>>An email from Ireland to all of their brethren in the States. A point to ponder despite your political affiliation:

We, in Ireland, can't figure out why you people are even bothering to hold an election in the United States.

On one side, you had a pants wearing female lawyer, married to another lawyer who can't seem to keep his pants on, who just lost a long and heated primary against a lawyer, who goes to the wrong church, who is married to yet another lawyer, who doesn't even like the country her husband wants to run!

Now...On the other side, you have a nice old war hero whose name starts with the appropriate 'Mc' terminology, married to a good looking younger woman who owns a beer distributorship!

What in God's name are ya lads thinking over in the colonies!!!!!

Vatican decree lifts excommunication of SSPX bishops

Vatican, Jan. 24, 2009 (CWNews.com) - Pope Benedict XVI (bio - news) has lifted the excommunications of the bishops who lead the traditionalist Society of St. Pius X (SSPX).

In a decree dated January 21, and released to the public on January 24, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re (bio - news), the prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, announces that the excommunications imposed on July 1, 1988-- after the four bishops were ordained by the late Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in defiance of Vatican orders-- are no longer in effect.
