Dolan and Obama's Lies

Did Obama LIE to Cardinal-designate Timothy Dolan?

Did Obama invite Dolan to the White House and proceed to tell him LIES?

This mess is getting worse and worse for Obama and his administration.

The longer he drags it out, the more damage he's doing to his chances for reelection and his legacy.

Does Obama really want to go down in history as the president who ignored the Constitution, oppressed Catholics, and reneged on his promises to Cardinal-designate Dolan?

From CBS New York:

Cardinal-designate Timothy Dolan says President Barack Obama hasn’t kept his promise, when it comes to the new White House policy on contraception.

Sources told CBS 2′s Marcia Kramer that Archbishop Dolan feels betrayed after his meeting with the president on the issue late last year.

A Catholic group in Alabama filed the first lawsuit against the Obama administration’s new birth control regulations as the controversy got even more heated Thursday.

The president ducked questions about the contraception controversy that is bedeviling his administration. The reason may be the latest attack from Dolan, who, sources told CBS 2, feels he was stabbed in the back by the president after the two met to discuss the issue.

“He was worried about being at odds with the Church, especially when it came to health care and education and charitable outreach,” Dolan told Kramer.
Kramer: “He made promises to you that he apparently hasn’t kept?”

Dolan: “Well, yeah. I’m honest in saying I feel a bit let down.”

Sources close to Dolan told Kramer that the archbishop felt betrayed after a November meeting with President Obama to discuss the contraception issue. Sources said the president promised Dolan that he would “get most of what he wanted.”

"GET MOST OF WHAT HE WANTED"?

When it comes to morality, there isn't room for negotiating.

Apparently, Obama doesn't understand what it means to have values that are not up for compromise.

Apparently, Obama doesn't understand the First Amendment protects religious liberty.

I suppose he's willing to string out this controversy rather than backing down quickly because he wants the radical Leftist groups to believe that he was forced by people of faith to give in. He had no choice. He tried, etc.

The problem is backing down in this case means upholding the Constitution and respecting religious freedom.

A president should not be standing in opposition to one of our fundamental freedoms.

Cardinal-designate Dolan isn't the only one betrayed by Obama. Every American who cherishes the right to freely worship according to the dictates of one's conscience has been betrayed.

At this point, no matter how this all plays out, Obama is going to regret this.

In the Oval Office, President Obama refuses to answer if he stands by contraception rule. Says to reporter: "Come on guys."

With all due respect, that's very sleazy.

If he stands by it, Obama should not hesitate to answer the reporter's question.

Obama lacks character. That's evident. He's tarnishing his legacy.
