Democrats Take the War on Catholics to the Next Level

Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the Senior Catholic official in America, generously offered to lead a prayer at the Democratic National Convention.

The Democrats declined.

They decided that they would rather have a two hour Islamic prayer ceremony instead.

Given how heavily Catholics outnumber Muslims amidst the electorate, this is, at the very least, bad optics and worse politics. But it’s so ham-handed that it suggest Democrats are doing it out of conviction rather than political calculation.

Two thoughts:

  1. If Obama wanted to quash those “secret Muslim” rumors, this wasn’t the way to do it.
  2. The constant hostility Democrats have shown to Catholics during this Administration suggests yet again that forcing Catholics to fund abortion wasn’t a side issue for ObamaCare, but in fact the central issue. Every knee must bend.
