Catholic Bishop Who Helped Create Prop 8-Arrested For DUI-Day After Being Named Archbishop

[kpete]

A Catholic bishop who was instrumental in creating California’s Proposition 8 same sex marriage ban was arrested for driving under the influence over the weekend — less than a day after the church insulted LGBT activists by naming him the Archbishop of San Francisco.

According to KGO, Bishop Salvatore Cordileone was arrested in San Diego’s College District on Saturday morning just before 12:30 a.m.

Salvatore, who has called marriage equality “the ultimate attack of the Evil One,” organized Catholic and evangelical leaders to back Proposition 8, a 2008 ballot initiative that enshrined marriage discrimination in the California state constitution.

Pope Benedict XVI announced on Friday morning that Cordileone had been appointed to serve as the Metropolitan Archbishop of San Francisco.

1. Pope Ratzo the First might want to defrock him right away

Have to show upstanding citizenship when being out in public, not drunk as a skunk.

So, the next day gets fired as Archbishop of SF. Who's next in line?

2. A guy's gotta celebrate...there probably weren't any altar boys available..

Pervert.

3. Well I will tell you this much being a catholic. I wonder how many masses he served at that day?

You know they drink wine during the mass. I have seen my priest I worked after services get a little tipsy. They usually don't eat before a service. I have seen a priest do a mass, christenings and funeral and mass again if it is a big parrish. I am not giving him a pat on the back because I don't even know who this guy is but already I can see I don't like his politics.

5. uhhh this was at 12:30 in the AM on a saturday..

not a whole lot of masses happening here in san diego on a friday night. certainly not enough to have this guy blow at that hour of the day.

6. Drunk Drivers kill, hopefully his license to drive is taken away...

I'd prefer he get thrown in jail for at least 5 years, posing a danger to others should face stiff penalties.

7. Now that he's an Archbishop

He'll just take some of the local congregants' offerings and use them for a fancy car service. He'll stick to something less than the Pope-mobile, like a normal limo, since he doesn't want to get on Ratfinger's nerves. He doesn't want Ratfinger thinking that he's gunning for the old man's job.
