“Human life is sacred.  The dignity of the human person is the foundation of a moral vision for society.  Direct attacks on innocent persons are never morally acceptable, at any stage or in any condition.  In our society, human life is especially under direct attack from abortion.

Obama supports abortion, even partial birth abortion. No Catholic at all can vote for him. Catholics MUST always vote pro-life.

I will vote pro-life, as always.

This defines the very issue I am having right now with a few liberal Catholics who refuse to see a hierarchy of values. They pose the straw-man that you have to choose between A (a child molesting, polluter and poor employer who is pro life) and B (a adopting, environmentalist who cares for his/her workers but it pro-choice). Obviously A doesn’t exist, but they use that to justify their B.

I moved from a low-religion area (WA state) to a higher-relgion area (NY) a bit over a year ago, and my experience is that it makes no difference what religion people culturally identify with. I'm surrounded by Catholic-this, and Catholic-that, but people here still treat each other like crap on the highways, are still deeply prejudiced, and are less polite and decent than the Northwesterners I left behind who didn't wear their religion on their sleeves.

They're just as willing here to vote Rat, even though they profess to be Catholic. It's just something they do because their parents and grandparents did it, more of an ethnic pride thing. We got rid of that in the NW, too, I've heard more names that the Irish call the Italians (and vice-versa) than I ever did back in WA.

This whole “Catholic vote” is a myth. You have those who go to Mass on a regular basis and those who are cafeteria CINOS, then you have Irish/Italian ethnic Catholics whose ancestors went through Ellis Island or earlier and the Latino Catholics who sneaked across the border. These groups besides maybe going to the same overall church have nothing in common.

“How will you vote?”

Against Obambi.

Too many negatives from his collectivist, Marxist worldview, his economic advisors who are living in 1978, Ziggie Brezinski his architect, George Soros, his backer and his associates from the communist left.

He and his associates are materialists and that, alone, is antithetical to Catholic theology.

The most dam**ng problem is his adherence to the secular religion of infanticide and abortion.

How will I vote? Either the Constitution Party or very, very, very reluctantly for McCain - holding my nose as Snobama-messiah is even worse than Juan McAmnesty. It’ll depend on whether Virgina is a battleground state or not. It will take an awful lot to get me to vote for McCain, as his position on amnesty for illegals alone turns me off to him. But Snobama-messiah is totally pro-abortion, and McCain/McAmnesty is at least some degree pro-life.

I wish there would be a box on the ballot called Do-Over!

“How will you vote?” Very selectively and for many offices, not at all. I’m coming to believe that heartfelt Prayer is, in the long run, the best way to strengthen the Church and in so strengthening the Church we can bring more people into the fold. I would never vote for a pro-abortion candidtate, nor do I vote for those who equivicate on the issue. But, should the evil win the day in November I’d believe the best defense is prayer.

Regarding the issue of life, on a scale of A to F, Mr. McCain is, at best, a D+ candidate.

But on a scale of A to F, regarding the issue of life, Snob-ama is a G.
