From Talking Points Memo:

Former Catholic Archbishop of D.C. Theodore McCarrick

No surprise there - McCarrick was a friend of pro-abortion lawmakers during his tenure as Archbishop. And he was an active participant in the Ted Kennedy funeral.

He also withheld a letter he had received from the CDF (penned by Josef Ratzinger) in 2004 regarding pro-abort Catholic politicians and Holy Communion.

So the nature of his convictions has always been pretty clear.

If Archbishop Wuerl had attended I guess I would have been disappointed but not surprised. I am relieved that he was not present.

Looks to me like Churches are going to have to start taking specific positions on issues and getting the word out there or risk rogue leadership to define who they are for them.
