It is sure nice to note how once in a while our Catholic public officials (Supreme Court Judges) do come through for us. How often do we complain about the times they (mostly 'Catholics' in the Congress) let us down, esecially on Life issues.

Plus always nice to keep the ire up on such pro-choice liberals as Rosie and the Washington Post:

Did Justices' Catholicism Play Part in Abortion Ruling?

Is it significant that the five Supreme Court justices who voted to uphold the federal ban on a controversial abortion procedure also happen to be the court's Roman Catholics?

It is to Tony Auth, the Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist for the Philadelphia Inquirer. He drew Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justices Antonin Scalia, Anthony M. Kennedy, Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. wearing bishop's miters, and labeled his cartoon "Church and State."

Rosie O'Donnell and Barbara Walters hashed out the issue on "The View," with O'Donnell noting that a majority of the court is Catholic and wondering about "separation of church and state." Walters counseled that "we cannot assume that they did it because they're Catholic."
