    Please join: "Catholics Against Bill Donohue"

    Ok...I've had enough. I'm starting an organization called 'Catholics Against Bill Donohue". We're going to lobby the Vatican to get him excommunicated for routinely committing at least 4 of the 7 deadly sins. He doesn't deserve to get into heaven, even if there isn't one. We'll make him the 'bad PR' nightmare of the Pope. We'll accuse him of sodomizing young boys (not too far a stretch given his apparent hatred of women) and other such mortal sins. This guy is the modern Inquisition....a screaming meemie so non-spiritual it's a shock no one in the clergy stands up and denounces this guy, God save us from Bill Donohue.
