Quotable & Notable |
Issue Date: May 14, 2004 Quotable & Notable Unless you drain the swamp of poverty where the mosquitoes of
terrorism breed, you will not rid the world of terrorism. I have news for them. Its not their church. Its our
church. The church belongs to all of us. Im straight, but Im not narrow. Ive been asked that question so often lately that I have

play cards, having to listen to rednecks discuss American foreign policy and

East ... they all must be crazy or sumthin... it must be
sumthin in the water. I cant believe Jesus used to live
there! National Catholic Reporter, May 14, 2004 |
