It depends upon the issue. I know Catholics that are conservative, and others that are liberal (and some that are conservative on some issues, and liberal on others, and vice versa), and many that don't really give a fuck about politics or religion, aside from voting and going to church as a personal matter.
Christianity is divided by many sects, and there is a wide range of disagreement even within the sects.
There are many progressive Catholics, and a leftist edge to liberation theology, which is most associated with South America, but is active in the US and other countries around the world.
