First of all, there is the little matter that IUDs and the "pill" are abortifacient which will be noted when Spitzer and the legislature of the People's Demonratic Republic of New York enact new legislation requiring abortion coverage.

Second, limiting family size is not competitive in purpose with opposing abortion and opposing artificial birth control. Planned Barrenhood has much of the world bamboozled on the importance of "limiting" family size. The Catholic Church disagrees (except for NFP) and, under the First Amendment has a right to act on that disagreement.

We have had the late New York Archdiocese Auxiliary Bishop Austin Vaughan repeatedly jailed under Cuomo for abortion mill Rescues. Nothing makes our bishops more Catholic than being jailed by secular humanist tyrants/enemies of the Church and coming out of jail, as Bishop Vaughan did, saying that Mario Cuomo had better repent or he was going "straight to hell." Edward Cardinal Egan would sharply escalate his reputation by going to jail and issuing Letters from Attica. He will reach 75 soon anyway. There is in Pueblo, Colorado or in some federal prison (for praying the rosary in an Omaha abortion mill, no less), a lion of a 75-year-old priest, Fr. Norman Weslin, formerly a Colonel in the Airborne before he became a priest. Make him Cardinal/Archbishop of New York and he will go directly to jail by whatever pro-life means possible and Elliot Spitzer will resign and flee the country before he breaks Weslin. By that time New York Catholics will be marching on Albany with pitchforks, torches, coffins, shovels and a thoroughly effective and just agenda.
