Barack Obama may have just lost the election. He has foolishly gone to war in an election year with tens of millions of Catholics, Protestants and Jews – Democrat, Republican and independent alike. He has thrown down a radical feminist gauntlet and dared the Church to pick it up.
They’ve picked it up.
From running up trillions in debt and deficit, to the vast expansion of the size and scope of federal bureaucracy, Mr. Obama has done more in three years to supplant our 236 year-old Constitutional Republic with a Euro-style socialist autocracy – than a lesser Marxist could have accomplished in a lifetime.
But controlling the purse strings is not nearly enough. A central element of full-blown secular-socialism is the suppression of religious liberty – principally, freedom of conscience.
Karl Marx once said: “The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion.”
When Karl Marx speaks, Barack Obama listens.

It's not even limited to the principle of religious liberty or freedom of speech.
It is about an unconstitutional assumption of power over rights which "the People" withheld from the purview of the government they structured through their Constitution. If this arrogation of power to the Executive is allowed to stand in this case, then all of "the People's" rights are at risk.
Inasmuch as their Constitution allowed no power to infringe on any specified right in the First Amendment, then the person who assumes such a power also does not possess a power to "compromise," or "accomodate."
May I suggest that readers of this thread read Leonard Read's "Anything That's Peaceful" and share this wonderful and easy-to-read book with as many people as you can.
Not only does Read provide insight into the ideas of liberty versus those of tyranny (as in socialism), but his Chapter 5, entitled, "How Socialism Harms the Individual" is especially enlightening for any who may not see what is happening in America in its proper context, as pertains to the individuals involved.
In Chapter 5, under the heading "The Authoritarian," he begins by stating, "Of the threee classifications of persons involved in social leveling by compulsion, the authoritarian--the one who administers the taking and the giving--has been too little diagnosed." When you read it, you will see the nature of the man before us today. This section of Chapter 5 paints a portrait most Americans will recognize.
Excellent. Thanks for posting.
All this means is that if Romney wins the GOP nomination he’ll have to work that much harder to lose to Obama in November.
Isn’t Karl Marx a “Dead White Man” ?
Karl Marx is dead and now a demon speaking to Obama from hell.
Feeling good about oneself through advocacy (IE, “social justice”)
far outweighs
going against traditional church doctrine.
I guarantee it.
Chairman Obama seems hell-bent on destroying as much of America as he can as fast as he can.
I’m praying dear leader only ends up destroying himself and his cancerous ideology.

I hope I’m wrong about this, but I feel the people pushing this Marxist agenda (that has been building for over 100 years) will now stop at nothing since their so close to bringing down the US that they will cause a global recession and enslave this country where they can have completely fixed elections to insure a victory or even postpone an election due to a tragic event they have planned.
In the end ,the Immaculate hear of Mary and Jesus will prevail!So, don’t worry as Blessed Saint Pio said!
the Immaculate hear of Mary and Jesus will prevail... should say The Immaculate HEART
I need a new computer since I have worn out the keyboard!
