A Catholic Drudge Report

I have discovered a new blog that looks very appealing and I'm linking to it. Here's the description from NY Mom:

The inspiration of the energetic and savvy Fighting Irish Thomas, a Notre Dame alumnus, educator, sports instructor and a freelance writer, Cathlete.net is a welcome alternative to other conservative online news magazines.This attractive site is a collection of political, religious, pro-life and general interest news items in an easily accessed format. An exciting feature is the addition of a wide range of sports news, in keeping with Thomas' own abiding interest in athletic pursuits. Also, links to a variety of useful Catholic websites are conveniently located on either side of the page, including several notices for pregnancy counseling and assistance.

The Notre Dame connection is subtly felt throughout, lending a charming Irish Catholic air and a note of nostalgia to the endeavor and particularly warmed the Irish corner of my heart. I may be prejudiced, but it is heartening to see American Irish Catholics re-entering the conservative fray. Their keen wit, fiercely held convictions, and brave pugilistic spirit are sorely needed on the battlefield of ideas if we are to take back and hold the moral highground, a battle which will only succeed if we create our own news media and centers of influence.
