Didn't I see an article stating that more Catholics went for Obama then Mccain? If thats true the bishops should confront themselves.

Yeah I’ve seen that also.

What people don’t realize that there are a LOT of people whom call themselves Catholic that don’t practice in any way shape or form.

If they polled Catholics whom attend Mass at least once a week the numbers would have been quite a bit different.

It wasn’t just Catholics that voted for him.

It’s true that the bishops are acting 35 years too late. But most of the bishops in office 35 years ago are dead. And Joseph Bernardin, the pro-abortion, homosexual, Satanist archbishop of Chicago—there, I said it!—the best friend the abortionists ever had—is dead.

If you have EVER tried to have an intelligent discussion with a “Catholic” who votes pro-abortion because the Democrat candidate is always pro-abortion, you would know that changing those people’s mind is absolutely not going to happen. That generation simply needs to die before they will stop voting pro-abortion. They have NO CLUE that their duty to Jesus Christ takes precedence over loyalty to the Democrat Party. The Catholic Church and the Democrat Party are simply two CLUBS that they were born into, and they understand their “duty” as Democrats infinitely better than they understand anything about the Catholic Church.

The bishops who are speaking up—i.e., the bishops who matter—have been fed up for years with the older, Democrat-first-Catholic-second bishops who were in office in the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. That generation grew up in Big Union, Democrat households, and were, in huge numbers, utterly corrupt.

I have watched people walk out when I was preaching—but ONLY when I preached on the duty to vote for pro-life politicians. That is one subject on which the people who just don’t “get it” are most impervious to ANY persuasion.
