Stop making excuses, Mr Kennedy

Thanks to The Hermeneutic of Continuity for this post, quoting a letter from Bishop Tobin to Congressman Kennedy, pointing out candidly that supporting abortion is "unacceptable" and "scandalous" and that it DOES diminish his communion with the Church.

As a Catholic I am sick and tired of listening to the whining voices of supposedly Catholic politicians, who cave in on issues like abortion for the sake of votes, then bleat that they're good Catholics too, they seem to seek out liberal churchmen in order to bolster their views and attack orthodox members of the hierarchy who have the temerity to proclaim the Truth.
