We're All Bad Catholics Now (...I Wish)

If you've never read Bad Catholic, you should; if you're an occasional reader (like me), you should start checking in more often (as I have this past week.) Of all the enjoyable stuff I've seen there, I don't think anything has given me the pleasure of a simple picture he posted three days ago. After pointing out that, "Your plan backfired, Barry: Instead of painting the Church as ridiculously oppressive, you managed to usher America into an incredible zeitgest, in which NPR dislikes you and Mike Huckabee can declare “We are all Catholic now,” without being damned to hell thrice over.", he offers this picture:

with the legend, "When any creature that normally takes half a century to form a complete statement starts a united effort to destroy your plans, think twice about your own brilliance."

Good advice to Saruman, good advice to all the proponents of this horrible HHS mandate.

How horrible is it? When this came down, I--the queen of mean-spirited pettiness--could not direct even a millisecond of "told you so" schadenfreude toward the bishops who had supported the passage of Obamacare.


So, inspired by the above and some of Bad Catholic's other recent pics, here's my less-good picture contribution:

St. Thomas More
