Transgender teacher’s Marla/Mark Kralikowski's suit against Catholic school St. Francis Prep gets green light

I think it would be very distracting for the students to take this “new woman” seriously. 

New York Daily News reports Marla Kralikowski's wrongful termination lawsuit against St. Francis Preparatory School was given the green light by a Queens judge. She claims she was fired for her sexual orientation after 32 years of teaching, but the school claims it was due to her 'insubordination.'    

 

It was a bait and gender-switch.

At a court hearing earlier this week, Judge Duane Hart said he was skeptical of the St. Francis Preparatory School's claim that Marla Kralikowski's was fired for insubordination - and not because she used to be known as Mark.

Let priests have sex: Vatican leaders open to discuss it

There’s something missing from this headline.  If these discussions are open outside the context of allowing persists to marry, I don’t see what else is there to discuss.    

The Post reports this is not your grandmother’s Catholic Church!

Archbishop Pietro Parolin, the Vatican secretary of state, said Catholic leaders are open to discussion about one of the church’s touchiest issues — celibacy for priests – saying that it’s not formal church dogma and therefore could be changed.

“Celibacy is not an institution but look, it is also true that you can discuss [it] because as you say this is not a dogma, a dogma of the church,” Parolin told El Universal, a Venezuelan newspaper.

He said the church needs to “reflect the democratic spirit of the times and adopt of collegial way of governing” the flock.

“It is possible to discuss and reflect on these topics that are not defined faith, and consider some modifications, but always in the service of unity and according to God’s will,” Parolin added..

It is not clear exactly when Rome ordered celibacy for priests.

Sex outside of marriage is still fornication.  Somehow I don’t see Pope Francis giving persists a pass on that.

BREAKING-John Kerry’s Syria ‘Expert’ Fired for Falsely Claiming to Hold a Ph.D.

McCain and Kerry rely on a 26 year old so-called expert that turns out to be a fraud.

PJ Media reports

The Institute for the Study of War has learned and confirmed that, contrary to her representations, Ms. Elizabeth O’Bagy does not in fact have a Ph.D. degree from Georgetown University. ISW has accordingly terminated Ms. O’Bagy’s employment, effective immediately.

O’Bagy is the Syria “expert” Secretary of State John Kerry and Sen. John McCain cited in their pro-rebel Syria talk last week. We were among the sites that questioned O’Bagy’s connection to the Syrian Emergency Task Force, which has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, which is not “mostly secular.”

I guess this is why we’re not seeing O’Bagy on TV this week.

Speaking of the SETF, Walid Shoebat noticed that their web site is going through a bit of a makeover. O’Bagy is still listed there, but a “Research Associate” by the name of Ahmad Soliman is not. References to him have been deep sixed.

I’m sure his public connections to the Muslim Students Association and the Islamic Society of North America — Muslim Brotherhood fronts — have nothing to do with that.
Read Shoebat’s post. It’s interesting. He notices some other digital shredding going on over at SETF.

Exit question: Did Johns Kerry and McCain knowingly participate in Islamist disinformation to goad America into striking Syria, or were they just dupes?
More: A commenter at Politico sums things up nicely:

Another 26 year old “senior analyst.” Miley Cyrus wasn’t available?

New Yorkers reject Lesbian Christine Quinn for NYC Mayor

She used to be a front runner until this blog informed the public that Quinn was not ready for prime time.  Most of the press coverage omitted her sexual orientation that thousands of New Yorkers weren’t aware of.   

That changed when TLT got on the case with each post title.   

Of course I’m joking here.  But, I’m happy nonetheless she’s out of the running.  Although PC won’t permit uttering it publically, I believe New Yorkers rejected her for not want to elect a Lesbian the same way they rejected a hooker happy Eliot Spitzer and sexting pervert Anthony Weiner.

Baltimore City Officials Propose Stricter Curfew For Teens

Teens are running wild all over the country, not just Baltimore!

CBS Baltimore reports kids in Baltimore City may soon need to be home earlier at night. A new proposal is on the table for a stricter curfew in the city.

Meghan McCorkell has the details.

The current curfew for children in the city of Baltimore is midnight on weekends and 11 p.m. on weekdays. Now Councilman Brandon Scott has proposed legislation to make it earlier.

Young people tore into a Seven-11 in upper Fells Point around midnight in February. Now city leaders are trying to stop teens involved in incidents like that.

“We don’t want kids to harm anyone [or] to be harmed themselves,” said Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake.

As the moon rises, Councilman Brandon Scott says he wants to see fewer children out on the streets.

What amazing about this story is Baltimore needs legislation to impose a curfew that should be imposed by parents.

Outclassed by the Master: Putin Didn't Save Obama, He Beat Him

Game, set, and match for Vladimir Putin!

Weekly Standard reports with the Russian proposal on Syrian chemical weapons, the United States is being escorted out of the Middle East.  Maybe Barack Obama and Vladimir Putin really did discussthe idea of putting Syrian chemical weapons under international control last week on the sidelines of the G20 conference. Putin sure doesn’t care that Obama’s taking credit for the proposal, or that the administration is posturing like a Mob enforcer.  “The only reason why we are seeing this proposal,” saidWhite House spokesman Jay Carney, “is because of the U.S. threat of military action.”

Right, Putin is laughing to himself. Whatever. If Obama wants to sell it like a Christmas miracle on Pennsylvania Avenue that’s fine with Putin, because Putin won.

Reset with Russia was originally a strategic priority for the Obama administration because it saw Moscow as the key to getting Iran to come to the negotiating table. Putin, from the White House’s perspective, was destined for the role of junior partner. Now Putin has turned “Reset” upside down. By helping Obama out of a jam with Syria, Putin has made himself the senior partner to whom the White House is now beholden.

Accordingly, when Putin proposes the same sort of deal with Iran, with Russia having established its bona fides as an interlocutor for Syria, Obama is almost certain to jump at it.

The corrupt media may spin this foreign policy fiasco in Obama’s favor.  But, the world sees it for what it is.  Putin mastered the political chessboard while Obama was figuring which pieces were his.
