Are they publicly supporting a "right" to pedophilia? Silly twit.
You can't go to Confession and confess a sin knowing that you are going to go out and commit the same sin. I was taught that you have to be truly repentant for your sins and do everything in your power not to commit the sin again. These pseudo-Catholic politicians know this so actually their sin is worse -- they know exactly how they are going to vote again and again even while asking for forgiveness. As a Catholic you don't get to define your own definition of what a sin is (and, you all know who I'm referring to).
