Tobin, Bishop of Providence, has been openly correcting a very public errant member of his flock, pro-abortion Catholic Congressman Patrick Kennedy (D-RI). Here is a message from Bishop Tobin to Rep.

THE NEED FOR AN OCCASIONAL REFRESHER.... Reader C.G. emails over night: "Hooray! The House passed reform! Remind me: what's in it?" I suspect that's not an uncommon question this morning. It's tough to summarize the entire policy, but the House...
