The contrast between Cardinal Wuerl at the White House yesterday and Cardinal Tobin at this event is so striking. Cardinal Tobin chose to speak for Gospel values against the values of Donald Trump. Unfortunately, in explicitly refusing to speak out against the monstrosity of a health care bill yesterday at the White House, Cardinal Wuerl chose to promote the political needs of Trump over the demands of the Gospel. He chose the political needs of Donald Trump over the newborn infant with a preexisting heart condition whose life could be ended by the Republican legislation. The political needs of Donald Trump over the woman in a nursing home dependent on Medicaid as her body withers and the memories of a lifetime slip away. The political needs of Donald Trump over the sexual assault victim who now has a preexisting condition and may be uninsurable for the rest of her life. May we have more leaders of the Church who follow Cardinal Tobin's example and not Cardinal Wuerl's example.
