Pastor Says: 'I Saw Catholics Arrested for Being Catholic at a Catholic University' -- Notre Dame
SOUTH BEND, Ind., May 15 /Christian Newswire/ -- Vision America President Pastor Rick Scarborough said he was sickened by what he saw when those protesting Obama's speech at Notre Dame were arrested on the campus. "I wept when I saw my friends arrested and taken to jail," Scarborough disclosed. "They almost broke the arm of a priest who appeared to be in his 80s, by dragging him on the ground."
[This is the way thugs, liars, and followers of Satan treat those who proclaim the truth... How long will it be before you see Americans being arrested for being True Christians and Patriots? That time draws nigh, I believe...]

Why Is Obama Going to Notre Dame? To Divide and Conquer American Catholics
Many are questioning why officials at the University of Notre Dame are inviting the most pro-abortion president in our history to receive an honorary doctorate of laws.

Doesn’t this create a scandal for the Catholic faithful as well as for the larger community of Americans who are not Catholic? Much of the fierce public debate has centered on why Notre Dame would extend such an honor. The divisions exposed by this invitation are deep and worrisome....

Krauthammer: Pelosi Is Now At War With The CIA; I Suspect They Will Destroy Her
Krauthammer also provides some overwhelming factoids regarding Pelosi's charge that the CIA lied to her:
"Her charge of the CIA lying to her is utterly implausible. Why would it lie to her and tell all the others the truth? It makes no sense at all; and it was refuted by the black and white Obama CIA memo –– not a memo out of the Prince of Darkness: Bush and Cheney; but Obama CIA –– would show that in the briefing in which she says none of this simulated drowning occurred, they had specifically told her about the Enhanced Interrogation Techniques that had been used on a prisoner, obviously, a month earlier."
