| Dolan and Egan: faces of evil. Dog knows what they're laughing at. |
This is how legends are created by our intrepid, independent press:
NEW
YORK (AP) — Cardinal Edward Egan was eating breakfast when then-Mayor
Rudy Giuliani called to say there was a tragedy and the churchman was
needed. A police car would soon be outside the chancery to take the
leader of New York's Roman Catholics downtown.
Egan
didn't know exactly what had happened in lower Manhattan that morning
as he and his priest-secretary hurtled through the city . . . He would
spend the next several days anointing the dead, distributing rosaries to
workers as they searched, yada yada yada.
That's
just what you need to do in a crisis: call some twit priest who's on a
first-name basis with sky fairies so he can mutter incantations and give bits of plastic away. I'm sure that helped
a ton. And many thanks to the inestimable Rudy Giuliani for calling this jerk instead of someone who could, you know,
do something. The reporter's reverent tone makes me ill. "There was a tragedy and the churchman was needed." Indeed. I hope the church paid the writer well for this slavering bit of iconography.
