Shouldn't LIFE be a single issue worth voting for? As Catholics how can we say that we are concerned about other issues equally? If we continue to fall into the belief and practice of voting for "someone who can win" haven't we given in to a pragmatism that is actually protestant? Are we winning the Pro-Life battle. I am thankful that this American Bishop is standing up for Life, but is the Republican Party actually going to do anything about this issue? I think not. We need to vote our consciences and do it as a block, only then will we demonstrate the power of our numbers. Until then the Republicans will wink at us and accept our votes while claiming that there is little that they can do about it. This is not an effective strategy for ending abortion. And while we're at it we should be honest and admit that Contraception is the parent of abortion. As long as we support contraception we will have no real conviction or moral authority with regards to abortion.
