MSNBC’s Jansing Shocked That Pope Francis Opposes Abortion

Today marks the 41st annual “March for Life” in which thousands of pro-lifers ascend on Washington D.C. to mark the Roe v. Wade decision and show their solidarity in opposition to abortion, many of them faithful Catholics. Not surprisingly, Pope Francis sent out an official tweet showing his support for the “March for Life” in which he said, “I join the March for Life in Washington with my prayers, may God help us respect all life, especially the most vulnerable.”

Unfortunately for one MSNBC host, the fact the Pope would show support for one of the Catholic Church’s most sacred values, the protection of all innocent human life, seemed to be too much to handle. During her daily “Tweet of the Day” segment on Jansing & Co., Chris Jansing sniffed that Pope Francis’s pro-life values were “reflective of ways in which the church certainly has not changed.”

Earth to Chris Jansing: The Catholic Church is and always will be pro-life. No amount of pushing from the liberals at MSNBC will change that. Furthermore, the fact that Jansing would claim that the Pope being pro-life is indicative of how the Catholic Church “has not changed” is insulting to hundreds of millions of pro-life Catholics, other pro-life Christians, and other pro-lifers of other faiths or of no faith who draw inspiration from the pro-life witness of the papacy.

Such sentiments should be of no surprise to most individuals, as MSNBC consistently sympathizes with the abortion community. In fact, at the time of this posting, MSNBC today has failed to bring on its air a single pro-life individual to talk about the “March for Life.” Instead, the “Lean Forward” network brought on NARAL President Ilyse Hogue and NOW’s Terry O’Neill to slam pro-life activists marching in the “March for Life.”

The recent embrace of the Pope by Left/Liberals/MSNBC did kind of make me chuckle. What they were doing was so purile and transparent. They actually believed that if they praise and laud him as 'the greatest Pope ever', that they could 'claim' him and put him in their pocket.
 
In other words, they thought by raining praise and favorable publicity on him they would be able to direct and guide him and his thoughts to the forward way, their way. And, they are shocked when he espouses traditional religious values. It reminds me of the Lefty/Libs who gave Arafat a Nobel Peace Prize and then were 'shocked' when he continued to be and do what he always was and did, a terrorist. When the Left rewards someone with praise and awards, they believe they can change, shape, and influence behavior. This is how Obama got his 'Prize'.
 
The arrogance and naivete' of this is breathtaking, but it is a clear window into the way Liberals think. They think that once they 'allow' you into the "cool kids" crowd, you must obey the "cool kids" rules. And they are shocked when people tell them to take their rules and stuff them.

I quite agree, 240B. The media convinced themselves the Pope was simpatico and just like them. What a surprise he reiterated traditional church doctrine.

Good post, 240! Jannings has no idea what Christianity is. To her, it's just another political party.

That is a bit like being surprised Charles Manson doesn't support the death penalty.
