We cannot have a Jesuit Catholic as House chaplain who embarrasses us with all that jibberish about the beatitudes. We need a good christian who understands and preaches the prosperity gospel.

The GOP is not sending its best Congress-persons.

Sounds to me like Gravedigger Paulie’s bishop had a word or Three with him.

And, lo, the Lord spoke, “You are full of shit, Paul, and you have crapped on my servant. May my servant raise his finger to you and proclaim what a douche you are.”

He spoke for the less fortunate, the non-rich. It’s a firing offense to some. Actual Christians and decent people of all faiths or none see it a little differently. Welcome to the Resistance, Rev. Conroy, and pass the ammunition.

I’m going to repeat what I said when this 1st broke. In a country with a state religion PROHIBITED by our founding documents, filled with a diverse assortment of faiths, perhaps a Congressional Chaplain has no place.

I’m gonna bet that those Congresspersons that would look for pastoral care have their own ministers or a nearby branch of their faith they can turn to.

I’ll agree. But for the moment I can live with this one.

Paul Ryan and his evil cadets almost makes me wish there was a hell.

Dems should demagogue the ever living shit out of this. There are a ton of Catholics in this country, all over the place, and Republican leadership just showed that they’re (still) openly hostile to Catholics participating in our government.

Wow. For Ryan, who is Catholic, his next confession may be rough. Flagellation as penance is no longer a thing, right?

“Let us prey.”

"Now, remember when I scared the shit out of that fat orange turd?

They’re all like that. Real cowards inside, and now they’re panicking.

Time to take them out!"

“Jonathan Burks, informed him that Ryan was asking for his resignation, he “mentioned dismissively something like ‘maybe it’s time that we have a Chaplain that wasn’t a Catholic.’”
Mr. Burks might as well channel his inner Ian Paisley and prevent Father Conroy from attending any ceremonies or conferring with any house members or their staff.
