Abortion and Free Speech

How about a word of congratulations to the Notre Dame students who are prayerfully protesting the university's decision to give Barack Obama an honorary degree while he gives the commencement speech this weekend. Although they are a tiny minority of the graduating class of over 1800 students, they are taking seriously the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church about the sanctity of human life.

Unfortunately, professional protesters like Randall Terry have muscled their way into the festivities, and vow to stop Obama from speaking. That is fascistic. It is okay for Mr. Terry to speak, but not Mr. Obama? I don't think so.

Why in the world are you congratulating fanatical women haters whose mentality is disturbingly similar to that of the Taliban?

libholm,
The students I saw interviewed on Greta VanSustern's program were male and female, but beautiful people who are doing this because they believe all human life is sacred. As I wrote in my post, fascism is not a good thing, whether it is on the left or the right.
