Republicans in Congress love to make common cause with right-wing - TopicsExpress



          

Republicans in Congress love to make common cause with right-wing Catholic bishops to attack President Obama. But now the GOP is blocking a routine resolution honoring Pope Francis because they think hes too liberal and is sounding like Obama. This is something thats been done by our congress any time theres a new Pope. But of the 221 representatives who have co-sponsored the resolution recognizing Pope Francis for his inspirational statements and actions, only 19 are Republicans. So far House Speaker John Boehner is even refusing to allow a vote on the resolution, despite the fact that a large number of Congressmen are demanding one -- presumably because it would be embarrassing to publicly reveal that many Republicans only invoke Christianity when it suits their right-wing agenda. Once again, Boehner is failing to faithfully execute his job.
