Cardinal Dolan should condemn the Al Smith Foundation as a pro-abortion organization, and refuse to accept any of its blood-money.

Hi Father.
Few things are harder to understand as a trying-to-be-faithful Catholic than the Church's reluctance to publicly separate itself from these Pro Abort nominally Catholic politicians.

As a Catholic, I am conflicted by this event. Is taking blood money acceptable to my Church? Many Catholics who are pro-life find it confusing that many other Catholics are pro-choice. Catholic politicians, e.g. Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, Joe Biden and the late Ted Kennedy, all embraced abortion as a women’s right to choose. Then, we have HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, another Catholic, out there ready to enforce Obamacare, whereby the administration overrules Catholic teaching. It’s no wonder 0Bamma scored the majority of Catholic votes in ‘08. Still, as a pro-life Catholic (i.e., following the teachings of the Church), I am very confused by my own Church’s behavior...
