But not to the point of risking the real enmity of the Clintons and all the other arrogant Rat politicians, Catholic and non-Catholic, who are in a position to hurt them.

You must not remember Mother Theresa and Cardinal O'Connor BOTH publicly rebuking the pro-abortion position, in the presence of the Clintons.

Yes, but Mother Theresa was not in a position of authority (except moral authority). She also wasn't in the U.S.
O'Connor did have a full set, if one may use such crude terminology about a prelate. But still, it's one thing to repeat the pro-life position or even slam the pro-abort position, even in the presence of the Clintons. It's another thing to really DO something against them.

Also, even if the O'Connor example was much stronger, he'd still be just one cardinal, not the Church as a whole, and that's what my point was about.

That is, Mother Theresa didn't live in the U.S. and therefore didn't have to "live with" the Clintons and their ilk.
