Pelosi Says Her Church Has Not Denied Her Communion For Supporting Abortion Rights

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in an interview with C-SPAN's "Q and A" Sunday said that her support for abortion rights has not conflicted with her requests to receive Holy Communion in the Roman Catholic Church, as it has for other lawmakers...

Pelosi in the interview said, "I think some of it is regional. It depends on the bishop of a certain region and fortunately for me, communion has not been withheld, and I'm a regular communicant so that would be a severe blow to me if that were the case."....

Pure unadulterated public scandal and sacrilege, besides her being a national embarrassment!



And in a related LifeSiteNews article, we read:
House Speaker Pelosi Vows to Kill Defense of Marriage Act and Still Receive Communion

SAN FRANCISCO, August 5, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has vowed to join Barack Obama's new crusade to kill the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and promises to continue to fortify herself with Holy Communion from the Catholic Church for the campaign.

Pelosi told reporters at a press conference last Thursday that she plans to support Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) in his effort to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, should the American people elevate him to the presidency....

God forbid that this happen!

These people have no scruples whatsoever - they are possibly some of the finest examples of hypocrites that the world has ever witnessed.

And who are the weak and cowardly "shepherds" who support such scandal and sacrilege?
