From an AP story on 3/25:

Archbishop Raymond Burke, the former St. Louis prelate who now leads the Vatican supreme court, said President Barack Obama “could be an agent of death” if his support for abortion rights becomes a model for leaders in other countries.

Burke also said parishioners should press U.S. bishops to withhold Holy Communion from Roman Catholic politicians who back legalized abortion. The archbishop made the comments to anti-abortion activist Randall Terry in a videotaped interview that Terry showed Wednesday in Washington.

With encouraging words like these from such a prominent archbishop, perhaps it’s time to press Bishop Clark to withhold Communion from Joe Morelle and other anti-life Catholic politicians. Maybe Morelle would even repent and start voting to protect innocent life.

God bless Archbishop Burke for his continuing advocacy on behalf of the unborn. If all our bishops followed his lead, abortion would once again be illegal in our country, and thousands of lives would be saved.

By the way, Archbishop Burke has objected to the way his videotaped interview is being used by Randall Terry. His letter of concern can be seen here.
