Is "Catholics United" a New Kind of Politics?

The Catholic Legal Theory Blog Mirrors of Justice points out that for a Catholic organizaton that supports things that will "help put an end to the partisanship and acrimony that have prevented progress on the important issues of our day" they sure use weird language if that is their goal.

Go see Catholics United: Beyond Partisanship and Acrimony? and also Obama? McCain? What's a Catholic to Do?

On their web site they proclaim:

Catholics United is a national online community of Catholics who believe strongly in our faith's call to build a society for justice and the common good.
We take seriously all our Church's social and political teachings, and refuse to water down our faith in service of partisan politics.

Hmm browsing about their web site, I suggest they might need to do some prayer and inner reflection as to if if they are truly meeting that goal

If other related news Francis Beckwith has a post that is of some interest called Obama Supports Same-Sex Marriage, and If You Disagree You're a Bigot

Perhaps Catholics United can give the Obama folks a call
