I doubt that Rod Dreher really expects the Pope to call bishops before a tribunal and strip them of their ministry as summarily as is often done with priests. Bishops are a different animal, and most Catholics can accept that fact.
Realistically, I only wanted two words out the Pope on his most recent visit to us. Two words.
“Sit down.”
[Directed to Cardinal George as he attempted to school the Pope on the situation here, or to Sen. Kennedy in the Communion line.]
And guys like Rod Dreher (and me) would have taken a knee.
...and said three words, “Christ our hope.”
