Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the archbishop of New York, said Sunday the Obama administration’s policy on contraception was “a dramatic radical intrusion of government bureaucracy in the internal life” of the Catholic Church and vowed to continue to fight the ruling.

 

In an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Dolan reiterated that he remained unsatisfied with the administration’s policy requiring that employees of religious organizations, including Catholic groups, have access to contraception.

“We didn’t ask for the fight, but we’re not going to back away from it,” Dolan added.

That's the first time I have watched/listened to Cardinal Timothy Dolan. What a good, wise, strong and engaging man.
