President Obama at the National Prayer Breakfast. Catholics Won't Get Fooled Again Comments

During the last Presidential campaign many Catholics were deluded by then Senator Barack Obama. His rhetoric uses language which sounds as though he agrees with Catholics on issues such as our obligation to the poor and the needy. His administration has acted in a manner which proves the opposite. The most egregious example is his failure to hear the cry of the children in the womb. Continue Reading

    It is quiet clear that the President & his gangs go by their own sense of Justice, unfortunately not by the standards of the Christ in the faith, but to & in their own circumstances to their own benefits in the short term gains by blinding the truth of life & lives, especially of women, making one to be a frog under a coconut shell who thinks the shell is the roof of the world. Living on a floating faith having no roots or foundations in the works except broken strands picked up from the dust bins of time, projecting the whole as some sort of gold, in short making a mockery of the truth with the deceit involved called nothing else but Sorcery, projecting a la kali Gula Caesar, who fooled the people once & out to do the same again which would take Christ to correct his faults if reelected.

    So both Pelosi and Sebelius have been repeatedly corrected by their Bishops; apparently that mean little to either of them. These two, along with several others most notably VP Biden, should receive something more severe- try excommunication. They have continued in their public stances against the Church of which they claim to believe. What further proof does the Church need? Would not their excommunication send a message, not only to them but also to the rest of the Faithful? Admittedly I know little about the excommunication process or about the history of its use. But I do know that former President Bush, a Methodist as I recall, acted more like a Catholic than this bunch of hypocrites and that should be an embarrassing fact to all Catholics.

    I was never fooled by Obama and have been at a loss that so many people bought into the rhetoric of the most unqualified candidate for president-ever. And that’s just from the philosophical/political viewpoints. I knew he was pro-abortion and I knew he was big-government. But I didn’t know how anti-Catholic he was; now I do. I didn’t vote for him before and certainly won’t next time. I have been angered by his socialist policies, his disdain for the Constitution. But I am really angry with is anti-Catholic bias and will do all that I can to see he never is reelected. I am asking our Church to speak out from the pulpit and let the faithful know that a vote for Obama is a vote against our own Church! Even if a Catholic thinks Obama is doing a good job, how can you vote for someone trying to deny our Church the Freedom of Religion guaranteed by the first amendment?

    I am not Catholic, so I do not pretend to have the right to tell you to do anything; however, I strongly suggest that Nancy Pelosi be excommunicated because of her stances that in direct opposition to the Church and are extremely public: http://cnsnews.com/news/article/pelosi-vows-stand-obama-against-catholic-church-says-decision-forcing-catholics-act

    Good Bless you in this fight against evil.

    How dare the "Preacher in Chief" attempt to explain to us the Bible. He is the biggest hypocrite to ever hold the highest office in our nations history. I have no respect for this man and only pray that no Christian supports him for his 2nd term.

    The Deacon and or his headline editor needs to stop generalizing. A lot of Catholics were never fooled by this fraud to begin with.

    [in a mirage of glittering phrases]... fickle human wisdom; they spoke of progress when they were going back, of being raised, when they groveled, of arriving at man's estate, when they stopped to servility. They did not percieve the inability of all human effort to replace the law of Christ by anything equal to it, they became vain in their thoughts. Rom. 1:21.

    I was not fooled the first time. He has had a long history of pro-choice and anti-family stances.

    "intrude on private family matters"? Does that mean he is going to quit telling my kids what they should eat? let's get this straight. he is telling me my child is not wise enough to eat what he wants, but he needs sex education tought his way, and that my child can make a life and death decision all on his own? and before, didn't he say these questions are between a person her doctor and pastor? oh, change your mind about the pastor part to rally a few more votes? let's replace pastor with government.and make the pastors pay for it against their beliefs.

    Prayer? What prayer? It was Obama's self righteous speech, absent prayer, at the national prayer breakfast. A speech that was very well supported with the most widely and commonly used lines from the bible, which taken out of context, he chose to support his Marxist ways.
    Why isn't anyone talking or writing about this fact. He used these few biblical cliche' lines to paint a picture of himself a Christian.
    He talks about praying on his knees. Wow!!!..He must have googled this..under how to pray...Wait! He has young speech writers that google this for him.
    The whole speech is nothing but a poor fabrication, with a few abused biblical verses that served a purpose to defend his big government, nanny state policies.
    In other words he chose the stage of National prayer breakfast to campaign in front of whom he considers religious and prayerful.
    Frankly it is a shame that he failed to address the nation in a prayerful and a non political manner.

    To my brothers and sisters in Christ to help you discern here's a verse from the bible that is not so commonly used but still does so much to describe the difference between true followers of Jesus Christ and impostors whom pose as Christians.

    "For we are not like the many who trade on the word of God; but as out of sincerity, indeed as from God and in the presence of God, we speak in Christ." (Corinthians chapter 2, verse 17)
