Sadly, and exactly as expected, Mr. Biden (a baptized Catholic who is increasingly rejecting the central truths of the faith )  is directing the federal Department of Justice to undermine the law .   Mr. Biden has recently claimed that he "respectfully disagrees" with those who believe that life begins at conception.  The cardinal archbishop of Washington, D.C., has reacted to that statement .
