“The Pastoral letter that you are quoting is silent on this.”

Not at all. The letter is quite clear that all other considerations pale in the face of anti-abortionism.

“”“No, the taking of innocent human life is so heinous, so horribly evil, and so absolutely opposite to the law of Almighty God that abortion must take precedence over every other issue. I repeat. It is the single most important issue confronting not only Catholics, but the entire electorate.””

Is this simply heretical hyperbole excusable because of the the nature of abortion?

But he enumerates the issues in the scope of the letter, social policy issues all. See my 72 on this thread.
