Hmm. Asking to speak at another Catholic founded school after the divisive result of the Notre Dame speech. Sounds like he is trying to divide the Catholic Church in America from Rome.

No surprise that those limp-wristed Tea-sips jumped on board to have Stroker there.
That school is a libtard indoctrination center. I’m proud and happy that neither one of my kids wanted to go to school, there.

Good for them. It’s too bad they wouldn’t say they were declining because it was the right thing to do, though.

In addition, as part of our thoughtful consideration, we had to acknowledge that the vast majority of our student body, and many faculty members, would not be present to participate in a presidential visit.
...and he just isn’t that important to the rest of us...

A very well reasoned declination, in my opinion. It’s nice to be able to offer logical and reasonable excuses in declining the overtures of a president who is, in every way and on every day, turning out to be the most unsatisfactory chief executive in modern history.

Only logistical. . .too bad. Some ‘moral backbone’/moral reasoning, could have been appreciated. If only. . .

"Good for them. Its too bad they wouldnt say they were declining because it was the right thing to do, though." Oh I am sure they were declining for the right reasons. Mainly continued monetary support by their alumni who actually care about the right to life for the unborn.

Ahhh yes, the Obama ‘finger’. . .his favorite message, it seems when it comes to Catholics - and Jews, for that matter - and Christians in general, of course; and then are just the ‘white folks’. . .

Barry had to wipe the lipstick off his behind after being "declined" so brutally.
Repulsive.
