USCCB – Quote By Cardinal George

Found this quote on blog moderated by Greg Kandra today.  What do you think?

“The common good can never be adequately incarnated in any society when those waiting to be born can be legally killed at choice.  If the Supreme Court Dred Scott decision that African Americans were other people’s property and somehow less than persons were still settled constitutional law, Mr. Obama would not be president of the United States.  Today, as was the case a hundred and fifty years ago, common ground cannot be found by destroying the common good.”  (Francis Cardinal George, President of the USCCB in the opening meeting of the bishops 10 November 08)
