Missing Spine Alert

Many of us were relieved last week when Francis Cardinal George of Chicago appeared to have steeled himself and, at long last, dispatched the Archdiocese's crazy uncle in attic, Fr. Michael Pfleger; "temporarily removing [him] as pastor of St. Sabina Roman Catholic Church on Chicago's South Side." Unfortunately, "temporarily" was the operative word: Fr. Pfleger is already back at his post and under "no restrictions" so it looks as if the clown masses will continue on the South Side.
