John Kennedy was right
“Since 2000, (President) Bush has courted church leaders, including Boston’s embattled Cardinal Law, whom many rank and file suspect of protecting pedophile priests. Bush’s team has relied ‘too much on the hierarchy’ for voter outreach, one adviser says. ‘This will force them to think more broadly about just who Catholics are.’ ” (Jackie Calmes, Wall St. Journal, May 10, 2002, pg A4)

President Kennedy was on target vis-a-vis Catholic Bishops. Upon hearing that two groups – one of Nuns and one of Bishops - wanted to meet with him, Kennedy said he would meet with the Nuns “since the Bishops will vote Republican anyway.”
