Dear Editor: It seems more political than common sense to oppose the Keystone Pipeline. Sorry to say this in a Catholic publication, but Dennis Sadowski’s (March 7) writing promotes opposition and at the same time lauds Obama.
Nothing was brought out that possibly Obama is only concerned about his and his party’s political control of Washington. Nothing was said that this pipeline would benefit hundreds of thousands in jobs and taking care of their families. Nothing was said about the benefit of this project as opposed to only opposing it based on environmental studies that do not report the whole truth.
The New York Times, which we all know is a liberal-biased newspaper, published a study that states the pipeline will not damage the environment.
How can any Catholic support any decision this president makes based on his record of being against all that Catholics stand for? We cannot pick and choose what is good and what is not. We must look at the opposition by this president and his Democrats and see that they are dedicated to the destruction of our faith.
We cannot support a president and a party that allows our persecution with laws passed with which they want to force us to abide by their agenda. Are we not in supporting any part of their action in essence destroying ourselves by allowing a perception that we as Catholics support a president and a party that are rabid for abortion, contraception and the destruction of our Bible-based faith and our Lord’s Gospel?
