Frankly, I don't care if a pro-abort is disinvited by pulling them off the stage after they've begun their spiel. If David Duke were invited to a Catholic forum to speak, would you be concerned if he were "disinvited" 5 minutes before he was supposed to speak rather than 5 days beforehand?

I don't like hot-doggin', whether done by ball players or Catholic bishops.
