Support to bar House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from receiving Holy Communion is mounting among Roman Catholic U.S. bishops who are condemning her support of abortion as a moral evil. "The church clearly teaches that abortion is a grave evil, and that public advocacy for — and support of — abortion is, objectively speaking, such a manifest grave sin," Portland Archbishop Alexander Sample said Friday on Facebook. "What Archbishop Cordileone did was actually an act of pastoral love and care for Speaker Pelosi and for all those entrusted to his pastoral care, who might have been led astray by her public support of the evil of abortion," Sample said. "That’s why what Archbishop Cordileone did was the right thing." Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has finally spoken out through a spokesperson after he was arrested in the Bay Area this Memorial Day weekend on suspicion of operating a vehicle while intoxicated — and his response has added some new wrinkles to this saga. Spokesperson Larry Kamer, in a statement to SFGATE provided Monday morning, lambasted “several” reports about Pelosi’s arrest that “included incorrect information” about the incident. One significant piece of "incorrect information," according to Kamer, is the attribution of a prior DUI arrest to Pelosi.
