From Frank Cocozzelli's dKos diary, "Donohue's Deal on Hudson" --
On July 16, 2008 Catholics United sent the McCain campaign a a letter calling on the Arizona senator to remove the controversial Catholic Right mover and shaker Deal Hudson from the Catholics for McCain National Steering Committee. Hudson, a Catholic Right activist who was forced to resign from a similar position in President Bush's 2004 presidential campaign when The National Catholic Reporter broke a story about sexual harassment on Hudson's part while teaching at Fordham University.
So, who would be brazen enough to defend such a man from a similar firing? The Catholic League's Bill Donohue, of course.
Read the rest of Frank's diary here. One of its important conclusions:
Judging by the actions of many of the Catholic Right - and both Donohue and Hudson feature quite prominently here - it is not difficult to conclude that their real agenda is more economic than moral. Religion is used as a cloak to elect those who foster a buccaneer form of capitalism.
