On another note...Kerry will not be in good with these folks

Archbishop would refuse Communion to Kerry

Catholic presidential candidate's abortion stance at odds with church

Polls show Missouri voters embracing John Kerry ahead of today's primary, but if the Catholic senator wanted to receive the church's Holy Communion sacrament in St. Louis, he would be rejected.

The new archbishop of St. Louis, Raymond L. Burke, said if the Massachusetts Democrat stood in line for Communion, he would give a blessing but not serve Communion, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.

Kerry's support of abortion rights puts him at odds with the Catholic Church's teaching.

The archbishop of Kerry's Boston diocese, Sean O'Malley, has urged Catholic elected officials to voluntarily not receive Communion, but he has not banned priests from giving it.

Burke said he agreed with O'Malley, but he would take the issue a step further.

"I would have to admonish him not to present himself for Communion," he said, according to the St. Louis paper. "I might give him a blessing or something."

As WorldNetDaily reported last month, as bishop of La Crosse, Wis., Burke issued a formal decree barring any Catholic lawmaker in his diocese who favors abortion from participating in Communion.

I am a volunteer. The Kerry campaign doesn't know SI exists. And why should they? They have more important things to do. I will say though, if you do a search for positive things about Kerry you will find my posts on SI, so maybe in a very small way I am making a difference. That's a good thing for the country. People are finally catching on. Thousands of Republicans are jining the Kerry camopaign every day. You ought to join them if you're an honest person. Clearly, Bush has failed everyone but some special interests.

100,000 jobs lost in January, according to Reuters. And with 60 bilion more in deficit spending, Outrageous. Thousands of jobs flowing out to the third world and Bush has done nothng about it. His tax breaks actually encourage that sort of thing.
