MORE DEMOCRATS SUPPORT PRO-CATHOLIC LEGISLATION THAN REPUBS
http://durbin.senate.gov/~durbin/new2001/press/2004/06/2004602A39.html

I can't believe I used the term "pro-Catholic legislation." Anyway, the article written by Sen. Durbin proivdes statistics comparing Dem and Repub lawmakers records on supporting bills approved of by the United States Conference of Bishops. Looks like Mr. "Family Values" Rick Santorum, supported the lowest number of such "catholic" initiatives. HA!

3. I would suggest they change that asap. The pope is going to
deny communion to anyone who votes dem this time. I say F*** them and
tax the bastards at 125% so they have to pay some money out of the stash in Italy. It's time to declare every rightwing hate mongering Nazi loving anti Christian religious group an enemy of the people. And that's before I get mad.

most Catholics tend to vote Democratic despite the few Bishops trying to be punitive to Catholic lawmakers that support choice.
