“Archbishop Burke IS speaking for the Vatican, EVERYTHING he says in his position as Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura is an official statement from the Vatican and is done with the Holy Father’s approval.”
That’s right, Pope Benedict PICKED Archbishop Burke to represent the Vatican, and picked Archbishop Burke for a reason.
LMSM is always trying to divide prolifers, and other conservatives, and sadly, it works every time.
You have to agree that going through any underling, no matter how well you think of that person, water downs the public message.
Nothing could be more powerful than the Pope making a statement. He sure did with regard to his chastising Israel and urging Israel to give up land for peace this week during his trip there.
Again (I think this is the 3rd time I have said this), I think it is great this bishop issued a statement 9 days or so ago about Obama's upcoming visit to Notre Dame. I didn't know about it, but I am glad he did.
But, the headline on Drudge is still correct. Obama spoke today. If the Vatican issues a response, I will be happy to post the link. Or, you may as well.
Thanks.
