Pelosi abortion dispute off-limits for Bush spokeswoman

WorldNetDaily tried to raise a question related to Pelosi-Gate at today's White House Briefing:

[WND correspondant Kinsolving]"Fox News reported yesterday that Speaker Pelosi has agreed to meet with San Francisco Catholic Archbishop Niederauer to discuss whether Pelosi, an abortion rights supporter, should take communion, with Pelosi agreeing to meet with him, but no date set. And my question: The president agrees with the archbishop on abortion, rather than the speaker, doesn't he?"

"I am absolutely not going to comment on Speaker Pelosi's meetings or the archibhsop – absolutely not going to comment, Les," said White House spokeswoman Dana Perino.

The next question is needlessly argumenative:

Kinsolving continued, "St. Thomas Aquinas, Anselm and Alphonsus Liguori, as well as Popes Innocent III and Gregory XIV, all disagreed that a human life begins at conception. Does the president believe these two holy fathers and three Catholic saints were all wrong?"

Again, Perino said she would let the record stand.

"The president's position on this is well-known," she said.

I have no idea where that follow-up came from. One does not become a holy father or a Catholic saint for having a perfect understanding of biology. And it should come as no surprise to us that, without microscopes, they didn't have access to the scientific information needed to determine that a human life begins at conception.

Seriously.
