The fact that the bishops supported a law that would increase abortions and euthanasia raises many questions.are the Bishops poorly represented legally?Do the Bishops put’other’ issues ahead of abortion and euthanasia?Have the Bishops been linked to the Democratic Party for too long? Are the Bishops right now working on a deal with Obama that will protect their financial interests to the detriment of Life issues?
We the laity must take on the most pro-abortion President in the history of this great country of ours.My wife and I have included the defeat of Obama in our daily rosary for many months.

Yes on all; whether they are working on a deal with Obama I don't know, but that deal better have a solid conscious objector protection for any Catholic, and not just for some institutions.
My point in all this is that first, the Evangelical Protestants are welcome with their conservatism, but in a majority-Protestant country they did a horrible job in 20c. seeing the moral disintegration that occurred. Second, it is not the bishops' job to formulate civil laws. If the US electorate wants to have a socialized medicine, it is not the job of the bishops to teach against that. Their job is to protect against laws that violate human conscience, not against stupid laws.

Our prayer is for the preservation of American freedom and freedom of religion in particular. Obama is a symptom, not the cause of our peril. It is obvious, I think that Romney, should he win, will be only a marginal improvement over Obama, and least of all an improvement on social issues, where it really matters. This is why it is important to defeat not just Obama, but the left-wing mentality in our neighbor.
