Wow! Stafford said this? I’m impressed. He was Bishop of Denver, IIRC, and not a great one. But this is certainly strong stuff.

Cardinal Stafford said Catholics must deal with the "hot, angry tears of betrayal" by beginning a new sentiment where one is "with Jesus, sick because of love."

I'm afraid it's not just the Catholics who will be dealing with the "hot, angry tears of betrayal." A lot of Americans are going to wake up to the reality that their "Messiah" lied to them, but by then it's going to be too darn late for all of us. Socialism will already have taken over.

I think this was Americas chance to”Choose Life” and America said give us Death. Like the Cardinal alluded, Catholics voted for Death.

Before Pope Benedict came to America to celebrate Mass in New York and Washington, it was revealed that as a young boy in Germany he had had a cousin with Down Syndrome. One day a Nazi doctor came and claimed his cousin for the Third Reich. Taken to be “cared for” at the “hospital” young Joseph Ratzinger never saw his cousin again: one of the host of “useless eaters” marked for extermination by that brutal regime.

My wife and I operate St. Joseph’s House, a daycare and respite care home for handicapped children. As it happened one of the children we care for, a wheelchair bound young lady, was chosen along with three other handicapped folks to carry the gifts up to the altar before the consecration at the Mass at Nationals Stadium in Washington D.C. on April 17, 2008. One of these was James, a 30ish man who works in the Officer’s Club at Andrews AFB. James has Down Syndrome. He was chosen to carry the large host which would become the Body of Christ lifted up before the assembled. As James with great ceremony advanced toward the Pope, his native enthusi­asm overcame his reserve and he started to run. Simultaneously the Holy Father leapt from his chair and walked towards James with his arms out­stretched. We have a picture of this moment which I cannot look at without tearing up. What did he see as he gazed so lovingly at James? I believe he saw his cousin. I believe he saw the face of Jesus. And I believe that his great prayer as he elevated that host on that impossibly beautiful day was “As long as you did to these the least of my brethren, you did it to Me.”

The next day April 18th, a boy was born to of all people, the Gover­nor of Alaska. They named him Trig.

That’s about how I would expect the Antichrist to be described.

I am a one-issue voter, and that issue is abortion. I cannot support anyone who is not pro-life.

However, I read a letter to the editor in my local paper and that writer proposed that God knew Obama would become president even before he was conceived. If we believe that God knows all and ordains all, what does Obama’s election mean? And does that mean that all elections are meaningless since the winner is already preordained?

These are the kind of words we need to be hearing from our American bishops. Too bad, the vast majority of them are too concerned with the politically correct niceties, rather than an all out fight for life.

The Vatican wasn't too keen on hitler either.

http://www.zenit.org/article-7143?l=english

But, in that case, it appears it was a strategy of avoidance.

What we see here is more severe. Yes, more severe than its language toward Hitler. This is a scary indication of what the Vatican sees on the horizon.

This is all well & good BUT American bishops still “congratulated” Obama for his election???

AND supposedly 54% of Catholics voted for Obama!

So I am disgusted with the American electorate; especially my fellow Catholics who voted for Obama and those who “congratulated” him...I’m sure there are those in Heaven who aren’t so pleased by his election!
