Until Pelosi and Kerry are refused communion I have to believe there is a powerful component of the Catholic church which supports their ideology.

Oh, it’s absolutely true that some of the old-line bishops are Democrats first and Catholics second. That includes some very high-ranking ones.

But there’s a change in the works and the new bishops are getting back to being Catholics first and shepherds of their flocks. Have you been following the Bishop in Rhode Island with his direct admonishment of the youngest Kennedy politician (Patrick?) to follow the teachings of the Church; he even asked him squarely why he was an enemy of Church teaching if he claimed to be a Catholic.

I think even some of the older bishops are going to wake up when the Church starts getting silenced by Dem pro-gay laws, though. It’s not going to be fun, but sometimes that’s what it takes.
