American CATHOLICS will be SENT to JAIL If this HAPPENS !
"By law, all American hospitals must provide emergency care. If that care includes an emergency abortion, even Catholic hospitals are obliged to perform that operation. However, no religiously affiliated hospital is obliged to provide elective abortions."
She's always touting her willingness to compromise, and this seems to me a simple, logical solution to the problem that should be acceptable to most people on both sides. But, she didn't say that, and you can see the hostility of the men in the video. I'm afraid her obdurance may cost her votes.

Well, it's some sort of justice, I guess. It certainly took long enough.

Recommended Book of the Week: The Magician's Nephew
As those who frequent this blog probably know, I'm a voracious reader, including of children's and YA books. So, to inaugurate my Recommended Book of the Week feature, I've chosen a long-time favorite.
The Magician's Nephew
Digory Kirke and Polly Plummer are perfectly ordinary children in Victorian London. But, when they accidentally walk into the study cum labratory of Digory's Uncle Andrew, they begin a series of adventures that prove to be anything but ordinary.

Time to reverse your ceiling fan
In the summer, your ceiling fan keeps you cool by pushing cooler air downwards with its counterclockwise spin. Now that Fall is here, reverse the blades so that, by spinning clockwise, they send the rising warm air back down where it can do you some good.

Vote Blue
As many of you know, I live in Massachusetts. My 2024 mail-in ballot arrived on October 7. Mail-in ballots arrived and early in-person voting started even earlier in some states.
Every year, there are reports that some percentage of the eligible electorate did not vote. This always upsets me, just as it upsets me to hear people say that they don’t vote – they feel as though they are not important enough – their vote doesn’t count.
Friends, each and every citizen’s vote matters! Voting is the most precious right, privilege and duty of citizenship. Generations of our fellow Americans have fought and died to secure that right for you and me. And around the world, people are still fighting and dying for that right.
So, be it by mail, by in-person early voting at the city clerk’s office, or in person at the polls on Election Day (Nov. 5), cast your ballot as if our democracy depended upon it. For my friends, my fellow Americans, my brothers and sisters, it does! Our democracy, our country itself, is nothing more nor less than her citizens – you and me. And this year, she needs us more than ever. Donald Trump presents a clear and present danger to our democracy, our national security, to our civil rights – to the very foundation of our nation itself, the Constitution of the United States. It is imperative that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz not merely be elected, but be elected in a landslide.
Finally, remember the adage, “Use it or lose it.” Trump has stated as clearly as he possibly can that, if he is elected this year, we will never vote again.
Be a patriot. Vote!
