Last Rites and Wrongs

Jonah Goldberg quotes an old Buckley line.

If a liberal Catholic is dying, does he ask the priest to give him Moderate Unction?

I would also add that they would be more likely to call for Viacom instead of Viaticum, since Viacom owns CBS, Showtime, MTV, and a gay and lesbian themed network called Logo. Possibly they might want a ritual involving one of their old Tye-Dyed shirt also known as the sacrament of the dyeing.

Would a dying conservatives calling out for the old term of Viaticum or Extreme Unction be considered rite-wing?

I think in the revised liturgy it's called Irrigation of the Health-Care Disadvantaged.
