This is a pretty poor place to be putting their theological foot down, when they are still treading VERY GINGERLY on Politicians that Prostitute their Catholic ethnicity for Votes.

No they're not. Every single bishop in this country signed a statement that tells those politicians who support abortion that they should not receive the Eucharist. They put the onus on THEM. It's THEIR souls, after all.

Some bishops will refuse the Eucharist, others won't but the message is still the same.

No, My point is Kerry specifically. A Man calling himself Catholic, who is Openly Promising to Protect Abortion, should be being Condemend just as openly...

In Effect, he is sayong"Elect me President and I will ensure your 'right' to commit infanticide.

Now, those men in the Church, had no Problem speaking out about other subjects like the War in Iraq, But an OSTENSIBLE CATHOLIC openly campaigning to PROTECT ABORTION??????

Sorry,I am not hearing it.

(And it would apply equally to a Republican (rudy)...)
