Archbishop Broglio provided an analysis, which far surpasses that of the American Family Association. In his June 1 statement, Archbishop Broglio cited #s 2357, 2358, & 2359 of the Catechism: "The Archdiocese for the Military Services—the only jurisdiction charged with the pastoral care of all Catholics in the military, VA Administration, and at the service of the Federal Government outside of the boundaries of the United States, which is also charged with endorsing Roman Catholic priests urges the Congress not to repeal the current policy for the Armed Forces."
Little has been said about the impact of this policy change on religious liberty. In an October 22nd interview, Archbishop Broglio spoke of an unanticipated and chilling impact on the freedom to proclaim and teach the Truth: "'As Catholics,' he warned, 'we must be attentive to the protection of our freedom of religion'-- neither subordinating it to the idea of tolerance, nor trading it for the mere 'freedom of worship.' If members of the Church do not defend this freedom in the public square, he said, 'we may well lose it.'"-----Original Message-----

URGENT: Stop the power abuse - ramming repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" down America's throat Trying to force-feed bad policy against the will of the people...again! Vote could come as early as today!December 14, 2010
Dear Friend,
We urged you just two weeks ago to call your senators and representative and urge them to oppose the effort to repeal the law that prohibits open homosexuals from serving in the military, the law commonly known as "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
Thanks to your phone calls, the repeal effort failed in the Senate on December 9.
But liberal Senators Harry Reid, Joe Lieberman, Susan Collins and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are dead set on ramming through a bill at the 11th hour that will allow open homosexuals into the armed services, which will do severe damage to readiness, recruitment and retention.
If pro-homosexual lawmakers are successful, our military will change forever and our national security will be compromised. The stakes are as high as they can be.
Some Senators who voted against repeal last week are faltering in the face of political arm twisting. One of them may be yours!
TAKE ACTION
It is urgent that you call your two senators and representative immediately and urge them to vote "NO" on any effort to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
Get the phone numbers for your two senators and representative here.
