Protestant is a general label.

The reality is that Protestants are more pro life, as diluted as the category is, than Catholics, and never in history has the majority of the Protestant vote gone to a pro-abortion President, the majority of Catholics have supported the pro abortion Presidential candidate many times(actually the majority of times, and that is since they became less liberal than they used to be in history)

The difference between Hispanics that are Protestant and those that are Catholic is startling in terms of pro-life support, anti-gay “marriage” and voting.

My point here is that Catholics need to stop this constant denial of the truth and get a little angry at what is going on in the Catholic churches, we need catholics to become more conservative, but how can that happen when even conservative activists keep clinging to fantasies?

Don’t Catholics ever look inward rather than always defensively striking outward at anyone that tries to lift the shades and let in some sunlight?

You don't think we don't know what's going on? That there's been a wholesale dereliction of duty of the bishops to teach their flock the truth about abortion and homosexuality? That's the culprit of the poll results you're seeing! You're not paying enough attention to the Catholic threads on here!

It's not a fantasy to point out that most of the grunt work done in the pro-life movement is done by Catholics. It's organizations like Knights of Columbus, American Life League, Human Life International, all run by Catholics, and local crisis pregnancy centers, many run by Catholics, that are getting the grassroots work done. As I said before, the ballot is only part of the process. I've been fighting in the pro-life movement for 12 years, and you can't tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about.
