A lot of Catholics were anti-Bush, and by extension anti-McCain, because of the thread of pacifism which runs though much of the Church.
The war will not be an issue in 2012.
One zillion percent disagree (respectfully of course). As the Roman Catholic Clergy righteously rails against abortion, they continue to support Democratic Candidates because of spending on social programs. My Dad asked his Priest in the 1990's why he supported Clinton with his abortion stand and basically, his other position on helping the poor was better. Then in 2008 as Obama's radical view on abortion came to light, the St. Louis Diocese came out with a position for church members that said (paraphrasing) you could vote for an abortion candidate if other issues of social matters were more important to you (i.e., social programs) So there you have it, the babies get thrown under the bus by a twisted concept of the clergy's definition of Social Justice.
This is not about catholics or anyone else.
Its about people being stupid and idiotic, whetrher its jews, catholics blacks, liberal whites, etc.
