“Immigration Reform”=Amnesty and Open Borders.
Hispanics vote pro-abortion.
Therefore: What Gomez and Dolan are promoting is MORE pro-aborts in public office, and MORE persecution of the Catholic Church through fascist laws like Obamacare.
Here is the “consensus”:
Quit cheating the law abiding, legal immigrants out of a living wage.
Get in line and apply for legal immigration.
Tell Obama to take all of his EPA, HHS, and Dept. of Education paperpushers and assign them to streamline the LEGAL IMMIGRATION process.
Did I forget to mention, CLOSE THE DAMN BORDER!?!?!
I just attended a rally against Obama’s abotion mandates in New York City. The Cardinal of New york City did not attend.I now feel it is a 75% chance that Cardinal Dolan will cave on this issue.At the Rally we surmised that Cardinal Dolan would “support”the rally by talking about capital punishment. We were close.
Agreed and well-said!!
Sadly, these bishops are being used as tools.
They try perfidiously to worm their way even into professedly Catholic and religious organizations. Again, without receding an inch from their subversive principles, they invite Catholics to collaborate with them in the realm of so-called humanitarianism and charity; and at times even make proposals that are in perfect harmony with the Christian spirit and the doctrine of the Church.

>>Children are often the innocent victims of these policies, which leave them without parents and with less opportunity to live a full and productive life in their home country, the United States.
The separation problem is solved if the illegals take their “anchor babies” with them. No one is forcing them to be separated.

He's just putting on a show for a little while.
Strip them all of their tax-exempt status.
Well cited!
Obama is trying to destroy the Catholic church, and THIS is what the Bishops are worried about....
We’ve already reached the consensus that we don’t want immigration reform. These bishops just happen not to like that.
I certainly agree that fussing over these issues of prudential judgment deplete the bishops of their moral authority, so that this is a horribly tragic and idiotic move on the part of the bishops.
But it’s hardly been Dolan’s top focus. He has championed the battle against Obamacare like no other church leader in America.
Agreed.
Yes indeed. Pretty amazing given all the outcry from the Bishops over the HHS mandate. They obviously can't bring themselves to use the word "illegal" and "immigrant" in the same sentence.
Where are the similar calls for the Mexican government to promote justice and opportunity at home so that the desperate poor don't feel compelled to enter the U.S. illegally? Or similar calls for changes in the way Mexico handles those who reside there illegally?
Between this and the continued coddling of CINO politicians it's pretty clear that the Bishops remain as politically tone deaf as ever.
Unfortunately, it’s not mere tone-deafness. They’re not elected; they’re not running for re-election. They know very plainly that not only do their “constituents” oppose their position, but that the more faithful their constituents are, the more likely they are to be in opposition.
“Passage of immigration reform is more important now than ever,”
Nah, why bother, they won’t need an amnesty law, they’ll just do it it like this....
Today....

We already did the same with Haitians, Central Americans from a flood, and just watch, Mexicans and all points south are going to get it on a’humanitarian’ basis because their home is a hell hole. With Hezbollah having a foot hold down there, Mexicans will likely be the least of our problems, other than the fact that Mexicans will LARGELY side with any enemy, they do that all the time at the UN.
