So when Bp. Rip vanTobin of Rhode Island woke up and read the newspaper, he had a question.
..."As the presidential primary shifts to New England, it's sad to note that all of the major Democratic candidates are pro-abortion, supporting even partial-birth abortion," said Bishop Tobin in a Feb. 4 tweet.Umnnnhh.....Excellency.........here's a good place to start answering your own question. Read it and weep.
"Where are pro-life Democrats supposed to turn?" he said. "Or are pro-life voters not welcome in the Democratic party?"...
And welcome to the Republican Party!!
I puzzle at the bishop's line "Where are the pro-life Democrats supposed to turn?" As you suggest, this bishop has missed a little bit of recent history. A better question for him to ask is "Why are there any pro-lifers naïve enough to think there is a place for them in the Democratic Party?" A pro-life Democrat makes as much sense as a pro-Jew Nazi.
ReplyDeleteThis is not the first time Tobin has come out of a coma and pontificated. He announced he was leaving the Democrat party in 2012 because they booed God at their convention. He said it made him realize they have a problem with God.
ReplyDeleteHere's the real problem: Bishop Tobin buys the line that there are "pro-life Democrats." Nonsense. No one in a party that has called for unlimited abortion since 1972 is pro-life.
