The Conference of Catholic Bishops has finally awakened and like Lazarus sprung to life at the call of righteousness. They have dug in their heels and are ready to defy Obama on his abortion plan: Better late than never.
Three years ago the nation’s Catholic bishops followed their tired old “we can’t get involved in politics” 501 (C3) inspired rule of not saying anything political.
They feared the loss of the Church’s tax exemption- as if ANY administration even a Democrat administration would have the nerve to take it away.
The Catholic bishops watched Obama and Democrats not only campaign, but solicit and accept money inside Black Baptist Churches and said nothing.
They watched more than half of their folk vote for a man they knew in their hearts would someday turn his venomous hatred for Christianity on the Catholic Church.
Two years ago the nation’s Catholic Bishops stood by and watched as demented nuns and phony “Catholic” philosophers told us Obamacare was actually a pro-life bill. They refused to excommunicate lying Catholic politicians who publicly “cooperated” with the evil of abortion.
Now, finally the Bishops have come up fighting and identified Obamacare as a serious threat to Catholic religious freedoms.
The bishops are asking Catholics to help put an end to the section of Obamacare which will require all employers even those whose consciences will not allow it, to provide abortion and contraception coverage in their employee health insurance plans.
They are demanding Obama back down. They are going “all in” against Obama and starting to rally Catholics for the fight of our lives.
Since Obama can’t or won’t back down this is the irresistible force versus the Democrats’ “movable” object – they will fold. If even a small number of Catholics respond….

77.7 million Catholics in the US.
Barky just lost the election.
Most unfortunately will vote their union or social group before considering their Faith. Hussein has concluded Catholics are Pussies.
They are only riled up now that the Democrats chose the abortion lobby over them and screwed them over.
Maybe. I will certainly not vote for Zero (nor any of my Catholic friends). BUT ... none of us voted for Hussein the first time, so BFD.
IF the Kommunist Kenyan Klown has indeed lost (rather than tied) the "Catholic Vote", the real question is "who has won?" A Republican Party "win" in November is not necessarily a "win" for America.
Hitler first made a law (the Nuremburg Law) that made Jews a less-protected class of human being than others. Just like Roe v Wade.
Then in the name of benefitting the nation as a whole he forced the workers at the concentration camps to exterminate those Jews, which served a double purpose: it killed the Jews and it castrated every able-hearted person who would have opposed such heinous crimes because they were complicit in it.
Once the Enabling Act of 1933 was passed the only resistance to Hitler’s agenda that could exist was CRIMINAL RESISTANCE. Assassinating Hitler was the only way out, because the laws had been changed to make freedom and the defense of innocent human life illegal.
Once you click on the link, the trojan takes over the computer and you have no effective way to stop the damage, short of killing the computer and starting over from scratch.
The Enabling Act of 1933 was the click that unleashed Adolf Hitler’s massive agenda. The election of 2008 was the click that unleashed Soros’ communist-Islamist agenda. What we’re seeing now is the tip of the iceberg; under the radar Obama has been taking over EVERYTHING, and disabling all the legal means of holding him and his communist-Islamist allies accountable to the rule of law. Fast and Furious is one example; a bunch more are about to become public within the next month.
What legal means will stop Obama from forcing abortions on Catholic nurses and doctors who believe (rightly so) that abortion is murder? The Supreme Court? They are badly, badly compromised. Chief Justice John Roberts publicly affirmed that he trusted the other justices to know when to recuse themselves - right after Kagan and Sotomayor refused a specific request to recuse themselves from conference on a case where their very jobs were at issue. Somebody tell me what could possibly be a greater conflict of interest than that? If Roberts was fine with that, then he is fine with ANY unethical or lawless behavior on the part of the justices or whoever owns the justices.
And we all know who owns Kagan and Sotomayor. The same person who owns Obama - the same one who said straight-out that he has bought and paid for the democratic party and it is thus his: George Soros, the man who seriously believes he is God and wants America to lose the “war on terror” so America and capitalism (the two evils in the world, according to Soros) can be defeated.
So Soros owns the United States Supreme Court. Obama owns law enforcement. Congress is irrelevant. What are the legal means at our disposal right now? Unless the voters can flush this turd down the toilet all we will have left is Valkyrie. Think long and hard about that. Especially Catholics who clicked that link back in 2008.
There were a few die hard 0bama supporters who got up and walked out at 10:00 mass yesterday. They had better get prepared to get severe chastising.
Now the body that includes ALL canonical Orthodox Bishops in America has joined the Roman Catholic Bishops in opposing obama’s mandate for abortion and sterilization:
http://www.aoiusa.org/blog/2012/02/orthodox-bishops-speak-out-against-hhh-mandate/
The evil muslim obama and his New World Order puppet-masters—along with their other muslim, feminist, and “gay” cohorts—are wielding their demographic engineering and mass-murder plan, disguised as “health care”, on the American people.
Christians—as well as others—must STAND UP and RESIST obama and all his evil hordes—including the union goons and thugs and muslim terrorists who do their dirty work.
Nothing irks me more than this issue.
My dastardly MIL shoved Obama in my face back in 2008. She told me I was hostile and “needed prayer” because I was so angry about him running for president and/or winning. (can’t exactly remember the time).
She voted for Obama. She convinced ALL her bingo friends and family to vote for him, too. They were “mad” at Bush. They were mad at republicans, at the whole deal. They were IN THE TANK for Obama. I told her he was pro-abortion, pro-death, pro-homosexual, anti-military ...it didn’t mean a hill of BEANS. She laughed it. At the time, I hung up the the phone and haven’t spoken to her since. It’s been a HUGE rift in our family. And her son is a career military officer who has served in Iraq TWICE. She doesn’t care.
And now this. It just makes me FUME. She is a weekly mass goer ...a DAILY mass goer in her parish. She is “in” with the priests, and brags about it, always has.
THESE are the VERY people who handed his win to him.
I find it highly ironic that these Bishops have all these years, allowed these types of Catholics to sit in their pew and attend Mass, and receive the sacraments.
Come ON. Let’s be HONEST Catholic bishops .. .you let your horses out of the barn a long time ago. You reap what you sow. Now we’re all going to pay. I hope it’s not too late.
They also better repent and come to Confession—sooner rather than later!
Exactly! In WNY, the Catholic church has been in the tank for the communist/Marxist democrats for as long as I can remember.
They are in the same boat IMO as American Jews who seem to have a greater love of Marxism than for their own country or their own religion.
Just like in Wilson's days, the progressives (aka REAL communists and Marxists) feel it was safe to come out of the closet so as to push their agenda of collapsing the USA to its ultimate conclusion and it would seem finally most Catholics and some American Jews have seen the writing on the wall but the question is; Is this too little too late.
The core of this country has been damaged on so many fronts can enough people see what the democrat party has become and will they be willing to work to put them out of business? I doubt it.
To ALL Catholics, remember this drift towards Marxism has been incremental and as soon as we get used to one form of government evil another one is begun.
Without a doubt, if the federal government is allowed to mandate this what on GOD's green earth will ever stop them from making Church funding of abortion mandatory? While it would serve the church right for their drift to the left, it would destroy the lives of millions of unborn.
I love rubbing their noses in him. I ask “How’s all that hopey-changey crap working for you?” especially to those union guys who are now unemployed. Most admit 0bama was one bigass mistake. Polls nonwithstanding, he will have a hard time winning even in Illinois.
The problem is that there are not 77 million Catholics in the US; there are 77 million “Catholics” in the US. Three out of four Americans who identify themselves as Catholics wouldn’t care if every Catholic school, hospital, and social service agency shut down in this country.
This could be game changing. I really hopes 0bama doesn't back down to keep the fire going. I have never heard a more direct blast against democRats.
Wow. That’s wonderful news. May God continue to bless the Orthodox Bishops for their support in this trying hour.
