1. Martino is a major league jerk.

He is also the one who threatened to deny Joe Biden communion.

3. Everyone laugh at the impotent autocrat

His boy Santorum got the boot.
Scranton went 62-36 for Obama, the "unequalled, prominent proponent of the culture of death."
No-can-haz-communion "pro-abortion" Native Son is a heartbeat from the presidency.
Other Native Son won't vote the way he wants him to.
PA's Republican senator flipped to the party he abhors.

Well done, Bishop Martino!

4. What a transparent moron.
Does he not know that Casey is (unfortunately) anti-choice?

5. I love it that the Catholic bishop is being so public.


It turns people off and (besides the Bishop elites responsibility in allowing Catholic priests to get away with child molestation for eons) it’s the number one reason so many people are leaving the church. Keep on talking Bishop Martino. Give some interviews and organize a protest or 2..
