text: Aw gee, Michael.  It all depends on whose ox is being gored when religion and politics attempt to  ride in the same cart.   As I said yesterday in response to another article on this subject,  if the judicial candidate was perhaps Muslim and that person had made public statements, verbally and in writing, that implied their religious beliefs and teachings were above the Constitution and rule of law,  you had better bet the GOPers and their bishop BFFs would be all over that person with even more questions...  and not very friendly accusations too.   There is nothing anti-Catholic about holding folks accountable when they seek a position of power that has real consequences in the lives of ordinary citizens.   Actually,  we need more accountability in the secular government AND in the Church,  not less.   No one, regardless of religion,  should get a free pass.
