“Now everywhere Biden campaigns, we'll have this question of whether a pro-abortion Catholic can receive communion," he told LifeNews.com.

This reality hadn't even occurred to me.

You didn’t get Joe Biden’s text this morning at 3:12AM saying he’s now Methodist?

Obama is demonstrating why he is completely unfit to be POTUS.

Picking Biden was a shockingly bad decision.

Baby killing Catholic politicians like Biden and Pelosi are the scourge of the nation, this will be a huge issue in the campaign.

There must be a strong pro-life Catholic on McCain’s short list. Anyone know which Catholic has the best shot of those floated? Giuliani?

It was already easy to oppose CINO Plagiarist Biden.

Giuliani hasn’t been Catholic for an extremely long time.

CNN still spinning themselves into the ground attempting to convince themselves this is a good pick.

Maybe Biden and Obama can do some church shopping together - they are both without a home, let’s see, Rev Wright is out, Farrakhan, probably not, Moonies - Nah, maybe the Whackos from Waco....No..something Californian, feel good, non judgmental sought of like buddhism but allowing you to eat meat and arugula and smoke crack on weekends, and infanticide is okay if you are not in the mood for raising a kid.

CNN idiots...

Interviewing Dem big shots as if they would go on record with criticisms of this selection.

The truth of the matter is that Biden’s selection will not change how Catholics vote anymore than nObama’s nomination did. No Catholic, nay, no Christian should vote for pro-abort politicians regardless of party. But many will.

Rooty would be a disaster.

Of the conservative names being floated, Bobby Jindal is Catholic and Tim Pawlenty is an Evangelical; Romney is Mormon, but I don't really consider him a conservative.

Wagglebee, do you think it would be a problem in any way that Pawlenty was Catholic but drifted away to become an evangelical?

I used to think he was our best choice but now cant make up my mind.

Rudy G. is mildly in favor of pro-abortion...

Rooty is only "mild" when compared to a militant abortionist like Obama.

“I’m pro-choice. I’m pro-gay rights,” Giuliani said. He was then asked whether he supports a ban on what critics call partial-birth abortions. “No, I have not supported that, and I don’t see my position on that changing,” he responded.
- CNN.com, “Inside Politics” Dec 2, 1999

"Ultimately I believe it's an individual right and a woman should make that choice."
- Apr 4, 2007

"Where I stand on abortion is, I oppose it. I don't like it. I hate it. I think abortion is something that, as a personal matter, I would advise somebody against.

"However, I believe in a woman's right to choose."
- Hannity & Colmes, Feb 5, 2007

"But if the ultimate choice of the woman - my daughter or any other woman - would be that in this particular circumstance [if she had] to have an abortion, I'd support that. I'd give my daughter the money for it."
- Phil Donahue Show, 1989

The RC clergy needs to read and understand this about Democrats:

NAsbU Matthew 7:23 "And then I will declare to them,
'I never knew you;
DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.'

I don't think that would be an issue at all.

I used to think he was our best choice but now cant make up my mind.

I would be fine with Pawlenty, but I think the Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal or Eric Cantor would be better.

Archbishop Raymond Burke who is an American has been appointed to a very high post in the Vatican and he is adamant about this issue, so I think we will see a lot more about this than we have in other elections.
