Catholics to Cuomo: “Take a hike.”

Cuomo self-identifies as a faithful Catholic, and the bishop of Albany and the Archbishop of New York obviously don’t disagree.

How many NY Catholics still vote for these clowns? How many Christians vote for the party that boo God?

I just don’t understand it.

“and have been a member of Cuomo’s Council of Economic and Fiscal Advisors.”

So why does this so called Catholic have anything to do with a Cuomo?

Certainly the good bishop of Albany and the jolly archbishop of New York will set Coumo straight by lunch time tommorow. I should think.

Or, do they have a sense of humor about these things?

What will it take before the church finally understands that there are times when some who call themselves Catholics are so vile, so filled with hate and evil and even murder, that excommunication is called for?

To just proclaim that the church does not excommunicate anymore, or that such individuals self-excommunicate, are truthfully “cop-outs”, and a betrayal of the laity, that they not know that wolves are permitted to wander amongst them. A shepherd should not do that to his flock.

On a single Sunday, without mention or warning, every Priest in the state should tell his congregation that Cuomo is profane, that Catholics should never again have commerce with him, lest their own souls be imperiled, and that he is among the enemies of the church, who seek its destruction.

Cuomo is a Catholic himself.

NEW YORK, May 16, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – After New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan appeared to suggest during a radio interview this week that he may not view pro-abortion Governor Andrew Cuomo as a Catholic “in good standing,” the archdiocese has issued a statement saying that this is not the case, and that Dolan’s remark was misunderstood.

“Cardinal Dolan would not, and did not, suggest the governor might not be a Catholic in good standing going forward,” archdiocesan spokesman Joseph Zwilling said in a statement originally sent to the New York Times, and forwarded to LifeSiteNews.”

I’m not a NYer so please bear with me.

Is Cuomo living in a self-deceptive fantasy world where liberals like him believe that their opinions reflect majority voter opinion? The reason that I ask is that I cannot see Cuomo pushing a voter referendum to decide issues like abortion for example. Or have NYers approved leftist issues like abortion through referendums?

...Cuomo has joined those whom historian Richard Hofstadter described as “totalitarian liberals”...

As opposed to those other kinds of liberals... uh... wait a minute...

When Paul Castellano , a big Mafia boss was murdered in 1985 by rival mobsters, Cardinal O’Connor denied him a Catholic burial and entombment in a Catholic cemetery due to his open, unrepentant criminal life. Cardinal Dolan needs to do some serious thinking and reflection.

Cuomo is a Democrat and that’s how they think. Vote them out, vote them all out!

And yet the RINOS on our team try to reach out and find common ground with these lefty idiots. When will they figure out that the Dems want to take out every last one of us who is a non-liberal. They don’t want to find consensus with us. They want to destroy us!

Cardinal Dolan and the bishops of New York’s other eight dioceses have an obligation to respond and to condemn anyone – especially any Catholic public figure – who threatens those who adhere to Church doctrine.

Indeed!

‘By claiming that people who disagree with his cultural views “have no place in the state of New York,” Cuomo has joined those whom historian Richard Hofstadter described as “totalitarian liberals,” people who employ illiberal means to achieve so-called liberal reforms.’

Exactly.
