Today (May 10, 2010), Catholic Families for America (CFA) -- one of the largest groups of lay Catholics in the United States -- announced its opposition to the nomination of Solicitor General Elena Kagan to the U.S. Supreme Court, citing "grave concerns" about her promotion of same-sex "marriage" and abortion, as well as "dangerous internationalism" that has become fashionable among leftist jurists.
To galvanize citizens' concerns -- particularly those of Catholic voters -- CFA has initiated a nationwide petition that it will forward to the Senate Judiciary Committee. The petition can be signed, according to the Christian Newswire website.
"By nominating Miss Kagan to the Supreme Court, the president continues to demonstrate a brass-knuckles, Chicago-mobster mentality toward unifying our nation," said Dr. Kevin Roberts, Executive Director of CFA.
Also with respect to President Obama's nomination of Kagan to the Supreme Court, Dr. Roberts added, "This is an affront to Catholic Church teaching, and we are, therefore, adamantly opposed to any public figure who promotes this thinking."
