Links for 11/01/16: In this morning
MGB: Hillary is not as bad as Gerson portrays. Trump may be spot on, or he could be cynically appealing to the worst angels of his base. Either way, he is correct - although if you look at policy and the fact that Clinton picked up much of what Sanders was saying, the choice becomes easy and positive, unless you hate the poor - the only reason to vote Trump.
The link to Catholic Health does not work. The bishops need to leave issues of Obamacare implementation (last I checked, it is passed and won't be repealed) to CHA, since they have to deal with the nuts and bolts. If they want to speak about anything, it should be the desirability of single-payer, even though there can be no Hyde Amendment in such a regime. They need to pull out their copies of Fagothy's Right and Reason and remember that abortion coverage is so remote for any taxpayer that it is a non-issue in such a scheme.
Catholic politicians have such distinctions on abortion. They should explain Roe to the bishops rather than hiding behind pluralism.
