A couple weeks ago, our parish priest took Nancy to the woodshed and I learned a little history. In my opinion well worth the read :-)
Too bad most of the bishops are too PC to say the uncomfortable.

“Unfortunately, or providentially, their hands were forced. They had to react to the public remarks made by a Catholic Politician,Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, as she publicly defended abortion on “Meet the Press” last
Sunday. She argued “over the history of the church, this is an issue of controversy.” and disingenuously sought to defend herself by twisting the teaching of the greatest theologian in the history of the Church, St.
Augustine. For the record, and summarizing the bishops’ responses: this is a load of bunk.”

The second link is by a lawyer (no less) supporting the sermon.

“It took a simple parish priest, however, to say it most eloquently. This weekend, Fr. John De Celles, an associate pastor at Old St. Mary’s Church in Alexandria, Va., delivered a homily squarely confronting Pelosi and her
thinking, but put the debate an interesting historical context.”
