Notre Dame is showing it’s liberal hypocrisy by inviting a president that believes in the death of infants......

You gotta be kidding!

Pro-abortion politicians should not be honoured by Catholic universities regardless of the office held by such politician.

Bishop needs to grow a spine.

Now.

One can imagine the people attending the ceremony silently standing and turning their backs on Obama while he’s reading his teleprompter.

He may well speak there, but what an opportunity to bring the spotlight on his anti-life positions. I trust the Church will not remain silent in the run up to or the aftermath of the address.

Doesn’t this nit wit have some real presidential issues to watch over?!!? On second thought, maybe all colleges and high schools should book this clown and keep him away from national policies.
