More on the Moral Right

This is a long transcript from a great interview on Now with Bill Moyers with, among others, Sister Joan Chittister, a brilliant, liberal Catholic nun. My favorite quote, a great condensation of an enormous hypocrisy that I've questioned my parents on countless times over the years:

But I do not believe that just because you're opposed to abortion that that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking. If all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed and why would I think that you don't? Because you don't want any tax money to go there. That's not pro-life. That's pro-birth.
