She is also a fan of the band Dropkick Murphy —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.209.25.116 (talk) 02:52, 24 January 2008 (UTC) apparently the cranks on conservapedia are annoyed at this little tidbit, though it is kinda cute —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122589423KM (talkcontribs) 11:38, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Laetare Medal

[edit]

The fact that the invite was "controversial" is substantiated by a citation to a CBS News article (it boggles my mind that anybody could have actually contested this in good faith, in light of the protests, statements from bishops across the country, and media coverage on all major outlets), and the statement that Obama has "strong pro-choice policies" is supported by a citation to Obama's own web site, which touts his "strong pro-choice record." Consequently, I've reverted the summary deletion of this properly sourced material by User:TheCondor24.-PassionoftheDamon (talk) 23:24, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Canon 915

[edit]

In the "Personal Life" section, I've added language (with supporting references) that divorce and remarriage is a sin under Catholic doctrine. This seems highly pertinent to me because much of Glendon's notability stems from her staunch devotion to Catholic principles. If consensus is to the contrary, please feel free to revert it. --Shadow (talk) 21:30, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that's relevant. The first marriage was civil. She married her second husband in a Catholic church. Presumably if the Catholic Church was OK with marrying them there's no need to speculate here on whether or not it's sinful. Flyte35 (talk) 01:37, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality on lede

[edit]

There has been IP reversion of the introduction, removing the verbiage that the subject is actively working against abortion rights. The IP has stated it is not a right but a 1973 U.S. Supreme Court case, Roe v. Wade, affirmed that access to safe and legal abortion is a constitutional right. I will step back, to avoid an edit war but leave this as a placeholder to discuss. Ifnord (talk) 18:59, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
