****Nancy Pelosi Backs Anti-Abortion Democrat for Number Two Spot

http://www.lifenews.com/picdemocrat.jpgWashington, DC (LifeNews.com) – Nancy Pelosi, who is expected to become the first female Speaker of the House when Democrats take over, has backed an anti-abortion Democrat for the party’s number two leadership post. However, the endorsement has more to do with returning a favor than a change on abortion policy. In a letter made public late Sunday night, Pelosi backed Pennsylvania Rep. Jack Murtha, a longtime ally, for Majority Leader. Pelosi endorsed Murtha over current Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, a pro-abortion Maryland congressman who currently holds the number two position in the party. “Your presence in the leadership of our party would add a knowledgeable and respected voice to our Democratic team,” Pelosi wrote in her letter to Murtha. Hoyer is said by political observers to be the favorite for the post, but Pelosi backed Murtha because of his vocal stance on Iraq and his support for her position in party leadership, rather than because of his opposition to abortion. In 2001, Pelosi ran against Hoyer for the Minority Whip position and Murtha managed her campaign to persuade colleagues to support her. He supported her again when she ran for the Democratic leader post in 2002 after Minority Leader Dick Gehpardt stepped down. After Pelosi moved up to Minority Leader, Hoyer won election as Minority Whip and the two have had a tenuous working relationship ever since. Read the complete story.

What no one that thinks this was reported wrongly? For those that voted Democrat is this what you wanted to happen?
 
Seems that Murtha is more corrupt then the GOP members that quit.
 
Being a talk radio junkie I am a regular listener to famed talk show host and author, Laura Ingraham, who as most of you know is a convert to Catholicism. In discussing the ignorant and reprehensible comments of Nancy Pelosi with the Archbishop of Denver, Laura asked the question, “Where is the hammer on this issue within the Catholic Church?” meaning why does not the Church leaders (Bishops) speak with one voice and one consequence regarding the so called Catholic politicians and their followers who support, promote, and vote for pro abortion legislation and politicians who support such legislation? The Denver Archbishop said all bishops should and must speak with one voice and REFUSE COMMUNION to those who hold such views! I have read that the Holy Fathers, both John Paul II and Benedict XVI, have stated several times in the past that those who hold and practice such views, either by their legislation or their support and vote, SELF EXCOMMUNICATE themselves. That would mean that Pelosi, Kennedy, Biden, Leahy, Mikulski, Dodd, Kerry and a large number of other liberal Catholic senators, congressmen etc. find themselves in this position. I believe that a bold national statement must be made again for all the media, especially during these conventions, what the penalty is for this sin and that their is no equivocation on the consequences ! Please comment.

I 100% agree that the Bishops need to put an end to this disgrace if they do not they have failed each and every Catholic.
