Look at post 12.

Protestants do not do the same as Catholics, the Protestant vote has never gone pro-abortion, in fact, it has only gone democrat 3 times, in at the very least, a hundred years.

The major justification that liberal Catholics used in '08 to vote for Obama was that he could "spread wealth around". That was the moral justification that trumped the abortion issue for Catholics who were leaning that way anyhow. That 54% of Catholics did not vote "pro-choice", they voted "pro-income redistribution" and kept their head in the sand regarding abortion.

I was trying to speak to "Goat's" pocket-book Catholic point anyway.

Two thirds of the Protestants I know, many of whom I've known for decades, stay home and don't even vote.

What they belive doesn't matter. They sit out elections because they don't think Christians should care about politics, they think the rapture is just around the corner so it doesn't matter, or they think neither candidate isn't perfect enough for them to vote for. It must not be just the folks I know, either, because if two thirds of those who claim to be Protestant Christians gave a damn enough to vote rather than whine we'd have never had King Barry in the first place.
