U.S. Catholic bishops have launched a much-ballyhooed “Fortnight for Freedom” in protest against HHS’ birth control mandate and gay marriage, with masses at basilicas and sermons by such right-thinking prelates as Archbishop Charles Chaput of Philadelphia.
The national event is being upstaged, however, by “Nuns on the Bus,” a 14-day, nine-city bus tour by four Catholic nuns that is designed to protest steep reductions in federal food stamps, Medicaid and other programs that assist the poor.
