To the non-Catholics on the list, I apologize that many of the pings lately are Catholic in nature. It is not intentional and is due largely to Zero's desire to defile Notre Dame and appoint extremely pro-death Catholics to high level posts in his administration.

Thread by me.

"We are at War!": Bishop Finn Delivers Rousing Clarion Call to the "Fight for Life" in America

OVERLAND PARK, Kansas, April 21, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Bishop Robert Finn of the diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph issued a powerful call to action to pro-lifers at the 2009 Gospel of Life Convention on Saturday. In his speech, Finn heavily criticized pro-abortion Catholic politicians who claim a "personal opposition" to abortion, stating that such persons are "warriors of death" who "have abandoned their place in the citizenship of the Church."

"As I speak a word of encouragement today I also want to tell you soberly, dear friends, 'We are at war!'" began Finn, who said that today's issues bring "an intensity and urgency to our efforts that may rival any time in the past."

The bishop warned that an empty version of the rhetoric of "tolerance" can come from people of all backgrounds, including Christians and Catholics: "The 'battle between believers,' who claim a certain 'common ground' with us, while at the same time, they attack the most fundamental tenets of the Church's teachings, or disavow the natural law - this opposition is one of the most discouraging, confusing, and dangerous," he said.

"Occasionally we still hear an elected official speak of his or her personal opposition to abortion, while they support the legal right to an abortion," he continued.

"We should be very clear: Such a person places him or herself completely OUTSIDE the moral framework, the moral imperative of Evangelium Vitae and other Church teaching on these issues. ... They have abandoned their place in the citizenship of the Church. Quite simply they have become warriors for death rather than life. . .

[Sebelius] Health [HHS] Nominee Veto Sickening

Statement by Mary Kay Culp, Executive Director, Kansans for Life: 913-406-4446

HEALTH NOMINEE VETO SICKENING

If this confirmation goes forward, George Tiller will have a friend, not only in the highest office in Kansas as he likes to brag, but heading the highest health office in the land, and knowing what we know, we think that ought to make every American sick.

Governor Sebelius, like her friend Napolitano, is extremely liberal, but especially so on late-term abortion, end of life issues and cloning. . .

Sebelius Veto Spurs Mounting Opposition

WASHINGTON, April 24 /Christian Newswire/ -- In response to last night's veto of Kansas Senate Bill 218, Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser called upon Senators to oppose vigorously her Secretary of Health and Human Services nomination:

"If there was any doubt about how a pro-life Senator ought to vote on the Sebelius nomination, there should be no doubt now," said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. "Sebelius should be opposed for many reasons, but primarily because her concern for abortion providers trumps her duty to protect women. Sebelius' eleventh hour veto of Kansas Senate Bill 218 should provide Senators on the fence the crucial information they need to know before voting. Governor Sebelius veto of this woman-centered legislation goes a long way toward protecting abortion providers like George Tiller, but does nothing to support women when they need it most."

The Susan B. Anthony List spearheaded a coalition letter to RNC Chairman Michael Steele, signed by 33 pro-life organizational and opinion leaders, asking him to oppose the Sebelius nomination. Susan B. Anthony List activists have sent over 42,000 letters of opposition to their Senators. . .

"We will not be silent.
We are your bad conscience.
The White Rose will give you no rest."
