Does the Pope know about this??

One of the untold stories in the Obama campaign is how his background in community organizing has direct links to Catholic funding — from the Catholic Campaign for Human Development of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.

For nearly forty years, The Wanderer has followed the Catholic Campaign for Human Development’s funding of radical, left-wing political organizations, many of them carrying the brand of Saul Alinsky. The Wanderer also covered the first Call to Action conference – the months of “hearings” leading up to it, its orchestrated structure and contrived demands – and our reporters commented on the Alinskyian nature of it, not merely in its tactics but in its outcomes. In hindsight, we can see that organized dissent in the Church was a product of organized parishes, filled with Alinskyian-trained laity.

The Catholic Campaign for Human Development is responsible for that.

So follow the $$$$.

…millions of dollars of Catholic money over the last four decades going into Alinskyian community organizing. Catholics generously gave their money to the Catholic Campaign for Human Development collection because they were told it would “help the poor.”

Thanks to Michelle for the heads up.

Holy cow!!!!  The revelation of these abuses is coming from WITHIN the parishes, by the genuine Catholics in their parishes, and NOT the political collectivists that purport to represent the Church.  Now can someone alert His Holiness, please? Does Fr. Michael Pfleger, the radical pastor of the mostly African American parish of Saint Sabina in Chicago, and frequent visitor to Obama’s former congregation at Trinity UCC also subscribe to the Alinskyian networks?

This has serious ramifications for Catholics. The Alinskyian networksthat operate ecumenically and include numerous Catholic parishes. The Catholics involved in the extensive trainings these networks offer are not catechized in Catholic principles of social activism or political analysis but in Marxist analysis and praxis. Their worldview is marred by visions of class struggle and perpetual revolution. They are systematically trained to renounce moral truth in favor of consensus-based “values.”

In this sense, the nomination of Barack Obama has been a great blessing. Even the politically naïve are fascinated by the pejorative dismissal of Obama as a “community organizer” and his campaign’s rebuttal that to disrespect community organizers is to disrespect Catholic Action.

Well, this is some serious stuff here.

I don’t think he will be pleased.  I don’t think he cares one bit about Obama’s citizenship of the world one bit.  Shout out to those Catholics out there – like Pelosi, Kennedy, Biden, and Pfleger – who are voting for Obama because they don’t understand Catholic teaching.
