Catholic Case Against Barack
08/12/2008
Pat Buchanan
*** begin quote ***
In the Pennsylvania primary, Barack Obama rolled up more than 90 percent of the African-American vote. Among Catholics, he lost by 40 points. The cool liberal Harvard Law grad was not a good fit for the socially conservative ethnics of Altoona, Aliquippa and Johnstown.
But if Barack had a problem with Catholics then, he has a far higher hurdle to surmount in the fall, with those millions of Catholics who still take their faith and moral code seriously.
For not only is Barack the most pro-abortion member of the Senate, with his straight A+ report card from the National Abortion Rights Action League and Planned Parenthood. He supports the late-term procedure known as partial-birth abortion, where the baby’s skull is stabbed with scissors in the birth canal and the brains are sucked out to end its life swiftly and ease passage of the corpse into the pan.
*** and ***
Before any devout Catholic, Evangelical Christian or Orthodox Jew votes for Obama, he or she might spend 15 minutes in Chapter 10 of Freddoso’s “Case Against Barack.” For if, as Catholics believe, abortion is the killing of an unborn child, and participation in an abortion entails automatic excommunication, how can a good Catholic support a candidate who will appoint justices to make Roe v. Wade eternal and eliminate all restrictions on a practice Catholics legislators have fought for three decades to curtail?
And which Catholic priests and prelates will it be who give invocations at Obama rallies, even as Mother Church fights to save the lives of unborn children whom Obama believes have no right to life and no rights at all?
*** end quote ***
Pat nails the pseudo Catholic right to the Cross. How can one claim the label “Catholic” and yet be pro-aboirtion. Or, in anyway support such a pro-abortion candidate.
And, I’m not judging anyone. Far above my pay grade, and I have my own flaws to fix.
HOWEVER, I’ll make an excpetion for the pseudo Catholic politicians we see int he media today. They beg for a come uppance!
Now there are many issues that one can have a debate about, but abortion, speciifcall partial birth or live birth abortion, is hard to see the other side’s pov. Think of all the Einsteins, Pastuers, and Hawkings that have been vacuumed from their mother’s womb. The Free Love generation has given us a travesty far worse than “back alley abortions”. Now, clearly we need a lot less “laws” and a lot more common sense. I trust Moms and their Doctors to do the right thing without some politician “helping” them with a bunch of one-size fits all “laws”. Tossing people in jail or forcing folks to do what they don’t want is not the basis of a peaceful society.
I hope Pat keeps up the heat on these very confused people (aka pseudo-Catholics).
