Not only is Pelosi going to lose this argument with the Catholic Church, she may just get herself banned from the Sacraments until she publicly apologizes and does penance. The more she and her office step out on the ice with her comments, the thinner it gets.
For those NOT Catholic, this IS a biggie. It's not an issue for debate. And the issue coming up right NOW could very well send Democrat Catholics to vote Republican OR to abstain from voting entirely. And the Democrats cannot win without the support of their Catholic base.
Stay tuned for more from the Archbishop. And who knows, the Pope may enter the fray.

Anybody who has used or advocates using a condom knows when life begins.
THAT just became my tag-line with one word change.
Anybody who has used or advocates using a contraceptive knows when life begins.

Democrats SHOULD NOT have a Catholic base. As a Catholic, I fail to see how they reconcile their faith and politics.

How Pelosi could be stupid enough to assume she could win an argument about theology against an archbishop escapes me.
She has assured that across America, priests will bring this issue and her position on the issue, to the attention of their flocks.
Perhaps some of the flocks will also be illegals?
Ironic if Pelosi manages to convince the illegals, voting illegally as per Democrat planned for them to so do, decide to vote according to their religious beliefs.
Buh Bye, Democrats!
