Brownback had left the Senate. Perhaps Mr. Danna is confusing Sen. Brownback with Sen.

While I wish he spoke more forcefully and at times less hesitantly on capital punishment, Brownback is as close to a consistent life ethic politician as we can find on the national stage, and his departure from the Senate is regrettable.Thomas Tobias D'Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08555513826597288736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343546954225003627.post-12976677403103038522009-01-24T19:25:00.000-06:002009-01-24T19:25:00.000-06:00Excellent post.

I admire the way you realize that being a faithful Catholic doesn't entail complete conformity on all issues. <BR/><BR/>The mindset that all must conform in lockstep fashion on all issues was a major factor in my leaving the Church some years ago, it was after I realized that "Catholic" implies a broad acceptance of various beliefs & persuasions that I came back. As long as I follow Rome I can't be kicked out. Sometimes that is exactly what I have to tell those who wish otherwise. <BR/><BR/>And to tell the truth, that is actually kind of enjoyable!<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work, yours is a great blog.Subvethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13523683273450353313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343546954225003627.post-9370052726133703042009-01-24T19:05:00.000-06:002009-01-24T19:05:00.000-06:00Thanks for the thorough fisking.

Well, yes I do, but this isn't my blog and I'm not prone to using profanity at someone else's place.Pro Ecclesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814831624547392519noreply@blogger.com
