The Passion of the Loonie

“I spoke to Mel a couple of weeks ago about this. [Best Picture Oscar for Passion of the Christ] And I don‘t think it really matters a whole lot to him. It certainly doesn‘t matter to me. We‘ve already won.”

“Who really cares what Hollywood thinks? All these hacks come out there. Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular. It‘s not a secret, OK? And I‘m not afraid to say it. That‘s why they hate this movie. It‘s about Jesus Christ, and it‘s about truth. It‘s about the messiah.”

“Hollywood likes anal sex. They like to see the public square without nativity scenes. I like families. I like children. They like abortions. I believe in traditional values and restraint. They believe in libertinism. We have nothing in common. But you know what? The culture war has been ongoing for a long time. Their side has lost.”

“You have got secular Jews. You have got embittered ex-Catholics, including a lot of ex-Catholic priests who hate the Catholic Church, wacko Protestants in the same group, and these people are in the margins. Frankly, Michael Moore represents a cult movie. Mel Gibson represents the mainstream of America.”

That was William Donohue, President of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights speaking to Pat Buchanan on the show Scarborough Country.

I guess I’ve missed all the anal sex movies - oh well. Saint Donohue says, he believes in “traditional values and restraint.” Like sado-masochistic gore fests such as Mel’s “Passion” and baseless attacks on Hollywood as being controlled by Jews who “hate Christianity.”

You just have to love those good old AmeriKan values.
