He could stop general absolution in one day.
He would if he could without creating greater damage. One of the reasons why so many Catholics left the Church after Vat.2 was the abruptness of the liturgical "changes" - things were done overnight and without concern for people's pace of adjustment. Cardinal George is wonderful Bishop and a true blessing for Chicago.

Yeah, right!! See below:
CHICAGO, April 26 (UPI) -- Comments by Cardinal Francis George on priests who engage in sexual encounters with teenage girls stirred the ire of feminists and others, prompting some to call for his resignation. Following a meeting earlier this week at the Vatican between U.S. cardinals and the pope, George said sanctions against priests who violate celibacy and chastity vows should distinguish between sexual predators who prey on young children and the priest who gets drunk and engages in a sex act "with a 17- or 16-year-old young woman who returns his affection."
