First Ladies And The Catholic Church

A reader makes an interesting point:

Reading the story that Laura Bush admits to secretly supporting both gay marriage and abortion rights, it occurs to me that she has now become persona non grata from every Catholic institution in the United States. Not just Michelle or Hillary or Nancy or Rosalynn or, especially, Betty Ford, but Laura Bush! There is now no First Lady of the United States who would be welcome to speak before an institutional Catholic audience in this country. That's something to think about.
