieval bitches who need to take up the Southern Baptist religion.

I wonder if they did the same bitch fest regarding letting the Talibornagians (who don't see Catholics as Christians at all) into the Pub convention if they'd have any effect.
