I'd love to see the students get up and walk out when Obama's introduced. I would. In fact, I wish I was one of them, so I could do it.
Still praying for a change of heart but won't count on it.
Here are Randy Terry's latest action recommendations, which make a lot of sense to me. I'm just sending this out to a small list of you: I may ping this out to my "big ping list" Monday: I really think it's important.
On Wednesday, April 29, twelve of us gathered in front of the Chancellory of Bishop D'Arcy in Fort Wayne Indiana. We thanked him for what he has done by boycotting the commencement, and respectfully asked him to take his boycott of Notre Dame's commencement to its logical conclusion.
We received enormous local press coverage. I repeat: the press coverage was extensive, and more importantly, accurate.
I delivered a hand written letter to him from me, asking him for three specific things. I ask you to read one of the stories; if you agree with my three requests, I ask you to call the Bishop, and ask him for these three items.
If you agree with these three goals - hold a reparation mass; hold an alternate commencement for any seniors who want to join Bp. D'Arcy in this boycott; threaten to remove Notre Dame's name from the Official Registry of Catholic Universities - then I beg you to call Bp. D'Arcy right now. His number in Fort Wayne is: (260) 422-4611; in South Bend, (574) 234-0687
Call Bp. D'Arcy, and thank him for boycotting the Obama commencement, and ask him to: 1) Hold a reparations Mass on May 17; 2) hold an alternate commencement on May 17; and 3) to tell Notre Dame that if they do not keep Obama from speaking, he will remove their standing as a Catholic University, until they remove Fr. Jenkins for this horrific rebellion to the Church, and betrayal of the babies the Church is commanded to defend. Again, his number in Fort Wayne is: (260) 422-4611; in South Bend, (574) 234-0687
Please send this email to your friends; ask them to join this holy quest. And ask them to pray for us. Like Gideon's army we are "weary, and yet pursuing."
For Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.
Randall Terry

If you agree, call the Bishop RIGHT NOW; thank him for what he has done, and ask him for the three-fold blessing: 1) Hold a reparations Mass on May 17; 2) hold an alternate commencement on May 17; 3) to tell Notre Dame that if they allow Obama to speak, he will remove their standing as a Catholic University. Again, Bp. D'Arcy's number in Fort Wayne is: (260) 422-4611; in South Bend, (574) 234-0687. Please call right now, and ask your friends to call.
