Here is a story from the NY Times (registration req'd) that outlines how the Bush folks are putting money into the Catholic church to buy votes. Of course the article doesn't really say that, but you can read between the lines and see that they have been trying to influence the opinion of devout Catholics by using abortion, gay marriage, and embryonic research. All well and good if you believe, as the Catholic church does, that those things are wrong and constitute sins.
However, the bit in the story, that was ever so briefly mentioned, was that Mr. Bush is no saint. Are waging war and supporting the death penalty not sins? Apparantly not when a few $$ are thrown around.
I sincerely hope that come November we as Americans are smart enough to make the right decision.

My own sounding board. I will be posting random thoughts every so often. Some with be coherent and well thought out while others might make little or no sense at all. It's a public diary so to speak.
