United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1109/29282.html

<...>
After hours of negotiations with a group of abortion opponents, led by Indiana Rep. Brad Ellsworth, and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Pelosi made a final painful sacrifice to pick up crucial support, allowing a vote on an amendment sponsored by Ellsworth and Michigan Rep. Bart Stupak that would bar any insurance company participating in the exchange program from covering the procedure.
<...>


The last step in our House of Representatives in passing the law was a negotiation with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Due to this, I want to stop hearing how Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, because Iran has elections too, even though decisions are vetoed by a panel of mullahs. You know, no different than we have here in the US apparently.
