I feel guilty for feeling this way, but I really wish Mahony had nothing to do with it.

Time for the vultures.

The Cardinal doesn't even wait for the pontiff to die before jumping a plane to escape LA.

The fact that this cardinal was not defrocked defines the political problem with the Church. I couldn't care less where he goes, what he does or says unless he's leaving. He allowed the homosexual scandal rack the Church and if that's not cause for dismissal, I don't know what is.
As a conservative, traditional Catholic, I'd be for getting rid of any bishop who didn't eject homosexual clergy in the last four decades, without exception and refusing to ordain more of them. That was the papal order and the US hierarchy who ignored it should be penalized. It is THEY who are responsible for the Scandal in the Church.

"As with many of the other cardinals who will choose a successor to John Paul II, this would be Mahony's first participation in such a conclave. He described himself as being "very excited but also nervous."

God help us. What does he think this is, his first prom? Sorry, but I can't stand that man.

Mahony should be in Prison along with "card" Law and about 20 other hierarchal Miscreants.
Egan, Daily, Murphy, McCormack and Banks come to mind.

[Salvation]

All the Cardinals are going to Rome.

How is it that Mahony gets pages space in the LAT?

Follow the money, honey?????

Inquiring minds want to know.

[BlessedBeGod]

Ah, the devil himself is flying to Rome.

I wonder when the demon gave Mahony the order to go to Rome? Oh but silly me. When you cohabit like that you just know that sort of thing, don't you...
