The truth is any practicing Catholic who has a PROPERLY formed conscience cannot vote for either of the these candidates. They are both pro-abort, pro-homosexual, pro embryonic stem cell research.

Now for the rest of the story - ALL 3 candidates are members of the CFR and are busy selling their souls and American sovereignty to the elites and central banks. If you people think ANY of these people have your best interest in mind - I have some beach front condos in Miami I'd like to sell you.

I wouldn't call you stupid, but I notice you are illiterate and ignorant. You can't even make a simple sentence. The Vatican is indeed a sovereign state but my point is that it has no effect on the country in which it sits. It doesn't even have the power to influece those who are in its environs. Soon it will have no effect on the world. A brave new generation is growing up, a generation of youth who will be thinking for themselves and not accepting the old dried-up religious views you hold.

Good thing God had better sense than you, and did not allow the pair of jokers you voted for, to get elected. When Hillary was Democratic frontrunner the RC didnt mind, even though she is pro-choice, but as soon as the nominee was Obama, suddenly abortion was the biggie. What sick and twisted minds! Did you know that in Italy where the RC is headquartered in the Vatican City, ABORTION HAS BEEN LEGAL SINCE 1987? And is the Church challenging the government there? NO!

[kadene2]

You are hypocrites. You knew McCain/Palin were poor leaders yet you were prepared to subject this country to another four years of negative leadership. You should be ashamed of yourselves. It's the same negativity that is now causing the GOP to implode.

I am certainly happy God had enough sense not to answer your prayers. You should try building your house first -- rid the church of molesters of little boys, and stop pointing fingers at others!

[kadene2]

You Catholics should try reading your own bibles instead of listening to the hypocrites in the pulpit. Yes everybody supported Hillary when she was front runner. Isn't she pro-choice?

stop listening to the crap you are being fed. The Vatican City in Rome is located in Italy where abortion has been legal since 1978! Didnt your parish priest tell you? And the authorities there are not challenged on the issue. So whay is the issue being challenged here?

You guys make me want to puke.

Obama can fight all he wants to get this Catholic's vote but he's not getting this Catholic's vote! This Catholic is not voting for "that one" but instead is voting for "this one" who is McCain!

Real Catholics don't support politicians that support the culture of death. Real Catholics refer to "catholics" who like to pick and choose what to believe as "cafeteria Catholics". I think some that call themselves Catholic believe they are Catholic because they were born into a family who were Catholic.
