I'm glad Anna Quindlen is pointing out to Newsweek readers that attacks on politicians by bishops of the Catholic Church seem to be selective -- no denial of communion for death penalty support or hard-heartedness toward the poor -- but why is she so cautious in this statement?

And sanctions for Democratic candidates have far outnumbered those for Republicans, even Republicans who favor legal abortion.

"Far outnumbered"? That's an understatement. Can Quindlen name a single Republican pol who's felt the heat?
