Ping!
Most of those “Catholics” who voted for Obama are pagans. They don’t go to church, they don’t believe in a god other than the state, they favor abortion and gay marriage. The media love to lump all “Catholics” together to try and show a fissure between Catholics and their church. However, I am confident that faith filled Catholics overwhelmingly voted for Romney.
Unfortunately, too many Romney votes ended up being switched to 0bama or discarded all together. The regime is a separate country working within our own. They laugh at us now.
For George W, that was in 2004, he lost the Catholic vote to Gore in 2000, and they voted Clinton in 1992.
There are numerous pagans among Catholics.
Let’s not forget that “Catholics” started the French revolution with all its anti-Catholic violence. The same is true for the Spanish civil war during which many thousands of priests and nuns were slaughtered by “Catholics”.
I’m still here, LOL!
See George Weigel’s recent interview with Raymond Arroyo. THere were two, this one is the first one, like a week before election day or so.
He claims there is no “Catholic vote”, but a, oh, now I am going to forget it, a faithful or a practicing religious vote.
Of course, pracicing Catholics can not vote for a pro abortion candidate and they know it.
The biggest problem I see with this article is that it seems to imply that the Catholic vote will never return. On the one hand he says they’re dying. Are they dying at a faster rate than other constituencies? Are their offspring switching to other faiths? Are they simply not voting? (He says that at one point in the article too)
Their jobs are shipped throughout the world, their unions busted, education costs have skyrocketed, as has health care costs, retirement plans have drifted away and they still staff the armies. The GOP has to become their supporters or kiss them goodbye. Right now they get the back of their hand from many of them.
The Catholic vote is not going anywhere, it is returning to it’s historical place, a permanently democratic vote.
I'd say there is an apparent reason, and it's glaringly apparent concerning millions who are chronically on our various welfare programs. Do these great 'experts' and 'analysts' ever ask: what value do some people put on having almost unlimited free time, less money and material things, but all their time to themselves?
Of course, it would be extremely Un-PC for politicians and other prominent figures to acknowledge that, no, they are all hardworking folks just down on their luck, and would jump at the first job opportunity to come their way.
Everyone puts a value on their free time, and I think we have many who want as much as possible, even if they live a less financially affluent life.
“About 650 Catholic World War II and Korean War veterans die every day. That translates into 950,000 in the last four years. Add spouses and the number may easily have hit 2 million...”
Someone is either quite bad at math, or there are quite a few 90 year old polygamous Catholics.
I’ll vote for writers being bad at math.
They’re too many cowards and commies in the Church today.

Grow up.
The reason why the Catholic vote is disappearing from the states mentioned is because over the last 20 to 30 years they have moved out of state and are now making up the blue majority in other states.
there’s a lot more to this subject. Read his bio to consider where he is coming from. Philisophically, Catholics are with the Dems on spreading the wealth to less fortunate, and are not on board with tough love. GOP does not get that point across. I don’t know what this guy’s point is about, or why he wrote it.
Apologies for the double post.
It seems most Catholics in the USA are a joke. They are nothing more than Kennedy Catholics and don’t really believe in their nominal religion at all. Makes this convert who was convicted intellectually of the truths of the Catholic faith a bit cross that cradle Catholics just don’t give a hoot, and are Democratic Obama-, abortion- and same sex marriage- believers first and Catholics a distant second if that.
