The Catholic Vote

Movie by CatholicVote.com

This movie is moving in more ways than one. While it places abortion at the forefront of the list of issues to vote for, it also contains a segment showing peace demonstrators, which could serve as a loophole for those Catholics who are throwing their support on the wrong side of this election. ("See! Look, Marge, it's OK to support Obama. He's the guy for peace!")

That little peace sign can stuff a sock into the mouth of the conscience of a Catholic voter inclined to cast a ballot for Obama, the candidate who's hellbent on deregulation and permanentizing abortion. Religious Left voters will see what they want to see (as are we all so inclined), but the producers of this film didn't have to go and place that visual sticking out so conveniently for them to grasp onto like that.

As today's polling numbers bear out, the election's nothing like in the bag for McCain. Catholic voters weigh in at 20% of the national total, a key determing factor in who wins US presidential elections. With so many US Catholics wandering astray from the flock, they're not voting overwhelmingly prolife, and it's going to take more than this little viral video to get them to vote the right way.
