Vatican official accuses Obama of 'arrogance'
Breitbart.com ^ | 1-24-09 | afp

A senior Vatican official on Saturday attacked US President Barack Obama for "arrogance" for overturning a ban on state funding for family-planning groups that carry out or facilitate abortions overseas. It is "the arrogance of someone who believes they are right, in signing a decree which will open the door to abortion and thus to the destruction of human life," Archbishop Rino Fisichella was quoted as saying by the Corriere della Sera daily.

Hooray!!! Obama picked a fight with the Catholics.

There is so much fresh material for the "Obama is so Stupid..." thread tomorrow. It just keeps getting better and better.

What is it with the Democrats running all these morons for office? I mean, Carter, Clinton and now Obama.

They seriously don’t like themselves.

Kitty, I noticed all those you named actually won the presidency. That sort of makes you wonder who are the true morons, huh?

This reminds me of a song by the old punk rock band The Dead Kennedy’s. California Uber Alles, was a song about old Governor Moonbeam, Jerry Brown. Here are the lyrics. See anything that looks familiar? These guys were on top of politics. Hope Obama’s secret police don’t come knocking on my door.

“California Uber Alles”

I am Governor Jerry Brown
My aura smiles
And never frowns
Soon I will be president...

Carter Power will soon go away
I will be Fuhrer one day
I will command all of you
Your kids will meditate in school
Your kids will meditate in school!

[Chorus:]
California Uber Alles
California Uber Alles
Uber Alles California
Uber Alles California

Zen fascists will control you
100% natural
You will jog for the master race
And always wear the happy face

Close your eyes, can’t happen here
Big Bro’ on white horse is near
The hippies won’t come back you say
Mellow out or you will pay
Mellow out or you will pay!

[Chorus]

Now it is 1984
Knock-knock at your front door
It’s the suede/denim secret police
They have come for your uncool niece

Come quietly to the camp
You’d look nice as a drawstring lamp
Don’t you worry, it’s only a shower
For your clothes here’s a pretty flower.

DIE on organic poison gas
Serpent’s egg’s already hatched
You will croak, you little clown
When you mess with President Brown
When you mess with President Brown

0bama doesn’t give a rats behind about the Catholics.

He’s a pinko—he wants to be the religion.

It’s a fitting song that I have always liked, but Jello Biafra is a leftist TOOL.

Would be a very interesting day indeed if the Vatican was to declare a holy war against Obama.

Well it has been a long time since I paid attention to them. 20 years probably. Makes sense that something they railed against when they were young, suddenly they embrace. I wonder if we could get them to sing the song still, or if he would feel like a hypocrite.

obama knew that what he was signing was wrong - that’s why he didn’t tell the American people he represents, until afterwards, and why he didn’t let the press in for the signing - like a little kid trying to sneak a cookie while mom’s in the loo.
