The Vatican released a very odd document yesterday which serves as The Ten Commandments For Driving. But as I glanced through them, I noticed nothing about driving while intoxicated.
Uh, oh. I expect to see the following very shortly:
(AP) Dallas - Mother's Against Drunk Driving (MADD) issued a press release today denouncing the Vatican's omission of the sin of drunk driving from its new Ten Commandments For Driving. "We are outraged," said MADD president Glynn Birch. "We always suspected those Catholics hit the bottle too much, but how can you omit DWI from that list?" There was some speculation that MADD might place pressure on the Church to remove Pope Benedict XVI from his papal position. "Look, we've been bullying prosecutors for years, and it won't be the first time that we've cost someone their job for not doing exactly what we tell them to do." Birch added. "Even though the Vatican almost has as much money and power as MADD, we have God on our side. They will listen or face our wrath which, as we have demonstrated, can be merciless. And while we're at it, we'll probably have them start substituting grape juice for communion. That's bugged us for quite a while."
Edit: And look what happened on the same day as the Commandments were released.

I'm a member of DAMM: Drunks Against MADD Mothers.
If he would drive a UAW assembled car from James Wood, he wouldn't need bulletproof glass.
98% of the members of Madd are Republicans and almost 99% of those have/ had and do drive under the influence.

if madd is really worried about dwi then why dont they set up a ride system to give people whho hve had a little to much a ride home instead of grypin about it solve the problem
It seems odd the Vatican issued this, but think about how many people you know turn into a very different person behind the wheel.
I have an Aggie friend who refuses to put any A&M stickers on his car because his road manners would reflect poorly on TAMU. Apparently improving his attitude while driving is not an option.
Barry I hate to burst your big brain thought, but you didn't read the whole bit....
This part covers the driving while intoxicated part, they just have it fall under Thou Shalt Not Kill:
35. There are also cases of driving when physically or mentally incapacitated, under the influence of alcohol and other stimulants or drugs, or in a state of exhaustion or somnolence. Danger also derives from citycars, which are driven by youngsters and adults who do not have driving licences, and the reckless use of motorbikes and motorcycles.
36. Taking all this into account, public authorities lay down a series of criminal laws in order to safeguard rights and prevent damage caused by accidents. Unfortunately, in practice, the obligatory nature of such regulations goes unnoticed. All too easily, drivers are barely aware or even ignorant of this fact, precisely because these regulations come within the scope of criminal law, thus relating to events that are deemed extraordinary rather than ordinary. This more easily puts drivers in a position of acting against the law, in the hope of not being apprehended by the authorities responsible for enforcement.
37. It is obvious in this respect that education in favour of a culture of life, in defence of the “thou shalt not kill” commandment, is increasingly necessary.....
12:39, The 2% liberal weenies that belong to MADD need to go start their own club. They could have an open bar and have Patrick and Ted Kennedy as honorary members.
No that 2% need to be like Repubs who sing the loudest in church then hold everyone else to standards they do not live by as they sin behind closed doors with little children and the neighbors wife.
Compassion is not what they are known for but they claim to be. I see you did not deny the 98% part.
Case Closed.
Can you link to the 98% that are Republicans? Case reopened.
A black man as president of our "Good ole boy" club? I don't think so.
In a few days I won't have to drive under the influence anymore. Liquor stores just around the corner.
HA, In your face Decatur!!! (We'll be waiting at the city limits for you easterners. B'port needs the money.)
Personal recognizance, my ass. That stinks and leaves me with an even lower opinion of our law enforcement system than I already had. I,m launching FADPEE.(Fathers Against Drunk Priests Eating Enchiladas)
