Obamanation & ND

I have read many posts and emails from Catholics telling me to give Obama a chance. One said, "I will give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to pro-life issues."
Have they not read Obama's very words on his pro-abortion stance?
Have they not seen what he has done already?
Maybe I am not enough of a fighter. It just makes me cry in bewilderment and shame for our country and for many fellow Catholics.


Here is an example that illustrates that kind absolute bewilderment I feel. Anyone else?

Thank goodness I found this . . . . Bishop Finn has the words that were locked inside my mind and heart. I could not reach them because I am just so tired of the struggle. NOT too tired to give up, mind you. Just too tired to pull the words out coherently.

I keep coming back and adding to this post. My Catholic Notebook is designed just for this kind of growing reflection and post gathering. I found this at Musings@85
This is Father Weslin’s biography, taken directly from his book, The Gathering of the Lambs.

Father Norman retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Army after twenty years of active military service. He was a paratrooper, commander, and chief of a war plans division on the General Staff. He was the Operations Officer responsible for the nuclear-tipped missile defense of New York City, Chicago and South Korea.

Father Norman was a married man with a wife, two children, and two grandchildren. He has been involved in the pro-life movement for twenty-five years. He and his wife started Birthrights, Life Support Centers, and political action committees in an effort to stop the killing of Jesus’ babies.

After his wife’s death in an automobile accident in 1980 he converted his home into a “home for pregnant, unwed mothers.” 252 mothers have since lived in the Mary Weslin Home for Pregnant, Unwed Mothers. 115 babies have been born directly through the home. At this time Father has five pregnant women living in his home.

Father was an alcoholic for twenty years. He recovered thirty-one years ago. He worked as a priest with Mother Teresa for a nine-month learning experience — counseling alcoholics and drug addicts in the slums of New York.

After twelve years of picketing killing centers and sidewalk counseling, Father realized that we could not stop satan’s multi-billion dollar child-killing industry by ourselves but that Jesus could and would if we made the sacrifice of confronting satan directly at the killing centers.

Though he was cruelly treated he submitted humbly and said not a word like a lamb led to slaughter. Isaiah 53:7

This video needs no comment. You decide if we have here a crazy old man or a martyr for Jesus’ babies.

CATHOLIC PRIEST ARRESTED AT NOTRE DAME FOR BEING CATHOLIC

"Police following protocol" means that John Jenkins gave them the green light to arrest them that day because he chose prestige over principle.
