But..Are the Bishops a day late and a dollar short? That is the question.

Many are more than a day late, but here is an opportunity for them to make amends. I know I'm too hopeful, but it's (past) time for our bishops to publicly call out pro-choice/pro-abortion politicians who call themselves Catholics.

IMHO, the threat of excommunication must be employed. Patrick Kennedy would be a good start.

Well the thing about Excommunication is that it is totally secret. And the steps are serious. (Since it is not a inconsequencial move,may drive sinner further from G-D)

Three abortion types were excommunicate in my former town. The idiots went PUBLIC, can you believe that!!!!
The Bishop when asked, said the Church does NOT comment of this matter.
Hopefully these Bishops have ALREADY sent the offenders THE LETTER.
