St Louis (sort of) and Washington D.C Get Their Cardinals (LINKS)

The sort of let down of the day was that Archbishop Collins north of the border in Toronto was not on the list of Archbishops to be Cardinals. As I posted earlier as early this morning it was being reported in Italy as almost a assumed fact.

However I am pretty sure this time next year he will be on the Pope's list which should be the most American heavy list in some time. Perhaps history.

Two Americans got the Cardinal RED.That is Donald Wuerl of Washington D.C. and Burke of St Louis. Archbishop Burke is residing in Rome as head of the Vatican "Supreme Court" but he still has the title Archbishop-emeritus of St. Louis, so technically he's still is a St Louis boy which seems proper.

a post up at Red Alert, Red Alert that has several links. Will try to update with some other links later.
