See and read what Archbishop Burke said on the matter, Friday May 8, 2009. His position is essentially the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court for the entire Church. He clearly condemned all attacks on innocent life and the invitation by ND. http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2009/may/09050819.html
The L'Osservatore Romano is not the official Vatican newspaper, but it is the semi-official newspaper of the Vatican. It has non-Catholic contributors writing front page commentaries, like the non-Catholic feminist Eugenia Roccella. Their commentaries aren't bound to Vatican issues, but also international news and topics outside of Catholic boundaries.
We know the position of the Catholic Church and The Pope - and the abortion issue isn't up for debate. This moral stand has been the Catholic Church's position for centuries, but hey, the article gets people believing that Obama is even winning over the Pope, too!
Liberals manipulate people just like Obama does whenever he delivers a speech. It's up to us to stop and think a little, and hold them accountable.
Archbishop Burke actually IS a highest ranking representative of the Vatican, and said that inviting Obama to Notre Dam is a scandal. I wish more people would not accept the phonies.
