The Ignorant Redneck Rants

I've decided to post this on my blog. Will you do the same?Turn Your Backs! And be Fearless about it!
There is all sorts of hullabaloo about President Obama getting an honorary degree from Notre Dame. Of course, as Notre Dame is a Catholic School, and Ex Cord Ecclessia says that Catholic schools should not honor or provide forums for pro-abortion politicians and activists, it's inappropriate.
And there is opposition, on campus and off. As of today 65,000 people, mostly ND alums from what I understand (and I may be wrong about that!) have signed a petition protesting it. Bishop D'Arcy has said he will boycott the Commencement ceremony. Lots of unhappiness about this.
I have a suggestion to make: Pro-life persons who can should attend, and when Obama receives his degree, and when he speaks, stand up and TURN THEIR BACKS ON HIM--IN SILENCE!
This would show extreme disapproval of his abortion and ESCR policies. It would show disapproval of the University's action. And, it would hit him where he lives: his ego and his perception of himself as a popular and populist leader.
If you think this is a good idea, spread the word, let others know. _____________________________

Are you sure you want to rule out shoe throwing?
Thanks! If this would happen it would be a very effective way of saying "you are wrong" to both the President and the University.
Perhaps Bp. D'Arcy should not remove the moniker, Catholic, from ND just yet, if only out of respect for 65,000 folks most of whom are ND alums. Let's give that beleagered institution some time (however, not much time), but they should fire that heterodox, ersatz Catholic priest, The Rev. Richard McBrien.
I second Karen... if the shoe fits, throw it at him.
