If Obama had any sense of propriety, he'd thank Notre Dame for the invite, then say that his scheduled appearance there was obviously divisive and he'd withdraw. But he's going just so that he can show those hicks who cling to their religion that he's the boss.

I think he's doing it to sow division among Catholics. We already know that the 'social justice' Catholics supported him. Maybe he thinks that by coming to Notre Dame and causing all this ruckus, he'll turn those Catholics who voted for him even MORE against faithful Catholics, and the Bishops who have denounced his being given an Honorary Degree by ND.

No, I'm not going to blame Obama for accepting this gig, the fault lies totally on the shoulders of that miserable sob Jenkins and the board of ND. The division between Catholics has been around since Vatican II. Fear of the Church breaking apart has allowed cafeteria Catholics to belittle conservative Catholics and has allowed maverick priests to push their Marxist teachings and water down Catholic doctrine. I firmly wish the Holy Father was 50 years old as a man like him is about the only one that might have a chance to turn it around.
