Is Mayor Newsom a self-hating Catholic? The Catholic League said this week that the Mayor (and the Board of Supervisors) should be blamed for vandals scrawling the names of the pope and the San Francisco archbishop next to a Nazi symbol on Most Holy Redeemer Catholic Church in the Castro. Why? Because he doesn't do anything to stop such Catholic-offending acts like naked dudes running amok at the Folsom Street Fair, of course.
Here's the statement of Catholic League president Bill Donahue:
"Part of the blame for the latest attack goes to San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom and the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Both Newsom and the Board have shown nothing but contempt for the First Amendment rights of Catholics. When crucifixes are sold as sex toys and Catholic sensibilities are assaulted by naked men in the street at the annual Folsom Street Fair, they say nothing. When gay men dressed as nuns show up at Mass--at the same church--they say nothing."
The statement included Newsom's city e-mail address, and asked Catholics nationwide to contact him.
Call us crazy, but does quasi-local congressman-turned-CIA head nominee Leon Panetta look more than a little like former Conan O'Brien and current Bruce Springsteen drummer Max Weinberg?
