Joe Biden pulls rank on little priest who denied him Communion

Joe Biden is out pulling rank.

In response to a little priest in South Carolina denying him Holy Communion for advocating pro-abortion positions inconsistent with Church teaching, the former vice president and Democratic Party presidential frontrunner made it clear he didn’t deal with pipsqueaks.

Asked about the incident, Lifesite News reported Biden’s response:

“It’s not a position that I’ve found anywhere else, including from the Holy Father, who gives me Communion.”

So instead of thinking about the priest’s position and offering some kind of contemplative thought, Biden declared it was all O.K. to be advocating for abortion from his position, complete with public funding, because the pope gave him Communion. Despite the fact that even the pope is a priest and Communion is dispensed by priests with equal weight, even if a priest is tainted, Biden seems to be saying that because the pope gave him Communion instead of the priest, that proves the righteousness of his position.

In other words, he’s got connections.
