Sorry, they were very much stirring up self righteous indignation disguised as 'prayer'.   My point is they used pietistic posturing to foster a political point, having nothing to do with compassion.  As for "can't stand the K of C" you're totally wrong.  My wife's father achieved the position of Grand Knight several decades ago, which my entire family applauded, but he resigned in protest to the blatant attempts at political manipulation.   I also support adoption services in several states.  You might consider that the right has its own version of politically correct, and refrain from judgement when you are ignorant of the facts.
