U.S.Catholics Loss -The Universal Church’s Gain - Archbishop Burke "Promoted" to Vatican (links)

Sad day in many was. Archbishop Burke has been a wonder Archbishop of St Louis and a inspiration for many American Catholics. The first non-European named to head the historic tribunal, which dates from the 15th century and no doubt this means he will soon become a Cardinal

Father Z has small note on this at Congratulations Archbp. Burke!
Whispers in the Loggia has a post up of course at The "Chief Justice": A St Louis Cardinal
Watch his site for more details

AP has St. Louis archbishop to head Vatican tribunal

The St Louis Catholic Paper has Pope appoints Archbishop Burke to Vatican post (look at this site for updates a they are promised)

The Catholic News Service has Pope appoints US Archbishop Burke to head Vatican's highest court

I suspect many enemies of the faith( and I am not being dramatic) are thrilled he is leaving

Update-Much more here at Inside Catholic including to link to John Allens article , the Interdict that Archbishop Burke has just done on a dissenter , and more statements and links at Big news out of St. Louis

The St Louis Catholic Blog has a lot and know doubt will be a place to keep updated
