Is this the ecclesiastical equivalent of being put in charge of a 24 hour bowling alley during the night shift?

Bergoglio, as the Bishop of Rome, is a real stinker ....

I’ve had an uneasy feeling about this pope from the beginning.

Cardinal Burke is the one who told John Kerry that he’d better not try to receive Communion in St. Louis — that he’d be denied.

He was very much disliked by a lot of people during his time in St. Louis.

This is just devastating.

There’s no longer any defending this Pope.

Something smells of rotten fish or hurt feelings here.

Well he is still a Cardinal and still will have a vote (and influence) in the College of Cardinals.

there are lots of cardinals that are essentially
Archbishops in a red hat, and nothing more.

But yet leftwing Bishops and Cardinals aren’t in fear of being demoted or exiled.

Cardinal Burke is originally from Wisconsin. This topic concerns all Catholics — especially the traditional ones.

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
