Obama's Salary Paid by CCD
Better Catholic Giving ^ | 3/7/12 | Rey Flores

Posted on 03/08/2012 6:08:19 AM PST by schmootman

In this election year, we have been confronted with all types of attacks on our Catholic faith. Those attacks have been orchestrated by the current Obama administration and by a number of so-called Catholic politicians. The USCCB bureaucrats and other anti-Catholic entities have led us down the plank and this document posted below is the first of many documents that Better Catholic Giving will be posting to prove that many, many efforts by the Catholic bishops have backfired and are coming back to bite us with the HHS mandate. Because we have allowed many of the peace & justice liberals to take over many of the charitable activities of the Catholic Church in America, we now have President Barack Hussein Obama selling us Catholics out through the HHS mandate.

Check it out & feel free to email me at Director@BetterCatholicGiving.org if you have any questions. For background on this, read my article from Crisis Magazine: The Catholic Campaign for Human Development: Reform or Bust

As part of his "wag the contraceptives" strategy, the President has started to brag that the Catholic Church paid his salary when he was a community organizer in the 1980's. Here's a recent quote: "In fact, my first job in Chicago was working with Catholic parishes in poor neighborhoods, and my salary was funded by a grant from an arm of the Catholic Church."

His point, of course, is that there is a "good Church" that supports him and a "bad Church" that has unfairly taken sides against him. Divide and Conquer.

Rey Flores, head of Better Catholic Giving, is releasing documentation of the monies paid to Obama and others who have turned around and bitten the hand that feeds them. As you can see, Campaign for Human Development gave Obama $33,000 in 1986.

Note also the large grant to Keith Kelleher, who now runs SEIU Healthcare. The left-wing takeover of healthcare in the US has been supported by our bishops since the 1980's!

WE. ARE. FUNDING. OUR. OWN. DEMISE.

And are deserving of every bit of it.

Who are the "WE" you vaguely reference?

As a Catholic, I've never given money to the CCHD and never will.

My oldest brother (may he rest in peace +2001) was a deacon in the church for 18 years prior to contracting lung cancer and his subsequent death.

He told our family that he had read a lot about the Campaign for Human Development and that in his opinion, the use of the funds by CHD was questionable and not necessarily doing good, but rather was supporting leftist causes. He told us not to give to the annual campaign for this organization. Every year we get envelopes in our packets for CHD. I throw them away. I suggest others do so too.

The “we” is any Catholic who hasn’t held his bishop accountable for this travesty. The corruption continues and only about 10 bishops have spoken out against it.
