Freedom of Choice Act?


‘The U.S. Catholic Church's crusade against the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) has all the hallmarks of a well-oiled lobbying campaign. A national postcard campaign is flooding the White House and congressional offices with messages opposing FOCA, and the Catholic bishops have made defeating the abortion rights legislation a top priority. In the most recent effort to stop the bill, Cardinal Justin Rigali of Philadelphia sent a letter to every member of Congress imploring them to "please oppose FOCA." ‘

There is only one hitch. Congress isn't about to pass the Freedom of Choice Act because no such bill has been introduced.

REALLY!

I remember seeing something about this in the Helena IR recently in a fundy comment.
It goes to show how the flock follows without question.
