The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

Whatever you think of abortion (and this isn't intended to be a debate on that issue whatsoever), it should be pretty clear that the Catholic church has very specifically made it clear that the official doctrine of the church is that life begins at conception and abortion is not acceptable. So how is it that Pelosi, who claims to be a practicing Catholic, can go on Meet the Press and declare that the Catholic Church doesn't know what they believe about abortion?

Biden was brought on, in part, to go after the Catholic vote. With Pelosi doing this, that would seem to have a directly negative effect on that aspect of the selection. Plus, it's just stupid. The Catholic church couldn't be more clear on their doctrine.
