Atrios has spent the last few days compiling a list of pro-choice Catholic Republicans that aren’t getting the same pressure that’s currently being put on John Kerry. While we’re on the subject of “bad Catholics”, it’s probably worth mentioning that the Catholic Church is against death penalty and the Iraq war as well. Unless the Republicans were able to pull some strings and get their sins downgraded from mortal to venal, maybe somebody should ask the Bishops about, among others, Sen. Rick Santorum (“that’s Latin for ‘asshole’”).
