“Catholic bishops” do not appear to know very much about our country’s Constitution .

As a Catholic this is very disappointing.

Are the Catholic Bishops anti democratic?

I do not see any proper role for the Catholic bishops in running the US government. But, if they want to do that, they should run for office and face the electorate, not just sit on their seat and make comments from the peanut gallery. They were not very successful with “faith and morals” either, as I recall. Catholic bishops should tend their own flocks and be sure they are operating within the law and avoiding conspiracy to obstruct justice.

Well then perhaps the catholic bishops need to be named in a criminal complaint, inciting to criminal actions, filed along with the impeachment proceedings against obozo if he does this?But for now we can start with stripping the catholic church of it`s tax free status, given it`s advancing the political dogma of open borders, then depending on obozo`s actions, go from there.

One auxiliary bishop says something, and suddenly he speaks for the whole episcopate?

Okay, then ... every time Ted Cruz speaks, he *IS* the United States Senate speaking. So let it be written, so let it be done.

Must one serve Christ to be a Catholic Bishop these days?

Who REALLY believes Christ is advocating open immigration and adoption into a national welfare system?

When ‘giving’ becomes compulsory, at a level determined by the recipient, isn’t it ‘taking’?

The nation’s Catholic bishops are jumping into the increasingly contentious battle over immigration reform by backing President Barack Obama’s pledge to act on his own to fix what one bishop called "this broken and immoral system" before Republicans assume control of Capitol Hill in January.

In an unscheduled address Tuesday at the hierarchy’s annual meeting, Seattle Auxiliary Bishop Eusebio Elizondo, chairman of the migration committee of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, said the USCCB would continue to work with both parties to pass comprehensive immigration reform.

But, Elizondo said, given the urgency of the immigration crisis and the electoral gains by Republicans who have thwarted earlier reform efforts, "it would be derelict not to support administrative actions … which would provide immigrants and their families legal protection.

Here’s the issue as I see it. The bishops are concerned for immigrants for moral reasons. Dems want them here for the votes. Two different goals. The bishops better tread lightly working with Obama … he’s screwed them once, he’ll do it again.

But does immigration need an overhaul? No. We simply need to enforce the laws already on the books.

It sounds to me like Auxiliary Bishop Eusebio Elizondo is acting alone also.

The Catholics bishops in the U.S. have NEVER opposed any law on the grounds that it was unconstitutional. And there many they have lobbied for that WERE unconstitutional.

“Unconstitutional” is a category that simply does not exist in their minds.

And that is the reason Peter’s church is in a free-fall while other religions are gaining converts.

There they go again.. getting in tough with their inner communist. These a-holes backstabbed America, aligning with the Soviets in the 1980s, arguing for a nuke freeze.

This was one of the reasons I left my church. The Priest told us all to pray for our elected leaders so they would grant citizenship to all the ‘displaced’ people in America. The other reason was his insistence we embrace our Muslim brothers and sisters. Buh Bye.
