#3  They need to relocate this idiot to a nice rural small parish

Getting him out of the limelight would be a good thing for the Church, but he wouldn't last a nanosecond in rural America. Most folks there, Catholic or not, lean towards the view expressed in P2k's Pope quote.

#2  They need to relocate this idiot to a nice rural small parish, instead of letting him grandstand for his large liberal Chicago parish (how those people can call themselves Catholics is beyond me).

#1  "America is the greatest sin against God" - Rev. Michael 'Vanilla Ice' Pfleger

"Freedom is not only a gift, but also a summons to personal responsibility. Americans know this from experience – almost every town in this country has its monuments honoring those who sacrificed their lives in defense of freedom, both at home and abroad. The preservation of freedom calls for the cultivation of virtue, self-discipline, sacrifice for the common good and a sense of responsibility towards the less fortunate...

America has traditionally shown herself generous in meeting immediate human needs, fostering development and offering relief to the victims of natural catastrophes. I am confident that this concern for the greater human family will continue to find expression in support for the patient efforts of international diplomacy to resolve conflicts and promote progress. In this way, coming generations will be able to live in a world where truth, freedom and justice can flourish – a world where the God-given dignity and rights of every man, woman and child are cherished, protected and effectively advanced.

Mr. President, dear friends: as I begin my visit to the United States, I express once more my gratitude for your invitation, my joy to be in your midst, and my fervent prayers that Almighty God will confirm this nation and its people in the ways of justice, prosperity and peace. God bless America!" - His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI. extracted from his recent April speech at the White House.

Someone didn't read the letter from senior management.
