Archbishop Cordileone on San Francisco's Forum radio show today........

[dimbear]

Far right Cordileone, appointed as an intentional insult to perhaps America's most liberal city, received an icy welcome from the many callers, who were unanimously opposed to his policies (as far as I could tell.)

There is a lesson to be learned from such appointments.

Liberals, you are cordially invited to leave. You are dared to leave. The RCC doesn't think you have it in you.

[cbayer]

1. I think you are right that this is an intentional insult.

I sure wouldn't want to be him.

[xchrom]

2. It is indeed an affront. We will see how it plays out. Nt

3. How'd you like Archbishop Niederauer?

He was the Bishop here in Salt Lake for many years prior to moving on to San Francisco. He wasn't entirely liberal, but seemed like a decent man here locally.

How was he in S.F.?

[dimbear]

4. People liked him much better. He had the sympathy of much of the community.

San Francisco is in very many ways a Catholic town. Why slap them in the face?

Don't understand.

6. San Francisco.....

Bishop Salvatore Cordileone, chairman of the U.S. bishops' committee tasked with opposing the legalization of same-sex marriage.

This who they chose..........

Boggles the mind.

[Tumbulu]

5. Wow, I just listened to the program.....

a complete disaster!

A bizarre person with outrageous views for the SF area.

7. Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone arrested for DUI in San Diego (Saturday)............

California takes a dim view of DUI nowadays, because it is recognized that it is an offense against the commonweal.

[cbayer]

8. The article I read said "Arrested for investigation of possible DUI" and that he was

released on bail.

Something tells me there must be more to this story. At any rate, San Franciscans must be laughing their heads off at this misstep from this overly pious man.

[dimbear]

9. Yes, some say that, some sources just say arrested. What might be useful to

know was what bar or bars was/were the main source of the alcohol.

[cbayer]

10. While I hate to wish bad things on him, I hope this triggers a reconsideration

of his recent appointment.

[dimbear]

11. Update: arrested, booked, released on 2500 dollar bail.

For some reason this seems to be attracting the news folks.
