Clergy Were Denied Access To Boston Marathon Bombing Victims
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Remember the day after the attack when all the first responders that were there were being praised and lauded and people were wondering where the FBI was, where are all the G-Men to get in here? I wondered out loud: Where are all the G-Men? Where are all the priests? Why weren’t there priests? Why wasn’t there clergy at that scene? It’s usually the clergy with the first responders. I have an answer to that now. Check out….Continue
Organized Religion Isn't Dying, Government Is Now Religion
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Because organized religion still exists today. It’s called government. It’s called State Legislature of Louisiana. It is called Congress. It’s called the Senate. Most people treat the Supreme Court as if it is a deity, as if it has god-like powers. Not only does it have them, it ought to discharge them, ought to use them. That is unbelievably wicked and scary, investing that kind of authority in nine unelected men and wo….Continue
Michael Brendan Dougherty: Pope Francis Maintaining The Status Quo
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I keep hearing the news yesterday about there’s 1.2 billion Catholics around the world. That number was larger. That number was larger a decade ago. That number is shrinking. It’s certainly shrinking in the United States. Why? They keep becoming more progressive. They keep adding things that make the Church more, in American political speak you would say liberal. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
We Don't Always Have To Agree - That's What Makes Life Fun
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I take great comfort in knowing, too, that during this week when you and I are reminiscing and recalling what part of the ten years you may recall, the good times and memories, and of course the bad, we should have heated conversations. That’s what we do here on this show. We do not swim with the sharks. We have our own stream that we swim in. That’s why we unplug the matrix cable out of the back of our heads. That’s why w….Continue
Daniel McCarthy On Rand Paul, Tradition, Foreign Policy And Faith
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Daniel McCarthy is the editor of The American Conservative magazine. Is it your take or thought that Rand Paul is part of a movement or is he an enigma and a gadfly like his father who may just be a little more skilled, have some more media skills? Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
Inflation: Gasoline, Groceries And Big Government
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The problem is that our wages have not increased. We talk about this every now and then, how inflation has driven the price of everything up. Coffee is more expensive. Bread is more expensive. Eggs and milk are more expensive. Everything costs more and your wages are not going up. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
The Internet: Making Us More Dumb Since 1972
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - "Sources? We don't need no stinkin' sources on the internet!" That seems to be the motto of many so-called "journalists" online (also called tweeters or bloggers) who simply repeat what the saw or heard on The Blaze or Glenn Beck without actually checking any of their facts. The internet has given us a wealth of information but it has also made us very lazy when it comes to checking that information to….Continue
#PopeOut
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Not since 1415 has a Pope stepped down from his position, well now in 2013, almost 600 years later, that has changed. Pope Benedict XVI has announced he will retire effective February 28 and a successor could be elected by Easter. Usually a Pope serves until his death, obviously this is how history has done this for the last 600 years, but Pope Benedict is citing health reasons for stepping aside and l….Continue
The Purging Of Tradition And Moral Order
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Folks, that’s a reflection of all the things we talk about. Isn’t it just another of the latest examples of our purge of tradition and our purge of true moral order and code? We don’t have a code. You make it up as you go along. If it’s inconvenient or it might cost you a couple of shekels, you just bail. You just abandon it for pure selfish reasons. It’s tragic and sad. Check out today's tra….Continue
Complaining Is A Multi-Billion-Dollar Industry
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - The idea that we consistently complain about all the imperfections that are around us, that are part of the vicissitudes of life is another one of these things that “conservatives” are going to have to come to grips with sooner or later. Just continuing to complain, all that does is make complaining a world-class industry. It’s a multi-billion dollar industry, the complaining industry. Check out toda….Continue
Zmirak: Catholics Need to Stand and Defend; Mike: Gentlemanly Virtue is Missing
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - Faith, family, dress, these are all themes of the revolution that’s going on, I believe, out there in many of your households already, and that is for the American man, the American husband, the husband that is an American, the man that is an American, the civic leaders have to reemerge and reassert. Be a man; don’t be a feminist. You’re not a feminist, you’re a man for God’s sake, act like it. That doesn’t mean ….Continue
Mike Passes on Johnson Vote For Abortion Reasons
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - For those of you that think that we have been shilling and promoting third party and promoting Gary Johnson simply because we have covered him and giving him some respect -- he is running for the office of the presidency. As I said, this gentleman is a major player and should have been a more major player in this. I just think it’s fair that you should have all the information that you can have at your disposal to make your decision.….Continue
Federal Programs Are An Affront To Christian Charity
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Santorum doesn’t trust the Christians around them to govern themselves. Instead, in too many instances, he seems to think that there is some kind of constitutional and Godly purpose in establishing -- you heard him say, “Mitt Romney is for reforming these social programs.” Reform them? The programs themselves are an affront to Christian charity. I’m going to go over this again really quick. It’s not my place here to preach….Continue
Mass Is A Problem When Men Don't Respect Their Attire
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - The lack of seriousness at an event like Mass illustrates and is a great example of the collective lack of seriousness in all the other things we’re dealing with. No one is serious about anything. Is there no function now where there is call for decorum outside of a postcard being sent out that says “proper attire required”? Should you have to send this out as a notice? Check out today's transcript for more...….Continue
Traditions From First Principles MUST Be Defended - Caller Paul
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Paul in Virginia considers himself a "Burkean" (that's Edmund Burke for any beginners out there) and believes that the First Principles laid down by the Catholic Church are the ones that must be defended. And the Federal Government, who comes in with their "better" way of doing things, don't know anything about tradition or the metaphysical principles of the church. I'll let Paul speak for himself in today's transcript...….Continue
Catholics Strike Back Filing 43 Lawsuits Against Obama for 1st Amendment Violations
In long overdue rebuff to Federal powers the Catholic Church seems to be saying that Obama influenced health insurance mandates are a usurpation too far, we can only hope they are so animated against all the rest of the governments meddling in religious affairs Whopper: DeceptiCON Grand Poobah Bill Kristol's revision of history and what it says about the GOP and Romney's future Vicious: This sort of vicious personal attack that passes as a political editorial is what insures t….Continue

Brian in Connecticut Doesn't Want Boundaries on Anything
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio & Transcript - Brian from Connecticut doesn't think there should be boundaries on anything. So why not just disband the State of Connecticut? You don’t need it. It’s some stupid, outdated notion of a state. Who needs that? All we have to do is just worry about getting jobs and what have you. Don’t worry about states. Why even call a state a name? Why do you even have a name? Why does it matter? Why am I calling you B….Continue
The State Should Butt Out of (Gay) Marriage, That's Business for the Clergy
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Marriage is a religious ceremony. It has historically been performed, especially in the Western world, by members of the clergy. If you’re a member of the Catholic faith, it is what is known as a sacrament, it’s a gift from God. There are seven sacraments and marriage is one of them. Therefore, if this is a law of God or a gift from God, how can mortal men alter that which has been given to us by God? Check out today's transc….Continue

Was Secession A Constitutional Right? 1868 Book Concluded It Was. "It was in 1833, for the frst time in the history of the country, that it was solemnly asserted and argued, that the Constitution of the 'United States was not a compact between the States. This new doctrine simultaneously put forth, by Mr. Justice Story in his "Commentaries on the Constitution of the 'United States," and by Mr. Daniel Webster in "the greatest intellectual effort of his life," that is, in his great speech in the Senate of the I6th of February, 1833. In order to show that the Constitution is not a compact between the States, the position is assumed, that it is not a compact at all. If it be a compact, say they, then the States had a right to secede. But it is not a compact; and hence secession is treason and rebellion. The great fundamental questions, then, on which the whole controversy hinges are, first, Is the Constitution a compact? and, secondly, Is it a compact between the States?" - Albert Bledsoe, Was Secession A Constitutional Right (1868)
