University of Notre Dame and Obama

One can imagine the angst I felt when I heard the following news. It appears that the University of Notre Dame, the "Mecca" of Catholic academics, is planning on having Pres. Obama speak at this years commencement ceremony. And to make matters worse, the University will be giving Mr. Obama an honorary Doctorate of Law degree. Tis a sad sad day fer an Irishmen. 

For those who are not quite sure why this is a problematic issue: Mr. Obama is staunchly pro-abortion, so therefore, he is in favor of allowing the murder of the most innocent members of our society.  And the Bishops of the Church have made it very clear that Catholic Institutions are to not 1. have those who are for the killing of the innocent unborn speak at public functions because any gesture in having them do so would be an "acceptance of their actions" and 2. to receive any honorary degrees for the same reason pro-abortionists are to not speak at Catholic Universities/Colleges. 

Hopefully the President of Notre Dame listens to those beckoning and pleading him to not following through with both of these actions.
