Beleaguered Senator Rick Santorum claims that, yes, he is the real Catholic in the race. A little difficult to make this case, though, given that Casey is avidly pro-life. But that doesn't stop Santorum: he accuses Casey of not being pro-life enough, through his support of the morning after pill, and his opposition to nutty far-right judges. And of course, Casey supports civil unions. Never mind that people like Cardinal McCarrick professed to have no problems with civil unions.
Shame on the National Catholic Register for publishing such trash. Why no mention of Santorum's support for Bush's Iraqi adventure that left 655,000 dead? For his support of torture, a non-negotiable issue if any? Or how about the fact that the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) listed Santorum as one of the top three corrupt senators? Is that compatible with his Catholicism, I wonder? No, this is just the same nonsense that allows outfits like Catholic Answers and the Catholic League to feign neutrality, whereas in fact that lie in bed with the Republican party. And that bed is a very comfortable one, with 600-thread sheets, oversized pillows, and a glorious duvet.
