Please don't be a fu## head. I challenge assertions on this board - I do not insult people. You several that have may learn from that. I have heard (rumor, not verified) estimates (projections, speculations) that over 50 percent of Catholic bishops voted for Obama in 2008.
Let's analyze my assertion. Many Catholic bishops have advocated for statism, for federal dollars to go to their causes. Many Catholic bishops are okay with sanctuary for illegal immigrants.
I can't believe the bishops are that much more grounded in reality and rationality that some would not see the "history" in the 2008 Obama election and the erasure of race as a factor in society and all of that tripe. And I certainly can't see that when a big majority of Catholics voted for Obama in 2008 that there were not a similar number of votes from the bishops.
I am not insulting Catholics. I am marveling at the fact of the letter to be read at mass. I am grateful for it.
I don't know who the "XX% of Catholics voted for Obama" posts that are present on any Catholic thread are supposed to move (well, yeah, I do), but I don't see the profit in them.
If you are concerned about Bishops sho vote for Obama, or push immigration "tolerance," or other social justice agendas, take it up with them. This conservative Catholic knows all too well and is tired of the implied slander.
