LOL. That's funny because Mitt ALREADY appealed to a majority of conservatives. A quick perusal of any of the primary exit polls will confirm that fact for you. And, the last time I looked, the people who support him, like Ann Coulter, Judge Robert Bork, Jim DeMint, Rick Santorum and this guy are all pretty conservative.
Supporting the killing of innocent human life obviously excommunicates one from the church. Such a depraved moral state would automatically render one unworthy to receive communion.
You mean any, or any on McCain's short list?
Sam Brownback, Rick Santorum, and Bobby Jindal are all Catholics and all pro-life.
His health care reform plan was mostly devised by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank who counts among it's most prominent members, Margaret Thatcher who very recently did a radio ad for them.
I suppose by extension and the parameters you set, Salvation, the members of the Heritage Foundation who largely devised Mitt's health care plan, and Margaret Thatcher are socialists too?
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
Pawlenty is the youngest child of his birth family. By the time he was 17 years old, both parents had died. So, he was more-or-less orphaned during his teenage years. His older siblings sort of took him under their wings. This must have been a traumatic time for him.
I would not judge him on his change of religious faith. I would judge him more on being able to overcome such a hard knock so early in life and become a very faithful Christian, husband, and father. His wife, Mary, is an evangelical, and a lawyer. She is a judge now.
**I would love to have a no-lawyer ticket. Obama, Michelle, and Joe are all lawyers.**
I like that idea.
There are statements by Archbishop Chaput in this post:

Where might I find this in displayable form?

Under the same rules he cannot support Obama in a political effort to promote such evils and continue to receive Holy Communion at Mass. These are the official rules and law in the Catholic Church. For Biden to suggest otherwise is blasphemous and a lie. It not falls to the bishops of Wilmington and Washington, D.C. to clarify this since Biden is now the partner of a candidate who promotes infanticide, the most extreme pro-abortion and pro-infanticide position in American history and the Western world.
No, I meant in general, not anybody's short list. Read off and on about the three you mentioned, didn't know they were Catholic, don't/can't keep up with all of it. Thanks.
Salvation, thanks, too, I have read several threads about Chaput and much on all those other links is familiar to me. I looked up Obama's voting record way back when on my own, and think he took some of it off his senate page, couldn't swear to it, and not making accusations of what I can't prove. Then it was harder to track it down to credible sources. Now it seems to be out there.
It's elementary. Without life, you have no voters!
Catholic Ping List
Please freepmail me if you want on/off this list
Don’t know that he is on the short list or not, but Sam Brownback is Catholic and pro-life.
Michael Steele.
Mildy? When he was running against Hillary Clinton, he was more pro-abortion that she was. He is 100% for later term abortion, even Hillary hedged on that.
Ahh well, the Archbishop did state last night on World Over Live, that he will be in a March for Life along with Dr King's niece, during the convention.
Shame on Biden he should be standing next to them.
Actually I was presently surprised. I didn't think Cardinal Egan had it in him.
Since Obama favors killing any poor souyl who happens to survive an abortion, what do Catholics require to oppose him? Rather, what can Obama offer to make Catholics vote for him...even among VP candidates?
