It is because killing unborn children trumps everything. They want easy access to women with no consequences, without having to pay for it.

From the article:

“Pope Francis presented President Obama with a copy of his apostolic exhortation Evangelii Gaudium (”The Joy of the Gospel”), which criticizes some public figures who attempt to marginalize the pro-life message by presenting it as “ideological, obscurantist, and conservative.”...
The president said he may look at it. “You know, I actually will probably read this when I’m in the Oval Office,” Obama responded, “when I am deeply frustrated, and I am sure it will give me strength and will calm me down.””

Seriously? He says he MAY look at it? He thinks that if he MAY look at it it will give him strength and calm him down?

Such arrogance! People blinded by the god of this world (Satan) betray themselves with their words. The Lord isn’t here to to serve or strengthen us so that we can proceed with our own agenda. We are here to glorify God and to obey his commands, out of thankfulness for his divine Salvation through Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.

The encyclical is not the only gift Pope Francis gave to Obama. the other is ..

For his part, Pope Francis presented the president with two bronze medals. One, called the “Medallion With an Angel — Solidarity and Peace,” depicts an angel, mystical in appearance, embracing and bringing together the Northern and Southern Hemispheres of the Earth, while overcoming the opposition of a dragon.

“The figure of the angel illustrates contemporary challenges: bringing the world’s northern and southern regions together and harmonizing them, while combating all disruptive forces, such as exploitation, intransigent opposition, new forms of colonialism, indifference, mistrust and prejudice,” the Vatican explained in an accompanying note.

Obama was way out classed and outranked ..again.

AN easy job, I must admit but the pope did a splendid job of providing a massive Contrast to obie’s shallow sick slick pretensions

Patience is a virtue, yes...

But sometimes, a good healthy dose of righteous anger - especially when the enemy of what you believe and hold dear is standing right in front of you - is a good thing too.

Frankly I don't know how I would have responded to The Great Leader.

I most certainly cant deny my anger about obamas vile plans, but how I might react to his presence were I pope..is a mystery.

Perhaps Id have had an Honorary Portait to offer him as a gift..

Tried to post this, but source is not welcome. Too bad you know...we don’t get accurate information from ‘acceptable’ sources. This is a quote from the Pope...

“It brings infinite joy to my heart to realize that myself and his holiness, President Obama, have been chosen by our Gods to pursue this truly miraculous path. Just as I have been chosen by my Christ, President Obama was chosen by Allah to lead his people in these challenging and difficult times of such strife.”

Obama MUST have admitted to being Muslim to the Pope, else why would the Pope have referenced ‘Allah’????? This is a HUGE public revelation....the media is silent.

Let’s just say The Papal Pimp Hand would be strong with me... and I’d need a LOT of prayer...

My wife said she was surprised obama and all those accompanying him didn’t burst into flames. Apparently Satan isn’t afraid of the pope.
