Sebelius Finds Pictures Of Aborted Babies To Be "A Discomfort"

Recently in Chicago NARAL held a luncheon that doubled as an Obama fundraiser.  Outside, a group of pro-lifers proclaimed the truth of NARAL's murderous nature by holding pictures of aborted babies.  Our less-than-illustrious HHS Secretary, Kathleen Sebelius gave an address.  I suppose "Sebelius was feeling so bileous" (and yes, the pun is intended).  She felt that she had to commiserate with her fellow murder-supporters and acknowledge their pain (without calling it a pang of conscience, of course).  She sniffed, "I know that some people were a bit appalled at walking through the demonstrators as you came to this lunch.  It is a discomfort when you’re coming to lunch, but think about the women who are trying to tap into the health services they desperately need who have to go through that kind of gantlet in order to access all-too-infrequent services…."


A few things for Madame Secretary to consider:

• Your little luncheon, funded at least in part by abortionists to support murder, was a blood-feast.  Most sane people find that appalling, let alone the daily murders of thousands of babies.
• The sight of the babies was probably the only truth the NARAL crowd received that afternoon.
• The truth hurts and causes discomfort only to those who insist on living in deadly fantasy-lands.  Like it or not, we will continue to proclaim that truth.

Sebelius Prohibited from Communion by Her Bishop

Kathleen Sebelius, former Kansas governor and current Secretary of HHS has always been a flagrantly pro-abortion Catholic who has used her positions to promote baby-killing. As Kansas governor, she repeatedly used her authority to shield one of the most notorious abortionists, the late George Tiller, from the law that she was sworn to uphold.

Her bishop, Archbishop Joseph Naumann, attempted to help her understand that her support of abortion was gravely sinful. After she flouted his private plea to refrain from Holy Communion, he publicly forbade her from Communion until she repents of her serious sin. In a press interview, she complains that this is painful to her, not recognizing that this is a discipline necessary not only to prevent dishonor to the Blessed Sacrament, but to prevent her from committing yet another mortal sin, that of sacrilegious Communion.

Let us join Archbishop Naumann in praying not only for Sebelius's conversion, but that of all Catholics who support abortion. While we do not doubt Sebelius's pain, we also know that if she dies in a state of mortal sin, she will endure the eternal, horrible pains of hell.

Let us also pray that more bishops will have the courage and clarity of Archbishop Naumann. We can make that an intention as we gather at St Matthew's Cathedral (see post below).
