Time For Nienstedt To Go | National Catholic Reporter

Time For Nienstedt To Go | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Oh, yes, Niestedt is a hypocrite on dealing with Brokeback Mountain (my Aunt Peg is an old lady in New Ulm and I think she suspect she liked the movie), but that is no surprise when he is hiding.  We'd all like to see him get in line behind Finn to retirement and unless the question of jail arises, there is no reason to move either man (although it does for Finn).  When Burke was on the Council for Bishops, I could see him taking a Sedanoist line about Church prerogative.  That neither has been removed is probably due to that as anything.  Maybe new appointments in the conference will act more quickly, because I cannot imagine the Nuncio dragging his feet.  The question is likely what do do with them.  Sending them to Rome would be sending them to to join the ongoing orgy in the Curia.  That is no punishment.  Hence the delay.
