A high-ranking cardinal in the Vatican hierarchy took an unexpected shot Tuesday morning at the White House’s position on transgender use of bathrooms. The White House, however, would not comment.

Robert Cardinal Sarah, one of the top lieutenants of Pope Francis, surprised the 1,000-plus guests during his remarks at the annual National Catholic Prayer Breakfast in Washington D.C. by entering into the “bathroom battle,” a recent and very heated issue in the U.S.

“Should not a biological man use a man’s bathroom?” asked Cardinal Sarah, who is prefect of the Congregation of Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments in the Vatican; declaring, “It is as simple as that.” …

Obama won’t give a crap what some Cardinal says. If it was some Imam, that would be a different story ...

It takes a Cardinal to cry out that Emperor Obama has no clothes.

I don’t care what gender Barry is, he’s not welcome in my bathroom.

John Kennedy said we'll put men on the moon.

Barry Obama said we'll put men in women's restrooms.

My, how we've "progressed."

It is funny. All the leftists say they are for “science” but they don’t believe in biology.

you sound like you have experience doing that. I can think of other religions that are far left than the Catholic church but they just don’t seem to get attacked here.

I, too, am somewhat dismayed by the eagerness of some to dump on the Catholic Church (sorry about the pun). Catholics and Protestants alike - here’s a clue: the major problem as regards alternative interpretations of God’s will is not with each other’s response to the Bible, but rather with folks confused by material in some other book.

That having been said, it is true that Francis has squandered whatever moral clout he might have had in circumstances such as this by his sympathy to leftist fantasies, including stupidity like global warming.

I believe that your post says it all concerning both our leadership, our culture, and these dark times.

This move be Obama so saddens me. I do fear for the children. This is putting them needlessly in harm’s way.

These are little kids, like the man who followed a little girl into the restroom. He grabbed the child and choked her into until she was unconsious, Her mother was nearby and went to her aid. She tried to fight him off but couldn’t. The last she saw of her little girl, she was being carried into a stall. The mother screamed at the door and several men came to stop the man.

It sickens me that there are already cases of this kind because of satan driven madness. Think if it was your child! This child will now tramatized for the rest of her life.

My heart just breaks for the innocent who will be raped and left for dead over this hideous satanic act. All so pointless! The horror is just beginning! As if kids aren’t alrealy being preyed upon. Only the perverts gain from this.

The local police send out a list when known sex offenders have moved into their area. I was so shocked by knowing some who have moved in.There are more than you think.

There are far more than we think.Save our children!

“I’m assuming...”

Yes, you are. Try reading up on the subject.
Mark Twain advised, “Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt.”
