[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

..... consider the most distressing pas­sage in the bishop’s letter ......he describes his “ particular concern that some members of MRS staff ..... were not suffi­ciently aware of Catholic teaching” to stop the abortion.

... Apparently, employees of Catholic Charities are not familiar with Catholic teaching ........ His Excellency must be shocked, shocked! that this could pos­sibly be true.

...we are shocked, shocked!!!... I tell you.

This was petronski's comment from another thread:

Take off and nuke it [the USCCB bureaucracy] from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I wish they would dismantle the whole thing. It does nothing but protect bishops behaving badly. And it prevents the good ones (many of whom have little to do with the organization) from having as much impact because it makes them look isolated and not part of the "official" club.
