Pelosi prays to Saint Joseph

And The Anchoress delivers a righteous smackdown. The Anchoress writes at First Things and is a very devout Catholic.
Pelosi Dozen�t Know from St. Joseph
I�m sorry. Almost nothing that has come from this woman�s mouth has infuriated me like this.
This woman is a profound grotesque who gets virtually everything wrong here, from what feastday it is, to the kinds of Catholic religious sisters supporting her monster�s bastard of a bill.

Note, because it is important in the face of her stupidity, her mendacity, her slander and her willingness to use any-and-all means to achieve her ends, the Catholic sisters who vehemently oppose this health care bill, and are not considered news-worthy by the media, or relevant by this glammed-up guttersnipe, Pelosi.

First off, Nancy, this is not the feastday of �St. Joseph the Worker.� That feast day is May 1, and it is a simple (and optional) memorial. TODAY is the Solemnity of St. Joseph, in his role as the Husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Provider and Guardian for the Child Jesus. A solemnity is not an optional feastday, and Pelosi, who was educated by religious sisters and went to a Catholic college, should know that.

Her ignorance is almost sublime. �Italian Americans� certainly do honor St. Joseph, but they do not �pray� to him. They ask him to pray for them, before the Throne of his most holy and almighty step-son, the Christ.

It is highly doubtful that St. Joseph, who was faced with an unimaginable event, one fraught with challenges, things unknown, social questions, difficulties and sacrifice, would be a happy endorser of a �life-affirming health care� bill that includes the federal-funding of abortions, sterilizations, contraception � undoubtedly, down the road- euthanasia.

In her upside-down world, Pelosi may think that this monstrosity she is laboring so mightily to deliver is �life-affirming;� that is because she is -- like so many of her generation -- unable to imagine life after her own. It takes a �my life right now is more important than any future life� mentality to be this committed to abortion, and to insuring that every means of preventing or ending life, at every stage, is introduced into the public mind as a Godly and enviable thing. It takes a mind that willfully misunderstand the nature of both light and life, as taught by the Church she professes to love, to stand there with a smug, �unicorns and rainbows� demeanor and spout these deceitful platitudes that are not grounded in any sort of reality.

I am disgusted to see this woman -in the same remarks where she sullies a Catholic saint and thumbs her nose at Catholic understanding, to then giddily talk about how she and her cohorts have deployed children �children as young as six, talking about what health care means to them� as propaganda shields.

This video makes me want to vomit. I try not to hate anyone, but this woman is tempting me mightily.
This is only about half of her post. Well worth reading (the 100+ comments too)...
