Irony alert
The press reports that lobbying by Roman Catholic bishops is widely credited with having pushed through an amendment to the health care bill in the House, making sure there is no possibility that taxpayers money will be used to pay for abortions. Meanwhile, the Roman Catholic church continues to be indirectly subsidized by those very same taxpayers, thanks to the tax-exemption granted to the church.
Tax the churches! (and, if you have a chance and haven't seen it, make sure to see Foul Play, one of my favorite movies.)
