Buster, you call this sentence of ours "grossly hyperbolizing and broadbrushing?...."Let NCR talk about the bishops accountability and our understanding of Catholicism that we could be so sheep-like in allowing the bishops to lead us astray."

Nevertheless, the bishops' main objective, as TCPete states above was:  "Instructing the faithful that abortion is a deal-breaker..."  Your claim that the bishops offered a "laundry list of social concerns the faithful Catholic was to prayerfully consider when voting," as you so aptly put it... well, that is exactly what the U.S. bishops did...intentionally or unintentionally demoting the "laundry list" of social concerns that Jesus addressed in the Gospels to sub-issue status under anti-abortion.  

And so we repeat, "Let NCR talk about the bishops accountability and our understanding of Catholicism that we could be so sheep-like in allowing the bishops to lead us astray.  https://RiteBeyondRome.com
