He said he supports a conscience clause on abortion but gave a joking response to a question about Notre Dame.

Zero is a LIAR!

“Obama may support [the Seamless Garment Network] because it elevated other issues where he has less disagreement with the Catholic Church than abortion.” Exactamundo. I know you're not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but Cardinal Bernardin was a jerk.

He's the man who voted down BAIPA four times ...

What Obama and Michelle Believe re Aborted Babies Born Alive
FR POSTED http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2253212/posts?page=6

In February 2004, US Senate candidate Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, sent a fund-raising letter with the "alarming news" that "right-wing politicians" had passed a law (prohibiting doctors from stabbing half-born babies in the neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls).

Michelle Obama called partial-birth abortion "a legitimate medical procedure. " She urged supporters to pay $150 to attend a fund-raising luncheon for her husband, who she promised would fight against "cynical ploy[s]" to stop it.

BACKGROUND Legislation was presented on the federal level and in various states called the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. It stated all live-born babies were guaranteed the same constitutional right to equal protection, whether or not they were wanted. BAIPA sailed through the U.S. Senate by unanimous vote. Even Sens. Clinton, Kennedy and Kerry agreed a mother's right to "choose" stopped at her baby's delivery. The bill also passed overwhelmingly in the House. NARAL went neutral on it. Abortion enthusiasts publicly agreed that fighting BAIPA would appear extreme. President Bush signed BAIPA into law in 2002.

But in Illinois, the state version of BAIPA repeatedly failed, thanks in large part to then-state Sen. Barack Obama. Obama worried aloud that legislation protecting live aborted babies might infringe on women's rights or abortionists' rights.

In 2003, as chairman of the next Senate committee to which BAIPA was sent, Obama stopped it from even getting a hearing, shelving it to die much like babies were still being shelved to die in Illinois hospitals and abortion clinics.

BAIPA passed in 2005.........after Obama left.

" Obama said, "So I think that there have been some who keep on anticipating the worst from us, and it's not based on anything I've said or done, but is rather just a perception somehow that we have some hard-line agenda that we're seeking to push.""

In addition to be an idiot, a heretic, and an enabler of abortionism and infanticie, he's blasphemous.

Back when there was a real Catholic vote that mattered, no politician or president would have gone out of his way to offend Catholics. It shows you how far things have declined.

Please, I beg all of you, do NOT think this man is an idiot or has a team of incompetent fools advising him. He and his shadow group of dangerous anti-American socialists are moving their agenda at warp speed. Think of what has been accomplished so far. Anyone doubt why he chose Biden rather than Hillary? Hillary would have blown the whistle, Biden is a yes man all the way. Everyone this man has appointed is in his puzzle of disaster to the America we know and love. I don't like liberals, but they at least are open enough to state what they believe, this government in the shadows is killing all of us with the media thinking they have the wink and nod to get access. Even Helen Thomas sees what's going on. My question is will the military follow him to our demise, or is there a project in the works to keep our line of defense too busy with other projects so when they are truly needed to defend our own soil, they will be too dispersed to be effective.
Call me a tin-foil hat wackjob, but I love my country. I love it enough to defend it with my heart soul and whatever I happen to have handy at the time. God Bless us all and remember what the true meaning of tomorrow is.

“The president said that that part of the Catholic tradition continues to inspire him”

Yes we know, the Marxist linked economic aspects of “social justice”.
