“I miss Cardinal O’Connor. He would not have permitted it. He wouldn’t even permit Pat Schroder to speak there because of her view on abortion, and O’Connor had to be dead for the Clinton to get in.”

Family friend. Pastor at the USNA back in the day

He would not have allowed it. He refused to open the doors of the Cathedral refused to take part in the St Patrick’s day parade one year

He stood for the faith, the Church and for Jesus. And that is all they are tasked to do. They can all quit whining and just have a relationship with Jesus.

I use to send a crate of blueberries (specially picked by me) to the head of radio programming) every year. He would shared the crate with the Cardinal.

Still reme.ber when TWA 800 went down and he was at the airport comforting the family. Clinton still president called him and told him he was coming there. O'Connor told him, if he showed up, he would leave. Clinton never showed up.

If I am not mistaken Cardinal O’Connor did a tour of duty in Nam. Actually I think it was two tours.
