Egan was screaming for justice against the terrorists from the moment it happened. His comments are being blown way out of proportion. Even President Bush said we need to re-examine our "culture". It's not about blaming the U.S. for the attack, it's about recognizing how precious and short life is, how much evil is in the world, and fixing those areas where we are falling short ourselves. This is usually when those things happen (e.g. Pearl Harbor), when people start re-prioritizing and repenting for their own misdeeds. Cardinal Egan is not blaming Americans, he is calling on us to reflect on how we can refrain from contributing to evil in our country (as people are still getting murdered, mugged, and abused on your block).

Screw him! You had a**hole Drinan and that a**hole bishop (Gunderson?) joining the backstabbing Blame America crowd and now the Cardinal of NYC the home of the WTC and hundreds of (mostly Catholic) dead fireman and cops with thousands of children and he talks about examing our behavior.

Get with your country, "Cardinal Maher"!

When asked a direct question, his answer was that our foreign policy shared in the responsibility for this attack, and to me, these remarks on foreign soil are traitorous at this juncture.

The President is wrong too.
