For many Catholics, the most important letter after “C” for Catholic is “D” for Democrat, and I don’t think we can change their minds. For many, the “D” even trumps the “C”.

Like I asked before...how many millions of Catholics voted for this bastard?

Dear God they should be haning their heads in shame.

I don’t consider anybody in my “Catholic” family Catholic, if Catholic means you can only have one master.

And there are a lot more liberal “Catholics” than my family.

I wish the fake Catholics would leave the church.

I think I read that 54% of Catholics voted for Hussein but he lost white catholics in Pennsylvania. The Hispanic Catholics probably gave Hussein the edge.

Show me just one Catholic bishop who will speak up against coveting your neighbors’ goods. That is why Catholics ignored the Bishops on abortion. They know abortion is wrong but overlooked the Dems on that point because those same politicians pandered to their covetousness. Same for protestants and evangelical pastors, leaders and activists. American politics and government at all levels is driven by government-mediated coveting. Until the Church takes a stand against this we can expect to sink deeper and deper into socialism and, oh yeah, abortion.

A more significant measure of Obama's Catholic support will be the percentage of regular Mass-attending Catholics who voted for him.

There's a good chunck of mass-going Catholics that are Democrates. I'm sure most of their children aren't practicing at all since there is nothing distinguishing their parents from the prevailing culture.

I’m having a difficult time separating my faith from the culture. It’s hard to go to Mass and know that a large percentage of those hypocrits voted for Obama and you know, it wasn’t even because of their wish for the common good, i.e., peace and justice - but because they are comfortable with the Joe Biden argument - personally opposed to abortion yadayada yada.

Early last night on Fox, 3 large groups of voters in Ohio were analyzed as to how they were voting.

Evangelicals broke convincing for McCain versus those in favor of Obama. I don’t recall these figures clearly, but I believe Obama only netted around 36 percent with this group.

The Unions was sort of the reverse of that ratio but in considering the Unions, that still isn’t that awful.

But Catholics in Ohio, the percentage I took note of was about 52 percent for McCain, 48 percent for Obama. Close to equal.

Yes, consideration should be taken as to how to deal with these Catholics. They should not be permitted to remain in the Church as far as I am concerned.

By the way, Ohio is home to the famous Franciscan University in Steubenville (birthplace of Dean Martin as well). I’d hope that University supported McCain.

I feel like we’re the sinning Jewish nation in Old Testament times.

I know you are not blaming it all on Catholics, for Obamanation lured many evangelicals his way also.

Let's hope the Bishops don't wait another 4 years to get out an election letter on abortion. A letter on the morality of abortions should be directed to sexually active females several times a year to keep the issue alive to those who make 'choice'. Doubt we will see one since there is a scarcity of instruction on shacking up and use of contraceptives if Bishops still considered these issues of morality. Or are they considered lost causes.

The American Bishops give nothing but lip service to the protection of the unborn.

Talk is cheap and they are cowards.

As you said in another post, the evangelicals voted for Obama a lot also.

We as a people have the blood of millions of babies on our hands, and the majority don't care.

Certain Catholic apologists for the Bush administration and the ill-conceived Iraq invasion also bear some blame for enabling and energizing the left.

Many Catholic Republicans were unwilling to criticize Bush until he became unpopular. This unwillingness actually helped ensure the president would become unpopular, because his mistakes would remain uncorrected.

They "helped" Bush help Obama.

I am a converted Catholic. I’m ashamed that any Catholic would vote for Barack Obama.
