Mitt Romney today announced the support of five former U.S. Ambassadors to the Holy See. The Ambassadors wrote the following letter in support of Mitt Romney:
We the undersigned former U.S. Ambassadors to the Holy See...are united in our wholehearted support for the candidacy of Mitt Romney for the Presidency of the United States because of his commitment to and support of the values that we feel are critical in a national leader...We also know that Mitt Romney is a staunch defender of the principle that every human being should be welcomed in life and protected by law from conception to natural death.

“Please dont misunderstand. Catholics commit mortal sin when they support politicians who support abortion, same sex unions, et cetera. Willard is someone we cannot vote for.”
You are wrong about Church teaching on this. Romney may not be as pro-life as you want but, Obama is so much worse. And it is not a mortal sin to vote for the lesser of two evils. Read the Catechism, please.
So you want Obama in for another 4 years? Because he is anti-abortion perhaps?
He is the most pro-abortion president we have ever elected. And you think that Romney is worse?
Think people, please. We also have Supremes who will be retiring in the next term.
