Obama Doesn’t Even Respond to Catholic Bishop Cardinal Dolan’s Request To Do Prayer At DNC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

  1. \n

    Why do professing Catholics vote for Obama? He has done nothing but disrespect them and their religious dogma concerning when life begins and the wanton murder of the unborn.\u00a0 He will not back down from his position in ObamaTAXCare forcing Catholic religious institutions to pay for abortions (murder) and contraception.\u00a0\u00a0 Obama squirreled around it, but the bottom line is his second dictatorial option extracts EXACTLY the same requirement as his first impossible option. First Obama dictated that Catholics would have to pay for both abortions\/murder and contraception, then trying looking like a sly good guy he said, no they didn’t, but that their insurance providers would have to.\u00a0 Now anyone with half a brain can figure out if an organization has to buy insurance from someone who MUST abide by OBAMA DICTATES to pay for murdering the unborn and contraception, it will be more expensive for the purchaser than if that were not a requirement of the insuring company.\u00a0 How dumb and obtuse does Obama think Catholics are?
    \n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Why do Jews vote for Obama? He has done nothing but show disrespect and hatred for Israel while giving preference to the Palestinians, the Muslim Brotherhood and Arab nations generally while driving a wedge between Israeli prominent leaders and himself. Obama refused to have dinner with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu <\/strong>in the White House (left Netanyahu alone and hungry in a room all by himself while Obama feasted on his own dinner).\u00a0 Muslims cannot eat with Jews, it is forbidden.\u00a0 Kind of revealing about which religion Obama identifies with, aye?

    WASHINGTON \u2014 President Obama turned down a chance to have Timothy Cardinal Dolan deliver a prayer at the Democratic National Convention after Dolan told Democrats he would be \u201cgrateful\u201d to deliver a blessing in Charlotte.<\/p>\n

    Dolan \u2014 considered the top Catholic official in the nation, as head of the Archdiocese of New York and president of the Conference of Catholic Bishops \u2014 tipped off Democrats a few weeks ago that he had agreed to deliver the prime-time benediction at the Republican convention in Tampa next week, Dolan\u2019s spokesman Joseph Zwilling told The Post.<\/p>\n

    \u201cHe wanted to make sure that they knew that this was not a partisan act on his part and that he would be just as happy and grateful to accept an invitation from the Democrats as he would to have received one from the Republicans,\u201d said Zwilling.<\/p>\n

    \u201cHe has not been contacted by them\u201d since, he added.<\/p>\n
