They keep focusing on the fact that all three women aren't Catholics, when in fact they were all ex-Catholics. Which gives them a lot more "right" -- if "right" comes of knowing whereof you speak -- than otherwise.
There IS anti-Catholic bigotry; it's usually promulgated by people these folk would rather think of as allies: Protestant fundamentalists.
This, however, most certainly is not anti-Catholic bigotry. And painting *women* discussing *their* right to choose bodily autonomy as "bigotry" -- especially when said women obviously are versed in Catholicism -- is vile.

I just don't get it, either. I tried to explain to my friend that her (Lutheran!) boyfriend was Christian, too, but it went over her head.

Fuck the Catholic League.
PS: Did anybody else look at the headline before clicking on the post and think of the talk show host Bill Donahue?
