Please thank the Catholic church for throwing the US election to Obama {Barf alert]

It's that time, every four years, when the Catholic leadership tries to throw the US elections to the Republicans.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops called for two weeks of public protest in June and July against what it sees as growing government encroachment on religious freedom.

The protests are expected to include priests and nuns and thousands of Catholic parishioners. Some activists expect civil disobedience, which could lead to powerful images of priests and nuns being led away in hand restraints.

Can't be long now until they start cutting off communion to Democrats.

I always get a kick out of two things when the Catholic leadership tries to influence US elections on behalf of Republicans.
1. That the Catholic leadership actually acts as if it still has any moral authority whatsoever after aiding and abetting, and continuing to cover up, the decades-long serial rape of children; and
2. That it pretends to represent some huge Catholic constituency when it views don't even represent a majority of US Catholics. Meaning, if you want to do the bidding of American Catholics, watch these people protest then do the opposite of what they're asking for.

...As for the protests themselves, someone needs to counter-protest with a group of five year old boys holding signs saying "you lost your moral authority when you covered up my rape." The only way to chasten the Catholic leadership is for them to know that every single time they try to force all Americans to live under Catholic doctrine Americans will be reminded that these are the same people who to this day still protect child rapists.

I think we have a duty to ensure that they STAY worried and make more mistakes, push further to the left. I see this bloob as one that will not only alienate Christians but also CINOs and folks who like their liberty — we should get the message out that this is about Government forcing people to do something against what they want to do — it’s state control over the individual, Stalinism lite
