I've never understood how Catholics can call themselves
Democrats when as a group that party is so hateful to
religious people. As a believing Catholic, I couldn't
honestly abide by my faith and support the anti-life
party as the same time. I don't know if Democrat Catholics are hypocrites or really 'fallen away' Catholics.
. . . or just stupid.

The Church is the enemy of all the single issue interest groups in the Democratic Party. Never mind its bent for collectivist economics that seems to place it on their side; its the fact it still advocates traditional moral teachings that happens to be intolerable and must be countenanced for all the Democratic Party factions to feel at home.

Practicing Catholics who are also Democrats is a group that has dramatically shrunk over the past 20 years, but it's a hard thing to give up life-long political loyalties.
