Rereading the article, it does say that the Archdiocese was unaware of the invitation, so maybe something will happen to make it go away. I wouldn’t put it beyond the lefties at Catholic Charities to do this to embarrass Dolan (although I have heard that efforts have been made to clean up Catholic Charities there).
When asked if consideration was given to the Obama administration’s recent attacks on religious freedom, particularly Catholicism, in inviting the president, Myers replied that she could not comment on the invitation since she did not extend it. Obama was invited, she said, by New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan.
So who's obfuscating? Joe Zwilling, Director of the Office of Communications at the archdiocese of New York, or Meghan Myers, exec director of the benefit?
If true, NO CATHOLIC ANYWHERE should defend Dolan's actions. He should be called on the carpet and groveling for forgiveness.
