Calling A Bishop A Spade

Catholic bishops urging parishioners to vote Republican again
And I’m sorry, but all the issue they chose for their “voter scorecard letter” were issues the Rs do well on and we don’t, in their view. It’s code for voting Republican.

You don’t see the Catholic bishops taking a stand against politicians who want to decimate programs for the needy. Or against war. No, it always seems to be two issues that Democrats tend to favor, and Republicans don’t – gay rights and contraceptive rights. And I’m sorry, but it sure does feel like the Catholic leadership is in bed with the Republicans. And that only serves to push people further and further away from the Catholic church...
