U.S. Senator Brownback and Commentator Dick Morris Join Catholic Church

WASHINGTON, Jun 28, 02 (CWNews.com) — Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas was received into the Catholic Church on Thursday.

Senator Brownback, who was raised on a family farm in Kansas, entered the legal profession, then was elected to the US House of Representatives in 1994. Two years later, he was elected to fill the Senate seat that became vacant when Bob Dole became Vice President.

Senator Brownback was received into the Catholic Church in a ceremony at the Catholic Information Center in Washington. His sponsor was another Republican lawmaker, Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania. The Kansas lawmaker, who had been affiliated with the Methodist Church, is married and the father of 5 children.

Dick Morris converting to Roman Catholicism is at least as believable as Hillary pronouncing that she relied on faith to get through her marriage tribulation. She may have prayed but, as usual, she avoided saying to whom. As for Morris, I hope he is a convert to the life cause, as well, or what's the point?

Thanks, I didn't know that. I don't see Morris' faith coming out when he speaks on FOX, I understand Robert Novak converted a few years ago as well.
