George Weigel (Catholic social activist and biographer of Pope John Paul II) writes a very serious essay for Newsweek regarding the recent statements regarding life and abortion from Barack Obama and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

You can see video of the Meet the Press segment with Pelosi being interviewed by Tom Brokaw HERE. All I can say is wow, what a terrible response to a very serious question. She had to have seen this question coming. How can you be a politician for so long and not have a strong abortion canned statement regardless of your position? Speaker of the House, eh? She couldn't have been more clueless about Catholic doctrine. At least Brokaw stepped in once.
Pelosi's "And this is like maybe 50 years or something like that," statement regarding the Catholic Church's firm stance of the beginning of life is cringe-worthy.
The whole Meet the Press transcript can be found here.
You can't know how or why
