Stop the presses!

An abuse victim is calling for the resignation of (GASP!!!) Cardinal Mahony of Los Angeles. "A woman says she was molested by a priest after officials promised he wouldn't work around kids." On the bright side, he's not into little boys.

The official response? Oh, this gets better: "Archdiocese spokesman Tod Tamberg said there was nothing improper about letting Rucker retire without reprimand in 1987, two years after Mahony became cardinal... 'Many of the victims direct all their anger at Cardinal Mahony,' Tamberg said. 'It's unfair and somewhat misdirected, although understandable.'"

What a doofus!!!

[UPDATE: As of this date, our heroes at VOTF are still not calling for Cardinal Mahony's resignation. Stay tuned...]
