"There comes a time when enough is enough and we can no longer afford to give people a reason to doubt our position as a Church," said Fr. Pavone. BY Kathleen Gilbert NEW YORK, August 6, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Fr. Frank Pavone of Priests for Life has issued a statement opposing President Obama’s appearance at a New York fundraiser dinner for Catholic charities in New York. “I’m all in favor of protocol and understand the difference between respecting the President’s policies vs. respecting his office. But there comes a time when the polite putting aside of differences for a while amounts to scandal,” said Pavone in a statement emailed to LifeSiteNews.com Monday morning. LSN confirmed the president’s appearance last week.

So no, I don’t think the invitation is appropriate at this time.” http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/fr.-pavone-opposes-obama-appearance-at-ny-catholic-charities-dinner/
