The parish should be interdicted, if that fails it should simply be supressed.

What are the chances of something like this happening? Who is this bishop directly answerable to and why isn't that someone comming down on him like a ton of bricks?

The chances are slim, actually. There are very few bishops in this country with the spine to withstand the ravaging onslaught of the homosexuals, the MSM and - sad to say - a significant portion of their own uncatechized flocks. Archbishop Niederauer is definitely not one of those few.

However, that an interdict of the parish (maybe even the archdiocese itself) and a suppression of the parish should take place cannot be denied. If Rome gets wind of this, maybe something concrete will happen, though I doubt an interdict will result (maybe Niederauer will be called to Rome and ordered to grow a set immediately for future contingencies). Nevertheless, Benedict is clearly less tolerant of the abuses that his predecessor put up with, and I think he is slowly buiilding his foundational strength to take up with the heretics and apostates head-on.
