God, America damned at South Bend by another South Sider

America’s chickens didn’t come home to roost on September 11, 2001, contrary to Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s “God Damn America” sermon.

Today, pro-life moral chickens will bestow an Honorary Humanities degree upon the 20-year pew-parked butt (at Wright’s Chicago South Side Church) from the Notre Dame roost.

But given President Barack Obama’s support for abortion on demand including the partial-birth variety and opposition to the Born Alive Infants Protection Act (BAIPA) requiring abortionists to afford life-saving medical care to babies that survive botched abortions, the only degree the University of Touchdown Jesus in Indiana could appropriately confer upon him would be one of the Dis-Honorable In-Humanities variety.

Those that mourn the millions of babies killed since 1972’s Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion should be thrilled at the recent poll that found a majority of Americans identifying themselves as pro-life for the first time and that so many are being jailed for Martin Luther King style civil disobedience in South Bend.

But our mourning for the dead must of necessity now include the death of moral courage at the second Catholic institute of higher learning this Spring at the behest of the current occupant of the nation’s Bully Pulpit. First Georgetown covered up the name of Jesus at Obama’s request and now the Fighting Irish surrender their pulpit without a fight. Are we witnessing a reverse post-Baptism temptation with the Church of Christ’s Vicar failing the first two tests? Will the President soon be speaking at Saint Joseph’s to receive a coat of many colors after losing one for Gipper?

The silence of the Vatican is especially deafening in the wake of such a self-inflicted public mocking of the Roman church’s signature social issue while ordinary citizens in the new Rome speaking anonymously to pollsters for the first time ever, dramatically shift to reject the pro-choice label.

But let us be clear, neither the Pope, Bishop of Indiana, nor President of the home of Knute Rockne, All-American is the exclusive voice of Christian America. Christians of all Protestant, Orthodox and Catholic persuasions have fought tirelessly against the barbaric slaughter unleashed by Roe vs. Wade to try and slow the slouching towards Gomorrah. And thanks to Roberts and Alito, if our four reading comprehension aces can last another four years, we could have the opportunity to add a fifth.

President Obama is attempting to abort (fundamentally change) the Miracle at Philadelphia, but if we will only stay strong and faithful, we can be a living enactment of our own “BAIPA” that would subsequently be known as the re-Born American Independence Poll Acts that throw out those abiders of South Siders Obama, Wright and the man Obama insists on calling “Minister” Farrakhan, that would damn America to a Godless posterity.
