This sounded good until the United Nations part. Anybody know about the cardinal?

This cardinal is a liberal UN type. He's the one who was "outraged" that we treated Saddaam like a "cow" when we showed him getting his gums checked a few days after we caught him.

Here's another view. Austin Ruse (stalwart pro-lifer head of C-FAM) was asked by an interviewer about Martino:

" Let me ask another question with some immediate political implications. In working at the UN, you were in close contact for several years with then-Archbishop Renato Martino, who was the Holy See's representative there until this year. Now Cardinal Martino, in his new capacity as president of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, has gained new prominence as a highly outspoken critic of US policies. What were your impressions of Cardinal Martino?

Ruse: At the UN, on these issues, there was nobody better than Archbishop Martino was for 14 years. He deserves our praise and our undying thanks. While the Holy Father was the guiding force, the man who did the work at the UN was Archbishop Martino. He was unbending: perfect on these issues. He was the great unsung hero of the pro-life movement at the UN.
