I’m not a New Yorker, but I think Governer Cuomo should go. He’s been an embarassment in more than one case.

He is wrong on Life, Fracking, and the 2nd Amendment.

Someone ought to photo-shop him as Obama's Mini-Me and then have Bloomberg and even Mini-er-Me on Andrew the Incompetents lap...

Importantly, I see this as a multi-front attack by the Democrats against the Catholic church, in that not too long ago, Illinois tried to require them to provide adoptive children to homosexuals. Then Obama came out with his birth control mandate. And now this.

There should be some way in which the church can take the federal government to court, in effect stating that this represents across the board religious persecution against the Catholic church, and ask the court to enjoin the government against such actions.

It is legally comparable to the federal government systematically persecuting black people because of the color of their skin.

Everything godly and moral is under attack from the left.

You are correct the Marxists are in constant attack mode, always probing for weaknesses, they have taken the initiative on many fronts and we are on continual defense.

This is the typical progression of progressivism. What was once clearly unthinkable becomes marginal, then acceptable, and ultimately, mandatory.

Cuomo The Lesser clearly doesn't believe in God...or hell...despite of any claims he might make to the contrary.But that doesn't mean that he won't someday meet Him...or see it.

You have to look at the end game.

The government wants the Catholic Church OUT of the hospital business. The government hates competition.

What they WANT the Church to do is just give up. The State will levy huge fines against the Church for refusing to perform abortions, then they will seize and take over the Church's property and all its contracts with physicians and nurses, to pay the fines.

They will get the physical plant and all the doctors for free.

Cuomo is as disgusting and despicable as his sleezy father was. He has done nothing to help New York except drive up taxes even more, engage in Obama’s class warfare and push local municipalities to the verge of bankruptcy. He and Sheldon Silver are the most vile liberals there are. And the New York republican party allows him to do what he wants.

The fascist democrats know their plans will destroy health care and they want to force Catholic hospitals, a third of the total, to close so they can blame the collapse on the Catholic Church. Half the population is stupid enough to believe it, too, just like they believe King Barry salvaged GM. King Barry and his crowd are up to the same thing, they want the system to collapse, whether it's the financial system, health care system, transportation system, power grid, or anything else that is a result of, "the evils of capitalism".

They want to start over with a blank slate and are going to destroy everything that is already in place in order to be able to do so.

There will be blood.

The minute they relax the prohibition on non-doctors performing abortions all the doctors in the trade will abandon it ~ as unprofitable, and New Yorkers will be back to the root-workers they are most comfortable with.

The number of abortions performed in NY will rapidly drop,

When they start forcing the church to perform gay marriages, I guess they will be forced to close the church too.

Let’s face it, they want the Catholic Church OUT OF BUSINESS period.

Pshaw!

Here in Texas, we’re told, not only by the Archbishop last week, in the appeal for money video but this week by the visiting priest, that Latinos are what are keeping the Church afloat.

THe “gringos” were laughed at, he used the word “gringos” in the sermon in order to mock.

It makes no difference that the Latino vote went to Obama, sealing abortion, nor that those who built the churches here in theUS have enwured its being afloat.

The future of the Church lies in the authentic Catholic remnant.

The panderers can put the legal and illegals up on a pedestal until this whole region adores them and speaks their language. They won’t be the ones contributing to the Church or fighting against abortion.

But this state will be blue and what’ll be left?

The Church will never close, it will go underground as it has done in the past if necessary.

The NYT atttacked Cruz today.

OB attacks the Church.

Neither attacks Graham nor McCain.

WE are known by our enemies and if they aren’t attacking, we aren’t doing it correctly.
