Obama's Catholic support squad

The elected officials heading up Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama's National Catholic Advisory Council have gotten rave reviews from the National Abortion Rights Action League.The Wall Street Journal reports that of the 21 senators, congressmen, and governors listed on the Catholic council's National Leadership Committee, 17 have a 90-100 percent approval rating from the group that goes by the official name "NARAL Pro-Choice America." Senator Obama himself has a 100 percent approval rating. Susan Fani is a spokeswoman for the Catholic League, which has been calling for the dissolution of Obama's Catholic Advisory Council. "We're not surprised that he would choose these people to be on the council, but at the same time we think it's disingenuous to call it a Catholic Advisory Council when on the one non-negotiable issue they have the position that's completely contrary to Catholic Church teaching," Fani contends. She points to a recent study by Pew Research showing that abortion and same-sex "marriage" are high priority issues for religious conservatives who attend church regularly. "I think what Senator Obama and a lot of his supporters are trying to do is to equate these issues with Third World debt or the minimum wage," she suggests. "And in actuality, abortion is such a key issue that we don't think he'll be successful as this Pew study indicates – that people who truly have a heartfelt response to the abortion issue are not going to support Senator Obama in light of his 100 percent NARAL ratings," Fani points out. Fani argues that the members of Obama's Catholic Advisory Council with high ratings from NARAL should be excommunicated from the church or denied the sacraments. She also predicts that as more Catholics examine the senator's record of ardent support for abortion, they will realize he is not the centrist he is positioning himself to be.
