US Catholic Bishops: No health care, we're Republican

Like their current boss and their previous one, their obsession with sex continues to trump the well-being of the living.

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has been lobbying for three decades for the federal government to provide universal health insurance, especially for the poor. Now, as President Obama tries to rally Roman Catholics and other religious voters around his proposals to do just that, a growing number of bishops are speaking out against it.

Hispanics are 31% of the uninsured. Sixty-eight percent of Hispanics are Catholics. One third of the Catholics in the US are Hispanic. Maybe it's time for Hispanics in the Church to stand up against a white, Republican Catholic hierarchy which is willing to stab them in the back over and over again.

Maybe it's also time for non-Catholic denominations to recognize a business opportunity and stand up for a Latino community that is being abandoned by its church.
