* In 1995 the U.S. House voted (288-139) to ban partial-birth abortion: This is a Nazi-like procedure whereby a baby is delivered feet first all the way up to his neck. With the head almost protruding from the vaginal opening, an abortionist punctures the back of the baby’s skull with pliers and removes the baby’s brains. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, a liberal Democrat from New York (now retired) who backs contraception and abortion, has called the partial-birth abortion “procedure” close to “infanticide.” He does not support it. Nonetheless, in that House vote on Nov. 1, 1995, at least 26 “Catholic” representatives voted in favor of partial-birth abortion. They were:

Rep. Ed Pastor (D
Rep. John Baldacci (D
Rep. Anna Eshoo (D
Rep. Joseph Kennedy (D
Rep. Tom Miller (D
Rep. Edward Markey (D
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D
Rep. Marty Meehan (D
Rep. Pat Schroeder (D
Rep. Bill Luther (D
Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D
Rep. Bruce Vento (D
Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D
Rep. William Clay (D
Rep. Lane Evans (D
Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D
Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D
Rep. Robert Menendez (D
Rep. Peter Viclosly (D
Rep. Frank Pallone (D
Rep. Sherwood Boehlert (R
Rep. Rick Defazio (D
Rep. Maurice Hinchey (D
Rep. William Coyne (D
Rep. Charles Rangel (D
Rep. Charles Gonzalez (D
Rep. Jose Serrano (D

Then, on Dec. 7, 1995, the U.S. Senate voted (54-44) to ban partial-birth abortions. At least eight “Catholic” senators voted against the ban and, thus, in favor of partial-birth abortions. They were:

Sen. Thomas Daschle (D-SD), now Senate Majority Leader
Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.)
Sen. Thomas Harkin (D-Iowa)
Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.)
Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.)
Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.)
Sen. Barbara Milkulski (D-Md.)
Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.)

The following Catholic senators also have voted in favor of partial-birth abortion:

Sen. Richard Durbin (D-Ill.)
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Me.)
Sen. Carol Moseley-Braun (D-Ill.)—retired

Based on their votes—and their long-standing public support for abortion and “family planning”—the Catholic congressmen above are objectively guilty of a “moral evil” and have been, objectively, excommunicated from the Catholic Church.

Interesting list. Thanks. Part of our Catholic duty is to speak out to the community about such deeds.

SEEING this list really makes it clear how warped some ‘Catholics’ have become. It also makes it clear how much influence they have had to promote abortion in this nation.

Imagine the the GOOD they could do, if they were really living their faith....
