Obama to speak on abortion at Notre Dame

This is no surprise at all, if it comes to pass. The scandal in the making is about to become about as scandalous as it can get. President Barack Obama is reportedly going to touch on the subject of abortion.

From the Washington Times:

At the center of the controversy is Mr. Obama's pro-choice position on abortion, which stands in opposition to the Catholic Church's teaching, and which some bishops and other Catholic leaders said should have disqualified Mr. Obama from being invited to address graduating students and receive an honorary degree.

Mr. Obama will be introduced by the university's president, the Rev. John I. Jenkins, who extended the invitation to Mr. Obama and has suffered harsh criticism including some calls to resign. The president is expected to speak for 20 minutes.

Mr. Obama will touch on abortion in his address, but will not dwell on it, the White House said.
