Please post all information about today's protests here.

My phone is already ringing steadily.

Our AIP folks on the ground at the Notre Dame gates report that the CBR plane is in the air.

[muawiyah]

Guy has a really, really loud voice. Looks like Obama had his boys haul him away for a beat down.

The way you do this is you have another guy jump up and do the same thing from a different part of the audience a little later.

[nothinglefttolose]

Notre Dame is French for Our Lady...ie the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ

Imagine if Mary had chosen abortion.

There are Notre Dame trustees who directly support [sic] Obama administration goals. Dr. Mary Anne Fox is chancellor at U[niversity of] C[alifornia] San Diego and Vice-Chair of the National Science Board. Recently Fox announced the opening of a new research facility where the school will cultivate and experiment on human embryonic stem cells. The laboratory will partner with Scripps Research and the Salk Institute in La Jolla, CA where Fox also sits on the leadership council. In 2007 the Institute hosted a stem cell ethics conference. R. Alta Charo, bioethicist and advisor to the Obama transition team was a key speaker. At UCSD the bio-engineering department has just established a partnership with Tsinghua University in China, to further their research.

Is Jenkins doing doublespeak?

Obama plans on plenty of doublespeak in his speech. One part of his speech:

............."Let's honor the conscience of those who disagree with abortion, and draft a sensible conscience clause, and make sure that all of our health care policies are grounded in clear ethics and sound science, as well as respect for the equality of women." .............

He is of course speaking about the conscience clause that he threatened to rescind in late February of this year. Obama Plans to Rescind Healthcare 'Conscience Clause'

The Obama administration announced Friday (Feb. 27) plans to rescind regulations that allow healthcare workers to abstain from performing medical procedures they object to on moral grounds.

The Bush administration authored the rule shortly before leaving office last December, primarily to shield those with religious or moral opposition to abortion. It said healthcare workers cannot be discriminated against for refusing to participate in objectionable procedures, and facilities that did not accommodate employees with objections could lose federal funding..............

Absolutely. These little idiots will be conservatives in a few years’ time when they figure out that being a Jim Jones-type cultist doesn’t cut it in the REAL world.

[rockabyebaby]

Yes, this IS the new world order, no booing, no disagreeing, you MUST bow down to the MASTER - or else.

[CheneyChick]

Imagine if Obama’s mama had chosen abortion.

[OafOfOffice]

It sure does not seem like they will suffer at all with the students booing protesters and ecstatic over obama.

[bgill]

Chicago power at Notre Dame extends to political posts as well.
