Church silent on Health Care

In the "I'm not totally surprised category" the Catholic Church is missing in action on the health care front.

Why not health care for people that can not afford it.

On paper, the church supports universal health care. On paper, the church supports a public option. On paper, the church says that ending poverty is a fundamental issue of our time. - Change.org

Hey wasn't Ted Kennedy just buried by the Catholic Church?
