As I was watching a few minutes of the election analysis on Fox News last week it was reported that the Catholic vote was slightly leaning for McCain. If I remember correctly, in places like Ohio and Florida, the breakdown of the Cacholic vote amongst "church-going Catholics" was about 45% for Obama and 55% for McCain. Also, it was reported that in Ohio, the breakdown for "church-going Evangelicals" was something like 30% for Obama and 70% for McCain. Think about this for a moment folks, it appears that at least in certain parts of the country the protestant churches are doing a much better job at ingraining a Catholic world view in their faithful than is the Catholic Church. As a Catholic I am somewhat ashamed at the disparity here. Just think, if the forces for good in this world could actually depend on Catholics voting like Catholics then we would likely not be facing a Barack Obama presidency. All the Catholic Church has to do is vote as well as the evangelicals and we would be presently advancing the cause for life instead of ceding ground to the cause for death.
So thank you Obama "Catholics." In case you need reminding on what you did last week, here is a list off the top of my head of the pro-death and/or anti-Catholic and/or anti-family causes you directly or indirectly advanced by casting your state and/or federal Democrat ballots:
1. Embryonic Stem Cell Research - will be advanced through the government purse as well as government regulatory policy;
2. Cloning - see above;
3. Assisted Suicide (see federal court appointments);
4. Gay marriage (see federal court appointments);
5. Abortion on demand (see Freedom of Choice Act, the Mexico City Policy, as well as federal court appointments);
6. AIDS epidemic in Africa - no more emphasis on abstinence. Nope, that backward George W. Bush had it all wrong, using condoms is a much more progressive concept;
7. Equal Pay Amendment - you working fathers and stay at home mothers think your family budget is tight now, wait until this and other social engineering policies become the law of the land. As I have stated numerous times, for every man that is hurt by feminism, there is usually a woman and child who is also hurt. Feminism has only helped a few elite women at the top, and has pretty much made life worse for the woman in the middle or at the bottom;
8. Barack Obama style federal education policy - You think this is going to be Catholic friendly? Well, you better get use to it because rest assured Barack Obama's tax, economic, and environmental policies will ensure a lot less wealth for the vast majority of us in the years to come and you won't be able to afford the CINO parochial option. You will be limited to sending your kid to an Obama state school, or until it is outlawed, homeschool;
9. Coming IRS actions against the US Catholic Church; and
10. A punitive and oppressive tax structure. Despite what the "social justice" Catholics may lead you to believe, the Catholic Church does not teach that it is unjust to cut the federal income tax, or even to eliminate the federal income tax entirely. Additionally, the Catholic Church does not teach that the only just society is one in which all citizens are dependent on the government for subsistence. Feudalism served its purpose during a particularly dark era of human history, but the Catholic Church has never held that feudalism must return in the form of the monolothic administrative state. On the contrary, how Catholic is it really that the average American family's collective federal and state tax burden is so high that most families are forced into a situation where both parents have to work. Just think, if you did not hand over almost half of every dollar you earned in various forms of government taxation, would your wife really be forced to work in order for your family to make ends meet? In turn, how much does this fact contribute to the average CINO's contraceptive mentality?
Anyway, this is just a start. I think I may just refresh this list every month or so after Obama takes office. As his agenda begins taking fold, all speculation will be put aside, and the list can then be filled with substantive reality.
