1. The Pope ex-ex-communicated a bishop. No Catholic is justifying the Bishop’s comments. It allows the bishop (necessarily a sinner) access to the sacraments (including reconciliation). He may need them more than most.

2. I haven’t heard outrage from any Jewish community over the election of Obama.

3. Those Jewish leaders feigning offense at Pope Benedict and being silent about the Obama administration should be ignored.

4. The MSM never misses an opportunity to throw dirt at the Vatican, they could very well have manufactured this “outrage.”

I haven't heard outrage about the 47% of CHURCHGOING Cat'licks (including many in my family) who voted for Obama.

Gotta love those solidly conservative Catholic states like Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Jersey! ;-)
