Why Report? Just Make It Up…
The Health Care Bill Passes. Blah. Blah. Blah. Historic vote. Blah. Blah. Blah. Catholic Church signs off on it…what?????
By allowing a vote on the amendment by Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) and other anti-abortion lawmakers, House leaders achieved the latter goal: The Catholic church signed off on the late-night deal and issued a letter early Saturday saying it provide a critical endorsement of the health care package if the amendment is adopted.
Did the POPE sign off on it? Perhaps maybe all the Cardinals in a special, Health-Care Conclave? Someone at the Roman Curia? A Swiss Guard, perhaps? Or was it just a staff member or spokesperson for the USCCB? You mean that same USCCB that has no real juridical authority in the United States according to Church Law? That same USCCB that has more staff working for it than the Vatican? Oh yes. Well, certainly, you’re right. The Catholic Church then DID sign off on the bill and sent Nancy Pelosi a nice collection of Keep-Christ-in-Christmas cards care of the Knights of Columbus.

$1.2 Trillion?
Son of a…..
…bitch.
Did the Catholic Church sign off on health care, no. Does removing some of the more offensive abortion provisions make helping this health care proposal pass the house a good thing? No it does not. The reporter completely misses the story with her own biases. Still there is this quote too.
