Good Morning Kossacks,
I am always amazed at the breadth and depth of knowledge on this site. I would appreciate your help in finding out more about BILL DONOHUE.
You know, this Bill Donohue. The one who right now is engaged in an outrage with Jon Stewart which I am sure you have heard about. As of yesterday, he threatend to boycott Jon Stewart:
Catholic League president Bill Donohue told Cenk Ugyur of The Young Turks on Thursday that he didn’t want Daily Show host Jon Stewart to be fired, he just wanted an apology.
“He has apologized for all kinds of things in the past,” Donohue said.
The Catholic League on Thursday launched a boycott against the sponsors of the Daily Show over a segment that featured “vagina mangers.” In the segment, which aired on April 16, Stewart mocked Fox News for criticizing the phrase “war on women.” He noted that the 24 hour news network had been promoting the phrase “war on Christmas” for years.

WHO IS THIS BILL DONOHUE? For example, he is
obsessively against gays and anal sex and, among other things, thinks that those sexually abused by the church are whiners:
(Warning: you will need a shower after listening to this; it is revolting.)
Time we knew. So we can disarm him in his campaign of hate.
The Catholic Bishops seem to be drunk on power, with their latest attack on women in the form of completely squashing American Women religious.
Their antipathy and hatred of anyone who is not exactly like them is breathtaking. They are behaving like the absolute monarchists that they are and are attempting to recreate our country into their image and likeness, joining with the protestant dominionists who now control the Republican Party to establish a theocracy.
They are using the right wing media outlets in an attempt to extend their brainwashing from their flock to the citizens of this country. Bill Donohue is their go to man to take out their trash.
In response to the huge escalation of the culture wars by the rc hierarchy, I would like to gather together some information on one of their more vituperative mouthpieces, Bill Donohue of the catholic league.
WHO IS BILL DONOHUE? It is time we got to know more about him.
However, surprise, surprise, when I go to the Internet, I cannot find any personal information on him. I have long suspected that the rc xch has and continues to scrub the Internet in its defense. (Defense of how much money it actually has, what it does with that money, what politicians and media personalities it owns, how it treats survivors of sexual abuse, what happens to the sexual abusers who are protected in the xch, etc., etc., etc.)
So, I am calling out to all Kossacks, since you guys know a lot, could you help me create a body of information on this man, piecing it together bit by bit if that is what it takes? Nothing like the bleaching power of sunshine:
For example,:
1) he is divorced Well, that is interesting. For someone who so angrily tells other people whom to love and marry, he has obviously failed in this regard. Who is his former wife? Why did she/he get divorced?
2) he taught at La Roche College in McCandless, Pennsylvania. Anyone know anything about that school or know anyone who knew him as a teacher there?
3) In 1980 he received a doctorate in Sociology from New York University Know anything about him from those days? What did he write his doctorate on?
4) he became associated with the conservative Heritage Foundation where he is an adjunct scholar. what does he do there? how much is he paid?
5) he is repeatedly linked with the uber conservative organization OPUS DEI is he a cooperator? is the catholic league an opus dei mouthpiece?
6) Who funds Catholic League? (connection to their website failed a couple of times; maybe my computer.)
OK, those are some of the questions that I am posing and certainly I am interested in all information about him.
WHO IS BILL DONOHUE? Let's collect all our information so we can expose this man. (Where's Anonymous when you need them?)
Thanks for all your help.
