maybe he will qualify for pro-abortion when the SOTUS nominee is announced this week. Judge Woods anyone?

Obama fought harder than anyone to prevent consequences for doctors who "terminated" those viable fetuses that somehow got out of the womb alive during abortion procedures.

(Usually a partial-birth abortion procedure and the baby slipped all the way out before the doctor could get to the bruesome parts of the procedure, in case you were wondering how the baby can "somehow" escape the womb.)

I hope it’s the one whose on the board at Notre Dame. That way we’ll get the whole corrupt ND board of trustee’s on the map. They need to be outed.

I'm proposing that Catholics stop contributing to the church due of the hypocrisy of the church leadership.
If you're Catholic you're aware of it. Comparing contributions to the Catholic church to paying taxes assumes church and state operate under the same moral code.
Remember that it was the government that had to step in to put an end to the Church's "situation" with priests who were using their own congregates for their sexual pleasures. The Catholic Church chose to look away.

1) The Church leadership (diocesan, national and papal) gets about 10% from the regular parochial collection. The rest goes to the parish.

2) If your parish doesn’t collect enough, it will close. If all good Catholics — those who seek out the best parishes — stop tithing, the best parishes will close while the worst ones will remain standing.

3) Religious orders do not, I believe, tithe up, except to the rest of their congregation. There are plenty (at least hundreds) of faithful religious orders/groups worldwide, like Priests for Life, the Fraternity of St. Peter, the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity (SOLT).

The Editor-in-chief of the Vatican newspaper, L’Osservatore Romano explained today to Paulo Rodari, a Vatican analyst for the daily “Il Riformista,” that President Barack Obama’s speech to graduates of Notre Dame was very respectful and that he “is not a pro-abortion president.”

Sounds like something a DEMOCRAT would say.

What is this guy smoking? This is a disaster. If there weren’t already enough Catholics voting Democrat, now they’ve just had reinforced in their tiny little brains that Democrats are pro-life and it’s ok to vote for them.
