From 3,000 miles away Why does Cardinal Dolan always strike me as a blusterer. He appears to utilise a "deflection" method of communicating. His track record is well established in dealing with the clerical abuse crisis and his wizardry with protecting diocesan funds, from the hands of the legitimate claims of victims, is legendary. 
In his usual pompous approach he now proclaims (as reported above) that "every child from conception onward, deserves love and the protection of the law" & that "all decent and humane people are repulsed by the callous treatment of women and children in clinics". and that "he was speaking on behalf of the country and the children whose lives were at stake" .

I would nominate him for the Platinum Globe Brass Neck of the Year Award.

Where was he when young children were being mauled by "his brothers" in Christ. Did he stand up and equally vocalise his repulsion at the callous treatment perpetrated by clerics and religious or did he quietly turn away.
