Tommy Barrett pro-choice Catholic politician from Milwaukee area

From Dad29

Tommy Barrett is a member of St. Sebastian's Parish over by the Highlands, there, ain'a.

Tommy Barrett may have a problem. Oh--not with the former pastor of that church, whose total disrespect for liturgical law is well-known (and despised).

Nope. Tommy's problem is with the Archbishop of Milwaukee.

As a congressman, Barrett:

• Voted against the Child Custody Protection Act which would have made it a federal crime to take a minor across state lines to have an abortion to keep the abortion secret from her parents.
• Voted against a ban on performing abortions at military hospitals.
• Voted against the Unborn Victims of Violence Act, a federal law which allows prosecutors to charge a third party for death or injury to an unborn child.
• Voted against a ban on human cloning.
• Voted against the Mexico City Policy which prohibits the use of federal funds to promote or perform abortions overseas.
• Voted for taxpayer funding of abortions for federal employees.
• Voted against banning partial-birth abortions (2002 bill).

Oh, that's not all. As a Wisconsin leggie, Barrett:

• Voted in favor of taxpayer funding of abortion referrals.
• Voted against protecting the unborn child of a pregnant woman on life supports.
• Voted against the right-to-life position on 53 out of 55 votes

It's pretty well-known that Abp. Listecki does not suffer pro-abortion "Catholics" well at all. Let's hope that the Abp's past is prologue.
