Catholic clergy have to stop the charade of being non political or impartial. How could any legitimate Catholic clergyman give credence to the Democrat convention. The Democrat convention by its own admission will be a celebration of abortion and homosexuality. They will renominate a man who not only celebrates abortion but heartily endorses partial birth abortion.The key speaker will be the degenerate Bill Clinton. If Dolan or any other high ranking Catholic prelate gave a blessing at that evil convocation, it would be a sin.
...How could any legitimate Catholic clergyman give credence to the Democrat convention. ...
The answer from Psalm 23: Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil,
If, as noted above by Dr. Sivana and Campaign Pete R-CT and later by Tennessee Nana, Timothy Cardinal Dolan will be accepting the Republican POTUS nomination, then God has truly intervened to save us from the worst mistake made since the nominations of Herbert Hoover. If true, perhaps, the Demonrats may be influenced by God as well and dump their presumptive nominee in favor of Timothy Cardinal Dolan. If not:
Both Obozo and Mittler are fond of persecuting the Roman Catholic Church and all other pro-life churches. There is no reason for Timothy Cardinal Dolan to endorse either.
Timothy Cardinal Dolan may feel free to use the following blessing, if the Democrats invite him and no attribution or royalty need be offered (my gift to my Church of which I am merely an unworthy member):
"Oh, God, bless the Democratic Party by guiding it to a full return to genuine pro-life principles protecting innocent human life, and to its prior historic commitment to normal marriage between one man and one woman for life and to understand and abide by God's commandment to not commit adultery, and to a firm respect for religious liberty as guaranteed in the First Amendment to our Constitution, and to a full commitment to the individual right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment and which characterized Christian Crusaders in earlier centuries, and to an understanding of the primacy of the family as THE basic institution of human society in the terms laid down by Pope Leo XIII of happy memory in his encyclical Rerum Novarum, and may God inspire even those in our nation's highest offices to know Him, love Him and serve Him in this world and be happy with Him forever in the next, especially in those cases in which the officeholders, by their prior lives have expressed contempt for Him and for His commandments throughout their lives to date. We ask this in Jesus's name. Amen."
Substitute "Republican" for Democrat for delivery at the GOP Convention. Totally even-handed and not seen as an endorsement of either party or candidate in this God-forsaken year of 2012. If either party or candidate feels the lash from such a blessing, let it or he examine their or his conscience (if any).
Cardinal Dolan will be praying at the REPUBLICAN convention in TAMPA, Florida, that’s if the hurricane prevents him from going. He is NOT speaking at the Democrat convention.
