Bishop blesses pro-abortion group; Diocese sponsors pro-abort, pro-homosexual speaker
This photo shows San Bernardino Auxiliary Bishop Rutilio del Riego blessing a handful of men; the photo was under a headline: “Catholics Care, Catholics Vote.” The story with the headline and photo appeared in the September 2012 edition of the San Bernardino diocesan paper, the BYTE.
The photo comes from a media event jointly staged with the Diocese and two political organizations.
In the story it says “As we approach the November elections, Inland Congregations United for change and Mi Familia Vota, have made themselves available to train parish leaders to conduct non-partisan voter registration drives.”
The San Bernardino BYTE failed to tell good Catholics what the two groups are really all about.
The Inland Congregations United For Change is a leftist community organization group which is part of a larger political action group called PICO CA.
They focus on the issues of immigration, gay and lesbian rights, and education.
The killing of thousands of California unborn babies is not an issue of concern to them. (ED: Yet, Bishop Rutilio del Riego publicly blesses them? It's no wonder Catholics are confused about which candidates to vote for.)
The Mi Familia Vota organization, although they promote themselves as non-partisan, are heavily involved with the leftist labor union, SEIU, which is endorsing Obama and has a record of extreme support for abortion and Planned Parenthood.
The executive director of Mi Familia Vota is Ben Monterroso, a longtime staffer for SEIU. The SEIU actively supports the murder of unborn human beings.
