I FOUND IT:

"I do not envy President Bush's dilemma. He faces what some might say is a bit of a Hobson's choice: act agressively now and perhaps spawn future Osama bin Ladens, or act with restraint and be subjected to possible future attacks originating out of Iraq. We do have a right to self-defense, but since September 11th it is much harder to establish clear perimeters of protection. We must proceed with care. We must be vigilant. But we must acknowledge that people definitely would die if we go in to Iraq."

Your pastor has it right. I don't know much about the Chicago Diocese but here in Albany, the parishioners have survived under the 25 year reign of one of the most liberal bishops in the US.

The pastor at Sacred Heart in Troy delivered an insidious message. It goes well beyond distasteful.

Thank you for posting. Let me know if you want to be on a catholic ping list.
