Catholic leaders, such as Father Robert Drinan, a Jesuit priest and former Democratic congressman from Massachusetts, who now teaches law at Georgetown University, say Kerry should sell the extensive parts of his legislative record that follow the teachings of the church.
“Kerry is a very good Catholic,” said Drinan, who said the candidate is strong on many important Catholic issues. Drinan, who has counseled Kerry’s campaign, said the senator fought for “refugees and immigrants, and he should make that known.”
Drinan said Kerry should talk “to groups in the church that sponsor social welfare programs. Lots of Catholic leaders and Catholic followers say that we believe in his priorities rather than Bush’s priorities.”
Drinan would have enjoyed wallowing in the blood of heretics.
Wow, this was an old thread. You are absolutely correct and I should have been clearer. My comments were not meant to include naturalized US citizens or legal “immigrants” for that matter. I was referring to illegal aliens or non-immigrant guest workers.
