No, the Cardinal approved the censor, not every decision the censor made. That is why infallibility is only reserved to the Pontiff under very specific conditions.

You need to educate yourself on how the area of governance a cardinal exercises can be and usually is very LOCAL notwithstanding his position as cardinal.

Move to St Louis and you can can have plenty of them in your neighborhood.
