Kenyan cardinal hits out at Obama ("These people who have already ruined their society...")
The Tablet (UK) ^ | 3 July 2013 | The Tablet staff

Kenyan Cardinal John Njue has issued a strongly worded riposte to US President Barack Obama's call for the decriminalisation of homosexuality in Africa.

At the start of his three-nation African tour in the Senegalese capital, Dakar, on 28 June, Mr Obama said gays deserved equal rights. Homosexual acts are illegal in 38 African nations.

Speaking in Nairobi the next day, Njue, president of the Kenyan bishops' conference, said Obama, whose father was Kenyan, should forget the decriminalisation of homosexuality.

"Let him forget and forget and forget ... I think we need to act according to our own traditions and our faiths," said Njue. "Those people who have already ruined their society ... let them not become our teachers to tell us where to go."

A man of God stands for truth in a sinful world! If only there were preachers, teachers, and Christian people in AMERICA who would say the same thing!

Instead, many of us in this nation are afraid to speak out.

“...push aside their GIVE ME the stuff attitude.”

My very devout, very black West African buddy helped a VERY difficult black American customer at work today. The drama went on and on and when it was finally over he came back, sat down and whispered to me, “We sold those people.”

And I was like, “Dang, dude!”

the majority are brain dead stupid

99% of the welfare people, 50+% of the Catholics, 99.9% of the union workers, most of the queer community, almost all of the illegal aliens, and the rest of the, as you say, brain dead liberals elected this idiot. And that voting block is going to grow. Sad to see the end of a once great nation.

Obama seems to want to push homosexuality on Africa.

Good luck with that.

How did our people become so irresponsible in electing such a person.

Twice!

Never underestimate the power of a pervertocracy.
Hedonism is effortless.

Ah sure now you're too harsh on the American Cardinals and Archbishops.

Granted the African fellow is a fine broth of a Roman Church Boyo, but is he a registered Democrat? Can he play golf? Does he have a repertoire of 300 "Pat and Mike" jokes ready for the next Interfaith or K of C Communion Breakfast?

Bull in a China Shop is the fellow, I'd be fearin'. Might excommunicate a fine Catholic boy like Andy Cuomo, or Nancy Darlin', or Joe Biden up at the communion rail, faces scrubbed and eyes aglow.

Imagine would you, this doughty fellow castigatin' our POTUS on the gay thing! Doesn't the poor boy know? Does he think Reggie Love is the POTUS' valet?

Your excellency, please. Here in Amerikey, our Roman Catholic hierarchical fellows go along to get along! One more thing, if you do visit, don't get trapped between Dolan and Christie, they might eat you!

That voting block is only going to grow IF freakin amnesty is pushed through, which is the main reason the libs/dems/commies want it.

The numbers you cite are not that large per say. Union membership has fallen across the country, the gay/lesbo/freaks are no more than 3% of the population, the welfare layabouts have always been around and the Christian vote suffered due to Romney. All indications show to this day that the majority of this country is center/right.

Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the oil, and all we ever hear thanks to the pathetic media, is the loons on the left.

We are far greater in numbers, far more intelligent, and I believe, we WILL overcome this national nightmare. But, that’s just me.

It’s not going to happen because it’s not a natural act.

It was massive coordinated criminal election fraud.

The commie-run public schools and infiltrated colleges are killing our children’s brains, thus a “brain-dead stupid” population, easily manipulated, easily offended, easily inflamed, and easily bought off with o’bamafo’ and food stamps.

May God save our country, for the dimocrats will not.

Let us not forget that homosexual “marriage” is not about equal rights anyway. The gays in America had equal rights prior to the states starting to contort their marriage laws.

When unmarried men regardless of sexual orientation can marry unmarried women regardless of theirs, and men cannot “marry” men, and women cannot “marry women”, — that is equal rights.
