The Church is wondering why 52% of Catholics voted for live birth abortions when the Church is paying for them???

52% of Catholics voted for live birth abortions

False.

[Mrs. Don-o]

It is a falsehood to say either that 52% of American Catholic voters voted for partial birth abortion, or that the Catholic Church is paying for them.

I assume you are extrapolating from the vote for Obama, in which self-identified Catholics of all races voted in aggregate exactly like the overall U.S. vote of all races (54% Obama, 46% McCain), and white Catholics who go to Mass weekly voted exactly like white Evangelicals: 26% Obama, 74% McCain, according to a Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life analysis.

Likewise the Catholic Church is not "paying for partial birth abortions." The CCHD -- scandalously --- paid $7+ million over the last 10 years to ACORN, but ACORN doesn't do partial-birth abortions, or abortions of any kind. They do Alinsky-style organizing, which is aggravating enough, and they did what they could to gin up voters -- drunk and sober, living and dead --- for Obama, but Planned Parenthood they are not.

So your hyperbole is overheated, ill-targeted, and offensive. Why do you say such things?
