A Man for All Seasons - 3 of 3

A Man for All Seasons – 3 of 3
In spirit of the truth – cinops be gone – Friday, January 23, 2009

Let’s get directly to Archbishop Chaput, Render Unto Caesar, and the chapter 5, “A Man for All Season.” How can one explain the judgment of Cuomo?

Cuomo concluded that the common good is best served by legalized abortion. He felt that outlawing abortion would be a greater evil. He said that even cutting off state funding for abortion would be UNJUST.

This Is not the Catholic position. Cuomo as patron saint of Catholic-in-name-only politicians is covering up for the Democratic Party. He is an enabler for the Democratic party and uses twisted Catholic thinking.

First, abortion is not mainly a religious issue but a matter of human rights – in this case, the conceived child’s right to life. Second, abortion is never a private matter. It always had social consequences because someone – the unborn child – always dies, often with mental and physical side effects for the mother. Third, the logic of the Cuomo approach breaks down in practice.

Now, let’s go to Robert Casey Sr. Pennsylvania’s governor from 1987 until 1995. He was a follower of St. Thomas More.
Casey took great pride in being a Democrat. He believed in his party throughout his life. But he also felt that Democrats could no longer honestly speak for the weak and poor if they refused to reopen their circle of compassion to include the unborn.

In his own University of Notre Dame address in 1995, Casey weighed the results of abortion on demand:

“It was sold to America, this idea, as a kind of social cure, a resolution. Instead, it has left us wounded and divided. We were promised it would broaden the circle of freedom. Instead, it has narrowed the circle of freedom. We were told the whole matter was settled and would soon pass from our minds. Twenty years later, it tears at our souls. And so, it is for me the bitterest of ironies that abortion on demand found refuge, found a home – and it pains me to say this – found a home in the National Democratic Party. My party, the party of the weak, the party of the powerless.
You see, to me, protecting the unborn child follows naturally from everything I know about my party and about my country. Nothing could be more foreign to the American experience than legalized abortion. It is inconsistent with our national character, with our national purpose, with all that we’ve done, and with everything we hope to be.”

NOW LET’S FOCUS ON CASEY SON, Robert Casey Jr. He is no chip off the old block. He is a phony pro-life Democratic Senator from Pennsylvania. He got elected with all the pro-abortion voters in Pennsylvania in 2006.

We come now to Ron Emmanuel who with Senator Schumer masterminded the 2006 elections. They got some help from CINOP Nancy Pelosi who blocked a Proposition 8 vote on marriage in Massachusetts from being on the ballot for 2008. Also certain Catholic groups who are peddlers for any CINOP.

They conspired to run so-called Democratic pro-life candidates against the pro-life Republicans in Pennsylvania and other states. And they succeeded. Rick Santorium was the outstanding Catholic pro-life Senator from Pennsylvania. Emmanuel and Schumer and others blocked to have anyone seriously oppose Robert Casey Jr. in the Democratic primary for senator. After all Casey Jr. has his father’s reputation and that got him elected for senator.

Ron Emmanuel is ruthless; and is now President Obama’s chief of staff.
