A liberal believes it took courage to invite 0bama on behalf of a Catholic university. Do you think conservatives or liberals run ND?
I think ND went with the popularity of Obama instead of sticking to their principles. I personally don’t see that as courageous - to just jump on the BO bandwagon.
You believe a liberal needs “courage” to rescind an invite to 0bama?

Not a Catholic, don't really know the university, apart from its football team - and even that, not so much lately.But I know that not everyone who attains a position of authority in nominally Catholic institutions restricts their public comments to what would be approved by the pope.
And I know that it takes courage to refuse to "go with the flow," as Miss California elected to do when she knew perfectly well that she was in a position where the "way which seemeth right to men" was not the Christian way.
"The way which seemeth right to men" will never get you in trouble with "objective journalists," so institutions go with that flow unless they are explicitly conservative. The problem seems to be that the University of Notre Dame is nominally conservative - except that can fail to play out in practice.
