Do you have any evidence that he KNEW he had hit a human being? I thought not. NONE of us know what actually happened, and I'm sure we won't for some time.

He didn't try to have the windshield fixed on Sunday, by the way...it was Monday morning. He told his secretary to inquire about it. He obviously wasn't hiding the condition of the car, either, as you would expect if he knew he had killed a man in a hit-and-run accident. He drove it to church so he could say Mass on Sunday and then to visit his sister in Scottsdale. Hardly the actions of a criminal trying to cover his tracks, I'd say.

I just wish someone had managed to get the license plate number of the other car that hit the victim...you know, the one who not only ran him over with his car but then dragged him 40 feet.

As a lifelong Catholic, I was raised to think highly of priests. If I had to take the word of a priest over a regular old Joe, the priest would win. I believe the Bishop when he says he thought he hit an animal, and I will continue to believe him until it is proven otherwise.

Same here ---and as an American I was raised to think highly of presidents ----but then we had Clinton. I believe someone has to earn respect, you can't just give it to them.

Well, in his mind it was an animal. Maybe a pink elephant.
