Here's some inside dope for you

I had a brief conversation with someone who works at the US Conference of Catholic Bishops. I asked about the controversy surrounding some of the appointments to the lay National Review Board. He said he only knew of one person who had been controversial - McHugh who disagrees with the validity of surpressed memories. No mention of Panetta or Bennet. Apparently the staff there doesn't see any other appointments as controversial. I know this has been blogged about extensively. I am in agreement with most of my fellow bloggers. I believe this shows a stunning disregard for the dissent that has had a large part in creating this crisis. Gov. Keating said this of the board: "this is an impressive group of Catholic lay leaders who are committed to restoring credibility and faith in the church." How about a group that contains members who are unapologetic about the truth of Catholic doctrine?
