Can there be any question that Catholicism is political?

This past week it was announced that the president of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops would be using a right-wing media flack for his spokesperson. A former adviser of Sarah Palin will now serve as the mouthpiece of the Catholic church in the US. The USCCB is already a far right cabal of politicians that market themselves as spiritual leaders. The use of a far right pundit only seems to confirm it even further. Given the track record of Kim Daniels it seems all but a forgone conclusion that any pretense at claiming to be honest and ethical is a deceitful ploy. I would also assume that the USCCB is preparing to interfere in public policy even more than they already do.
