“Discernment would lead one to believe
a democrat would support the party platform.Which wholeheartedly promotes abortion.”
That is generally true, but not always. There is the late Gov Casey and even very liberal former Rep David Bonoir was always pro-life. There are exceptions, and especially if the candidate runs as pro-life Democrat, one might expect all the more that he IS pro-life. That this candidate, once elected, disappointed is not the Archbishop’s doing.
Don’t forget that the late Gov. Casey was punished by his party by not being permitted to speak at the DNC years ago, and his son, Bob Casey, learned well from this experience and is no longer pro-life. Still a Dem, though.
This is a good speech. To my knowledge, it’s the first time that a churchman has come right out and warned people about the adulation directed at this “messiah.”
