St Michael Society

CNSNews is reporting that Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) is calling on President Obama to fire Harry Knox from his position on the White House Advisory Council for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. 

“Harry Knox’s repeated, intolerant statements about the Catholic Church and Catholic teachings make it totally inappropriate for him to serve on President Obama’s Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships,” Pence told CNSNews.com in an interview Friday. ”Harry Knox’s termination from the president’s Faith-Based Advisory Council is long-over due. And we would renew our call for Harry Knox to be removed from that position by the president.”

Saint Michael Society has gathered more than 9,500 petition signatures asking Harry Knox to resign.

Representative Pence and Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) are reacting to a statement made by Harry Knox that Pope Benedict XVI ”is hurting people in the name of Jesus.”  Karen Schuberg of CNSNews reports all the background information and here is a segment by Megyn Kelly with Laura Ingraham.
