This needs no comment from me. Compare the sterling work done by Vladimir Romanovich on patriarchia.ru with the incompetent rubbish (or downright stonewalling) handed out by the brazen PR flack Ginny Nieuwsma & Co on oca.org… one of these things is NOT like the other!

A Cabinet member sent me a link and wrote:
Christ is risen!
If you take blood pressure medicine, take it before you read this drivel… the converts will eat this crap up.
Indeed, Bob Taft was his snarky self… but he did us a service, kids. He named many of the POS Quislings in Orthodoxy. That’s a GOOD thing. Taft didn’t intend to do that, but that’s what he did do. He named many of the worst arse-kissers in the Orthodox camp. He exposed many of the Orthodox who’re kissing the naked bum of the Pope of Rome. That’s no small beer, and Bob Taft forgot that we’d read his unhinged crapola. Here are the worst plug-uglies in the Hall of Shame:
The rot has set in equally in the OCA and in the ROCOR… the worst and saddest one is Vassa Larina… she sold out Christ’s Church for filthy lucre and academic position. Bob Taft “seduced” her with papist money and promises of academic preferment… and she fell for it. Had this been before 2007, George Larin would’ve disowned his daughter for selling out to the Pope of Rome and his Jesuit Uniate minions.
We have major housecleaning to do…

Sources tell me that Fr Sergius Bowyer said that St T’s might have liturgy outside at the bell tower like the old days at the Pilgrimage. Perspirin’ minds wanna know… is he trying to get back the Hunkies who’ve stopped coming? Y’ know… selling only cheap-ass carnival food at the event hasn’t helped attendance… people don’t want deep-fried pickles or Italian sausages… they want kielbasa, galoompkies, and pierogies (American Slavonian misspelling intentional… spiedies from Sharkey’s would be welcome, too)! Hey, this IS the Valley, after all…
In related news, the buzz has it that now ex-Deacon Michael Pasonick is out of the slam (he got nicked for bribery), he wants to be reinstated as a deacon. Talk has it that beaucoup bucks are involved… not only does he want the deposition from the diaconate lifted, he wants to be ordained to the priesthood, too! Hmm… is this brazen ex-con gonna serve at the Memorial Day shindig? Things are certainly not boring in the slo-mo disintegration of the OCA…

______________________________
Today, loud rightwing extremists are trying to take over our Church in the American diaspora and link it with godless moneygrubbing “conservative” elements in the the American political scene. Well, they’re NOT in the mainstream of the Church. HH is a LEFTIE. Let me repeat that… politically, HH, like most of the clergy in the Rodina is a Leftie. He’s friends with the Castro brothers… he’s friends with China… he’s supports the Palestinians and Socialist Cuba. That is, he doesn’t support the Rightie lunacy spouted by Victor Potapov, James Paffhausen, Alexander Webster, Terrence Mattingly, Rod Dreher, and Michael Dahulich.
If you’re an Orthodox Christian, you’ll follow HH… as for the people I named, well, they’re following an evil ideology. Oppose them… it does affect the destiny of your immortal soul. Remember this… Our Lord Christ didn’t use the police power of the state to coerce obedience… neither should we.
