Hmmm.
There’s a pretty detailed and well-reported article on the drunk driving arrest here:
I don’t know Bishop McManus’s full record as bishop of Worcester. From the Boston.com article, it looks as if he’s done at least two good things in recent years:
“McManus made news last year when Anna Maria College in Paxton, west of Worcester, rescinded a speaking invitation to Victoria Reggie Kennedy, the widow of the late US Senator Edward M. Kennedy, citing pressure from the bishop. Victoria Kennedy’s stances on abortion, gay rights, and health coverage for contraception are at odds with Catholic teaching.
“In 2007, McManus asked the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester to refuse to rent space to a conference on teen pregnancy because Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts had representatives among the many attendees.”
And he did one bad thing, as noted above: rescinded the invitation to Robert Spencer to speak on the dangers of Islam.
“....to speak on the dangers of Islam.”
.
Should that message not come from one of our congresscritters?
