The Vatican tried to hold politicians accountable over the abortion issue - when it was fledgling. Going so far as to threaten excommunication. Obviously, that endeavor was not successful, if the current pro-choice dogma of the democrats and liberals in this country is taken into account.

The Catholic church should cut to the chase and excommunicate any Catholics that hold opinions contrary to Catholic doctrine: when they have been told those opinions are not Catholic doctrine on the subject, and the offenders persist in their heresy.
Also if you are a so-called Catholic and don't agree with the Church on its doctrine of faith and morals you should get out -you hypocrite. -tom

An empty threat is not a real threat. A good vigorous round of excommunications that would pare off about 20% or more of the Catholic Church would be an excellent exercise.
