Chris Matthews: Indiana Nuns with Pence at RFRA Signing ‘Opposed to Gay Rights’ (NewsBusters)
Leave it to Chris Matthews, during Holy Week no less, to slander Catholic nuns as anti-gay bigots rather than as pious religious women interested in protecting religious liberty of all Indianans, Catholic and otherwise. The Hardball host made the charge today during the conclusion to a heated debate segment pitting Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy (D) against former RNC chairman Michael Steele on the matter of Indiana's brand-new Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Of course, this is probably not all that surprising given how, in the past, Matthews, himself a cradle Catholic, has charged that "If you're really anti-gay, you become a Catholic now."
