To: George W. Bush
The Vatican is basically doing something long overdue and isn't too happy having to admit what a lot of the rest of us knew all along.

That's ridiculous. Remember Cairo? Remember Beijing? Remember IPPF, NOW, and "Catholics" [sic] for a "Free Choice [sic]" trying to get the Vatican thrown out of the UN? Do you think they wouldn't do that if the Vatican presence wasn't bollixing up their agenda?

Maybe you aren't old enough to recall this, but I am. Who was it who led the prolife movement in the beginning? Back in 1973 and before? *Catholics*. Who had the prescience to declare back in 1930 that the coming Protestant cave-in to the contraceptive culture was wrong (and trust me, if you don't think contraception has anything to do with abortion, you need to reread Roe v. Wade, because the Supreme Court disagrees with you)? *Catholics*, specifically Pope Pius XI. Who had the guts to reiterate that POV in 1968, at the height of the so-called "sexual revolution"? *Pope Paul VI*, sadly ignored by most of his flock.

We're the original pro-lifers. Don't waste your breath telling us about what "you knew all along". On the subject of life issues, we've done a lot more teaching than you know about.

Hopefully, they'll be aggressive in denouncing the U.N. and its full agenda.

They're not opposed to "the UN and its full agenda". They're opposed to the idea that sterile sex with anything, and the "right" to kill any offspring that might result, is some sort of human right that the UN needs to endorse or promote.
