HEADLINE: Voices of Catholic Political Conscience, Past and Present by Brother Andre Marie

• We are on Buzzards Bay not actually Martha’s Vineyard.
• Pools and bathtubs that is the only place Maggie will swim.
• To put it bluntly, the thirty-two years intervening from Buchanan’s speech and the twenty-eight since the publication of Bork’s book have witnessed the acceptance by the “conservative” mainstream of sodomy, abortion, and other forms of deep moral depravity. (I fear that the Republicans were always OK with usury, itself morally depraved and a font of other forms of moral turpitude.) Witness the talks from the just concluded Republican National Convention, where Lara Trump and others chose to include “gay or straight” into the categories of human diversity cast into irrelevance by the transcendent humanity of Americans that the Party of Trump embraces. We even heard a trite pious platitude of depravity, “It’s all love” — a variation on the theme of “Love is love” — echoing in the hallowed halls of Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum, uttered by a porn star, no less.
• Peter Thiel who is a homosexual, PayPal which is one of his many corporate entities, they will deplatform you if you are anti-homosexual. 
• This is the new Republican party.
• The moral issues and natural law have been removed.
• Edward Feser on X posts a photo of a baby in utero with the comment “The Real Forgotten Man”.
• We don’t endorse parties or candidates b/c we have the 501c(3) status but we can mention when things or platforms or stances are wrong.
• JD Vance was asked about the abortion pill.
• Aside from the moral question of lying, it is scandalize to say the abortion drug is okay.
• If he said that he is against the current LA law that has now categorized it a Class A controlled substance.
• They had 15 minutes of Make Israel Great Again and I cut it off during the convention.
• This is a difficult needle to thread here.
• Politics and Abortion
• The lesser of two evils and all.
• Someone must step up to the table and say no you are wrong and here is why.
• Social Moral teachings and statements in our platform – why can’t we have that?
• What is so darned mystifying about these questions?
• Let’s call a spade a spade and this is moral depravity.
• Amber Rose – why do we need to platform a porn star?
• When you select the people who speak at something like this, you are sending a signal.
• The Big Tent welcomes people who think the moral law is optional. 
• We need to stop and say…NO we are not okay with that.
• Let’s push hard against this.
• We have a pro-abortion party in the Democrats and now we have a pro-choice party.
• That is the two choices in my humble opinion. 
• States Issues – 
• Political King Makers – that is a whole different level of donations.
• The claim is that JD Vance is a creature who is a product of Theil and others.
• The Lesser of Two Evils – Catholics should excise this from their language.
• We can never do evil so that a good can come from it.
• You aren’t supposed to pick evil ever.
• The principle of double effect – a choice b/w two things.
• The good effect to save the mothers life. 
• The bad effect is that the child when removed from the tubes will die.
• If you do nothing the child and mother will die.
• There is a whole other role – the moral calculous that is not the lesser of two evils, it should be called The Principle of Double Effect!

HEADLINE: The Lesser of Two Evils by Brother Andre Marie 

Take The Win phrase – people say this and I don’t believe this.

• Take the Win is often used to say something happened that isn’t perfect but we can work with it but that labels and attitude that we can actually work with it.
• When this is applied to the political realm means….SHUT UP.
• It is an insult to those people that refused to call this a win decades ago to get those things on the Republican platform.
• Trump is a moral utilitarianism. 
• Some Practical Considerations:
• 1. Oppose abortion
• 2. Protect the rights of parents
• 3. Protect the patria
• 4. Cease the prosecution of unjust wars
• 5. Uphold the rule of law
• The cat is simultaneous dead and alive at the same time.
• It doesn’t say which one is an act.
• If you say that to most academics they would say….
