Congressman Murphy Supports Kennedy


Rep. Patrick Murphy, a democrat and advocate for abortion supports Congressman Patrick Kennedy in his legislation. Murphy states, "We don't legislate at the orders of the Vatican, we legislate what is in our conscience and what we think is good for our country.” Congressman Murphy is a Catholic pro-abortion democrat who feels sorrow for Rep. Kennedy. Murphy continues to state, "It's been disheartening for millions of (Catholics) across the country to see one of our own be banished," Murphy said. "I'm reaching out to Patrick Kennedy and also to my local priests and bishops to make sure they know that we agree on 99 percent of the issues."

Being born and raised as a Catholic I question Rep Murphy’s quote when he states that they agree on “99 percent of the issue.” Catholics across the world will confirm that a true Catholic is 100 percent Catholic. Perhaps the Congressman thinks that he only needs to be 99 percent committed to being a good American. Should he be able to break one percent of the laws because he may disagree with them?
