Martino was staunch in his defense of Catholicism, was strongly anti-abortion, strongly anti-homosexual, strongly anti-Obama, strongly anti Notre Dame having Obama speak.

I don't know where you are getting your information.

Too bad he's leaving.

Philly had Archbishop "Tough Tony" Bevilacqua who had similar problems, in particular trying to get and keep gays out of the seminary system.

Ther "light in the loafer" clergy are not leaving without a fight!

I was about to say "not going down without a fight," but thought it inappropriate.

video of conference.

I don't know where you are getting your information.

What do you mean by this? I simply got the information from the AP and AJC articles.
