It was tough for him to be a bigger jerk than his father, but he did it.

...Cuomo has joined those whom historian Richard Hofstadter described as “totalitarian liberals”...

As opposed to those other kinds of liberals... uh... wait a minute...

When Paul Castellano , a big Mafia boss was murdered in 1985 by rival mobsters, Cardinal O’Connor denied him a Catholic burial and entombment in a Catholic cemetery due to his open, unrepentant criminal life. Cardinal Dolan needs to do some serious thinking and reflection.

Cuomo is a Democrat and that’s how they think. Vote them out, vote them all out!

Notice the date of the exchange was last year. Cuomo’s statements, at that time, were mild by comparison to what he said this past Friday. Yet ... I have scoured the news links and fin absolutely nothing from Dolan since Friday. His silence is deafening. The old “slap on the back, wink & nod, happy go lucky” attitude will not cut it this time. He is a serious disappointment as archbishop.

We are attacking him left and right, He is doing a mea culpa and we are not backing down. Face book has exploded.

The date of that article was months ago, we have generations of this.

The leading Catholic figures in America are almost all like Cuomo and are leaders in the political party of most Catholics, did he actually single out Catholics as not welcome in NY?

Certainly the good bishop of Albany and the jolly archbishop of New York will set Coumo straight by lunch time tommorow. I should think. Or, do they have a sense of humor about these things?

I have to assume the "good bishop of Albany" has a sense of humor:

Albany Bishop Howard Hubbard says it is "unfair and imprudent" to conclude that Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his girlfriend, Sandra Lee, shouldn't receive Communion simply because they're living together.
-- from the thread Bishop: None of your business (Hubbard rejects Catholic expert's criticism of Gov. Cuomo)

Here is a tweet from the actress Heaton

What will it take before the church finally understands that there are times when some who call themselves Catholics are so vile, so filled with hate and evil and even murder, that excommunication is called for?

Perhaps this is the (new) face of the Catholic Church...If it is not, shouldn't take long for your pope to renounce this guy...

And yet the RINOS on our team try to reach out and find common ground with these lefty idiots. When will they figure out that the Dems want to take out every last one of us who is a non-liberal. They don’t want to find consensus with us. They want to destroy us!

Cardinal Dolan and the bishops of New York’s other eight dioceses have an obligation to respond and to condemn anyone – especially any Catholic public figure – who threatens those who adhere to Church doctrine.

Indeed!

Is Cuomo living in a self-deceptive fantasy world where liberals like him believe that their opinions reflect majority voter opinion?

Unfortunately, it's not a fantasy. Do you happen to recall the last two presidential elections?

‘By claiming that people who disagree with his cultural views “have no place in the state of New York,” Cuomo has joined those whom historian Richard Hofstadter described as “totalitarian liberals,” people who employ illiberal means to achieve so-called liberal reforms.’

Exactly.

Add Nancy Pelosi, pundit Chris Matthews, Sen. Richard Durbin, SOS John Kerry, and all of the ‘Catholic’ members of the Democrat caucus to that list of people that no Catholic concerned about his soul should associate with.

Catholic priests or Bishops cannot mention any candidate by name.

That doesn't seem to be the rule for black churches that often turn their pulpits over to Dem candidates.
