Diocese Responds To Priest's Obama Voter Stand: 'Statements Didn't Reflect Church Teachings'
The day after a Greenville priest drew national attention with a directive to his parishioners who voted for Barack Obama, the Diocese of Charleston issued a statement saying criticizing the priest's stand....The statement from Monsignor Martin L. Laughlin, administrator of the Diocese Charleston, issued on Friday said, "Let me state with clarity that Father Newman's statements do not adequately reflect the Catholic Church's teachings. Any comments to the contrary are repudiated.' The statement said, "The Catechism of the Catholic Church states, 'Man has the right to act in conscience and in freedom so as personally to make moral decisions.'"
[Diocese leadership apparently lacks courage and is fearful is preaching the truth - Maybe they haven't heard the Pope? Too bad for the faithful of Greenville]

On November 5 the American people elected the most liberal candidate in the history of our country who has promised to advance abortion and same‐sex “marriage.” Sadly, his accomplishment could only be achieved with the active cooperation of millions of Catholic voters. What is particularly appalling, however, is that millions of Catholic dollars were funneled directly into liberal coffers through the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). The fraud and financial mismanagement of ACORN was exposed recently and we applaud the CCHD suspension of grants for that organization. However....

Alan Keyes Files Suit in California Superior Court to Enforce the Consitution!...Senator Barack H. Obama is a candidate for the Office of the President of the United States. However, to assume such office, Senator Obama must meet the qualifications specified for the Office of the President of the United States, which includes that he must be a "natural born" citizen.[What sort of individual hires three (or more) law firms to fight these lawsuits when all he has to do is show his Birth Certificate which would put an end to these legal actions? So much for "transparency." Prayers for Alan Keyes and his (& our) success!]
Senator Obama has failed to demonstrate that he is a "natural born" citizen. There are other legal challenges before various state and federal courts regarding aspects of lost or dual citizenship concerning Senator Obama. Those challenges, in and of themselves, demonstrate Petitioners’ argument that reasonable doubt exists as to the eligibility of the Democratic Party’s nominee for President.
