Cardinal Dolan's Home Run at Al Smith Dinner | National Catholic Reporter

Cardinal Dolan's Home Run at Al Smith Dinner | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Cardinal Dolan hardly had the best year ever, as he willingly walked into the trap set for him by Valerie Jarrett - a trap which could have and should have been ignored (except that it benefited his organizational interests as well).  As for intermediary institutions, using them is the heart of the libertarian philosophy - although they do not accept the mandator funding element that would make that possible - nor does the Church accept a change in governance that would be required (a move toward non-profit boards from Episopal ownership) for this to include Catholicism.  The blind spot in the life of the Church is its attraction to bling.
