I posted this on another related thread, but it is relevant here:

Since there will likely be a media blackout on the events outside of the graduation ceremony...

I believe God has placed a moral challenge on the shoulders of the graduates, most of whom are in their 16th year of formal Catholic education (even if the school is Catholic in name only). They need to make a statement INSIDE the forum.

If for the sake of the pomp and circumstance of the ceremony they merely sit quietly, then (IMHO) they are failing in their first test of their Christian identity.

Those who are truly Catholic should, when Obama is speaking, stand up and say loudly and clearly “Baby Killer” and walk out with their head held high (until the campus police and secret service smash their skull into the marble floor).

I just signed up to follow Jill Stanek on Twitter. If the regular media isn’t going to be allowed to report honestly, at least we have some other means of getting information.

EVERYONE,

Be sure to watch the arrest yesterday of a Catholic priest at Notre Dame.

Fr. Weslin as he is being arrested at Notre Dame asks “why would Notre Dame arrest a Catholic priest for protesting the killing of babies?”

Be sure to pass it on to your friends:
