Kerry and the Election
An overview from CWNews. Includes my quote of the day:
There was an oddly asymmetrical quality to the debate among American bishops earlier in the summer. The "conservative" bishops like Archbishop Burke--soon joined by others including Bishops Robert Vasa of Baker City, Oregon, and Fabian Bruskewitz of Lincoln, Nebraska--directed their public statements against the actions of unrepentant public sinners. The "liberal" bishops replied by criticizing their own brother bishops. One group of bishops tried to address the source of a scandal; the other group tried to quiet the complaints without addressing the scandal itself.
