Notre Dame and Georgetown have both become jokes. They are two (of very many) reasons that I have left that faith.
FOCA is a deliberate act to force the Catholic Church to close its hospitals. An all encompassing secular-progressive government cannot impose Nationalized Health Care as long as the Church continues its ministry of caring for the sick. Barack Obama goes not to Notre Dame to praise it, but to close it.
I;m sure that there will be some good earmarks for ND in the next Porkulus pkg. They will be paid in full.
How can you blame people for going where the money is?
Rest assured, that while the administration may have sold out to the Leftist academe' (the President, Fr. Jenkins, earned a degree from Berkeley, after all), there will be a strong protest on campus. The strong and faithful group of Catholic students there will be heard.
And, for all the criticism that the leadership of the University will garner (rightly so), there are few college campuses in this nation upon which 127 masses are offered each weekend.
Ha! This ought to insure that Notre Dame doesn’t make it to the Frozen Four!
