To: Mrs. Don-o

Mrs. Don-o, I think Raymond Cardinal Burke might fit the bill:

I’m not sure if he ever had the opportunity to actually refuse Communion to a pro-abort, but I am fairly certain he WOULD have.

Regards,

PS: I was rooting for him during the conclave.

Quite right, there's Raymond Burke. He technically is an "American Bishop," though right now he is a Curial Cardinal. I considered him the most papabile as well.

Too bad he can decree but he can't enforce. Where's the Inquisition when you really need it?

Yeah, I tend to think Cardinal Burke is our modern day John Fisher.
