Mark Shea lists what Obama's overreach has accomplished:
"Priests for Live Files suit against the administration.
Belmont Abbey also files suit.
Rick Warren says he will go to jail rather than knuckle under to the tyrant.
65 Orthodox bishops stand with the Catholic communion in opposing the tyrant.
Chris Mathews is frightened by the tyrant’s actions
The GOP suddenly feels it sails swell with a fresh breeze as the Obama Administration’s gratuitous act of spite against the Church hands them a fantastic, volatile issue. Is a lot of this political opportunism? Of course! But who cares? I don’t give a rip what somebody’s motivation is in opposing this act of tyranny. I care that they oppose this act of tyranny. Way to go, GOP! Welcome to the resistance!"
Bad Catholic writes:
That’s right folks. I woke up this morning and the Church was the shizz. This is first and foremost because we have been rudely placed in the position of rebellion, and of the advocation of civil disobedience. To those who understand the teachings of the Church, this rebellion is nothing new, it has just been suddenly and fantastically stuck in the public eye. (Thank you, Department of Health and Human Services.) The Church already rebels against the twin monsters Socialism and Capitalism in her teachings, and strives instead after the principles of subsidiarity, in which the human person is neither an economic tool nor a cog in the machine. The Church already calls us to rebel against the culture of death, against abortion — of course — but with equal fervor against euthanasia, unjust war, the unjust use of the death penalty, suicide, terrorism, and any attacks on life.
