Yep, this is the same “Catholic” University that invited Obama ( the same one who REFUSED to support the Born Alive Babies Act ) to be the honored speaker at their commencement and (get this) CONFERRING AN HONORARY DEGREE ON HIM.

So when may we expect Fr. Jenkins and other Notre Dame faculty members to join the 25 who are taking a stand for righteousness?

Prof. Carter Snead, a professor of law at Notre Dame, was one of the lead organizers of the statement, which was published on his official law school letterhead. Notre Dame's top ethics expert, Snead serves as director of the university's Center for Ethics and Culture, a position to which he was appointed by Father John Jenkins, the president of Notre Dame.

In 2009, Father Jenkins awarded President Barack Obama an honorary Notre Dame law degree.

Some of the other distinguished Notre Dame faculty who signed the statement condemning Obama’s mandate are Prof. Patrick Griffin, chairman of Notre Dame's History Department; Prof. Richard Garnett, an associate dean; John Cavadini, director of Notre Dame’s Institute for Church Life; Christian Smith, director of Notre Dame’s Center for the Study of Religion and Society; Prof. Paolo Carozza, director of Notre Dame’s Center for Civil and Human Rights; Prof. Philip Bess, Notre Dame’s Director of Graduate Studies; and Father Wilson Miscamble, a professor of history.

Other leading organizers of the letter included Prof. Robert George of Princeton and Prof. Mary Ann Glendon of Harvard Law School.

Notre Dame just learned that an BHO promise will last until he decides it is no longer of any value to him, or until he departs the room, which ever comes first.

It is an insult ... to imagine that they will accept an assault on their religious liberty if only it is covered up by a cheap accounting trick

YES!!!

Finally someone said it!

Isn’t Norte Dame the school that had to cover up the Cross when Obama spoke? That should have been there first clue where he was coming from. We need to start waking up the country.

Notre Dame could exhibit real courage and rescind Obama’s honorary degree. That would get some headlines about the little tyrant.

Well, BH0 will come out with some prime time speech soon, to be sure that we all are told that, those who disagree with this whole contraception/insurance stuff, must really just not understand him.

And how stupid does he think we are to say that the insurance companies will cover the cost; not the employers. ??

Give me a break.

Notre Dame has already slept with their beloved Obama. It’s tough for me to see any credibility in their actions now... it’s just too late.

It’s all about population control. Billy Ayers, Barry Soetooro and Ruth Ginsburg are really into that.

Ginsburg had this to say about her feelings “at the time”:
“Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”

Bill Ayers:

I asked, “Well what is going to happen to those people we can’t reeducate, that are diehard capitalists?” And the reply was that they’d have to be eliminated.

And when I pursued this further, they estimated they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers.

And when I say “eliminate,” I mean “kill.”

Twenty-five million people.

I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of which have graduate degrees, from Columbia and other well-known educational centers, and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people and they were dead serious.

John Holdren, Putting forth pure evil
Obama’s Population Control Czar

Back in 1977 a man by the name of John Holdren co-authored a book entitled Ecoscience along with Paul and Anne Ehrlich. In the book several assertions are made with regard to the dangers of over population and the potential solutions. Forced abortions, mass sterilization, and a “Planetary Regime” with the power of life and death over American citizens are in the forefront of Holdren’s preferred methods.

Holdren has been appointed Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, and Co-Chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology by Barack Obama.

and of course who will ever forget this:

“I’ve got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby. I don’t want them punished with an STD at the age of 16.”

Barry Barack Hussein Soetoro Obama
