Does anyone have a problem with Nancy Pelosi being ex-communicated because of her abortion issues.

It is a time to make this an issue, especially with abortion as a aspect of the healthcare bill.

Should we get a letter writing campaign to various Bishops/Archbishops/Cardinals asking them to ex-communicate Catholic politicans who support abortion?

If the momentum that the Tea Party is getting, to get the additional support of pro-life Catholics putting pressure on the magistrate to act like Bishop Tobin, in my opinion, is the something we can do as the laity.

“After Bishop Tobin ex-communicated Congressman Patrick Kennedy..”

He was formally excommunicated?

Here is a link (via the Archdiocese of Atlanta website) to Archbishop John Francis Donoghue's writing on this subject:

Worthy to Receive the Lamb: Catholics in Political Life and the Reception of Holy Communion

The other two bishops were Bishop Baker (Charleston, SC) and Bishop Jugis (Charlotte, NC)
