What a crock!

In my private conversations with her in the very late 70s she displayed none of this nonesense, only devotion and concern for her children.

She was actually a natural conservative - probably why she could not abide the clan.

McSorley was a creep. It isn't clear that these conversations took place in a confessional situation. If so, McSorley committed a mortal sin and it was something he could have been excommunicated for....i.e. revealing what was said by a particular penitent. Even if it was outside the bounds of a formal confession, to reveal it to outsiders was plain tacky and unethical. I thought his name sounded vaguely familiar, then someone else here linked it with Clinton---then I remembered this McSorley praised Billy-Blow-Job to the skies when he mentioned him in his stupid book called "Peace Eyes." Priests like that we DON'T need.
