Never mind the gay aspect, isn’t Tobin supposed to be celibate?
AT: Was the man who who’s widely believed to be Washington’s new cardinal, Joseph Tobin of the Newark diocese, bunking with a houseboy?
It looks like it, given the reporting of the indefatigable George Neumayr.
I wanted to ask Tobin about a story I broke in October: that an Italian actor, Francesco Castiglione, was living in his rectory, which had caused murmuring among concerned Catholics in his archdiocese of Newark, New Jersey. Some of those concerned Catholics had called me, suspecting that Castiglione was the real recipient of Tobin’s infamous accidental tweet from last February in which he declared to someone unknown, “Nighty-Night Baby, I love you.” An embarrassed Tobin had explained away the Twitter misfire as a late-night message to one of his sisters.
My slippery walk to the Marriott proved productive. I lurked about the Marriott lobby for a few minutes, then looked up and saw Tobin emerge from the elevator and saunter over to the check-out desk. Here was my chance. I waited for him to complete his business, then introduced myself and asked him about Francesco Castiglione.
Was Castiglione living at the rectory until I reported it? Tobin responded that, yes, Castiglione was living at his rectory “temporarily.” I asked him why. He said that Castiglione was taking “language classes” at Seton Hall. Asked why he would provide temporary housing to a random Seton Hall student, Tobin couldn’t offer an explanation.
Ah, Castiglione is living in Tobin’s rectory. Of course.
I have abs like that. But I hide them under 1/2 inch of fat now days because I got tired of being sexually assaulted by young hot womenz.
Any body buying this shit?
What’s a rectumry?
Uh, I mean – “rectory”.
So, somehow priestly celibacy was established to make these guys Obote reproach, “married” to the church and not bogged down in their own family issues. The net result is a bunch of fags.
They claim Simon Peter as their first pope, misreading Jesus’ “upon this rock I will build my church”.
There are references to Simon Peter’s mother-in-law, indicating he was married.
The current pope is a flaming liberal/socialist and environmental whacko.
I’ll take my well adjusted married Southern Baptist pastor any day over some creep who vows celebecy while being a homosexual pervert.
There once was a Cardinal from D.C.
Who played with an actors PP,
They rolled on the ground,
Without making a sound,
Just to fool all of you and me.
I have read of this, and other icky and inexplicable stuff.
Right now, the church would do well to heed my Irish Catholic grandmother’s admonition: Things must not only BE right, they must LOOK right. Sorry for anyone not getting the promotion he thought he was entitled to but right now we need shepherds above reproach.

Best blog by a good priest horrified by it all:

Do not recall specifics, cannot site source. But a few years ago someone said Catholic church would only have, I dunno, 3 more Popes? Anyway, pretty much looks like Pope Benedict was last Pope. Really worried about new guy. New guy is a Jesuit, came from Socialist country, supports communism, protects homo priests, openly disdains America and free market competitive capitalism. Dat boy needs LOTS of prayers.
F4U – I still prefer the old school limericks like this one:
There once were three ladies from Birmingham
and this is the story concerning ’em
They lifted the frock
And tickled the cock
Of the Bishop who wuz a confirming ’em.
Now the Bishop was nobody’s fool,
He’d been to a fine public school
He lowered his britches
And beggered those bitches
With his six-inch Episcopal tool.
The last of the three named Sue
remarked as the Bishop withdrew,
The Vicar wuz quicker
and thicker and slicker
and three inches longer than you!
Da Dump!
It is said that he makes great peckeroni pizza.
At least the Italian guy is an adult and not a 14 year old. 😛

Excellent limerick…
