This has been my experience as well. Sadly the Liberal USSCB does not realize this and at this time I don't think they would care if they did realize it.
It seems to me that about a third of the bishops in the US are solid, a third are cowards, and a third are knowingly or unknowingly working for the enemy. I may be over-estimating the "solid" category.
Under these circumstances, I am surprised that they approved the new liturgical texts. On the other hand, I think they were basically ordered to approve them from Rome. However it happened, I'm grateful and am looking forward to Advent 2011.
