Now, a U.S. cardinal denounces Notre Dame’s Obama invite | Top of the Ticket | Los Angeles Times.

Cardinal Daniel DiNardo has become the first American cardinal to denounce the University of Notre Dame for inviting Democratic President Barack Obama as its commencement speaker in May and to receive an honorary degree. Four Catholic bishops have now criticized the school for its decision to invite a pro-choice president to address its university body, including as The Ticket reported here the other day, Bishop John D’Arcy of northern Indiana announcing that he would boycott the famous Catholic school’s May 17 commencement exercises over the invitation to the president, who recently broadened funding of stemcell research.
