Links for 09/15/15 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Amy Sullivan has an interesting column, but more interesting will be getting a copy of Gary Wills' book Why Priests? Gary's studies have made him almost Protestant in his understanding of scripture. Maybe that is a good thing. I suspect that Steve was more of a foil for Gary than he wished, or maybe he planned it that way.
Camosy is correct on the paid family leave provisions, but there should also be an expanded child tax credit attached, say at least $500 per child per month. As for the GOP being the pro-life party, they have always been the pro-life opportunism party. They know the 20 week ban won't pass and they won't fight for it. Its all for show. If you really want to make people think, require 20 week abortions to include fetal pain relief. It would have more of an impact - on e baby at a time.
Iowa Evangelicals hold no overt racial animus, unlike some southern Republican voters, however my bet for both camps is still Mike Huckabee.
