The major justification that liberal Catholics used in '08 to vote for Obama was that he could "spread wealth around". That was the moral justification that trumped the abortion issue for Catholics who were leaning that way anyhow. That 54% of Catholics did not vote "pro-choice", they voted "pro-income redistribution" and kept their head in the sand regarding abortion.
I was trying to speak to "Goat's" pocket-book Catholic point anyway.
