I\u2019m reminded of that because last week, within, like, an hour of Francis\u2019 election there were trolls in my combox who had instantly moved from \u201cJorge who?\u201d to \u201cI am an an expert on Bergoglio and I denounce his cooperation with the Argentine military junta!\u00a0 He betrayed priests to the regime!!!\u00a0 I AM OUTRAGED\u2026. OUUUUUTRAAAAAAAAAGED!!!!! (See this Wikipedia link.\u00a0 It proves all.\u00a0 Let me reiterate both my expertise and extremely righteous moral dudgeon that isn\u2019t grasping for any excuse to condemn him or anything.\u00a0 And may I repeat: I AM OUTRAGED\u2026. OUUUUUTRAAAAAAAAAGED!!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n

Yeah.\u00a0 About that entirely charitable episode from anonymous combox cowards.\u00a0 Here\u2019s the thing: John Allen looked into that eight years ago and asked Amnesty International what was what.\u00a0 AI replied, \u201cNo there there.\u201d\u00a0 That should have put the boots on it right there.\u00a0 But now, in a turn of events that would make Athanasius clap and giggle\u2026.<\/p>\n

Pope Francis did not denounce me to Argentinian junta, says priest\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n

What do you think the odds are that the combox accusers will come forward and apologize?<\/p>\n

Yeah, me neither.\u00a0 But let\u2019s hope they at least reconsider their eagerness to condemn him.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
