For several years now, conservatives have been complaining about the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, the U.S. bishops' anti-poverty campaign, joining in coalitions with groups that also support pro-choice and pro-gay marriage causes.

Never a good idea to join forces with Holocaust deniers. But, in an interview with Barbara Walters, David Koch said that he supports gay marriage and is also pro-choice. I am hoping that the same groups that complained all these years about CCHD will either retract their complaints or lodge equally forceful complaints against those Catholic schools that are taking money from the Koch Brothers.
