Guess they haven't got the memo yet...

US Catholic conference of Bishop voices alarm over Iraq.

They HATE to say they told us so (quagmire! quagmire!) but... and they want us to work with Iran and Syria...like that hasn't been tried before.

BALTIMORE - Increasingly frustrated by the war in Iraq and worried about bellicose talk toward Iran, the outgoing president of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops described the situation in Iraq yesterday as "unacceptable and unsustainable" and called for the Bush administration to work with Iran and Syria to stabilize the region...

About the incoming president Bishop Francis George...

"As archbishop of Chicago, Francis George's recent record on the crisis has been characterized by an inexplicably high tolerance for priests credibly accused of sexually assaulting children,"

Here's a copy of the memo
for the Bishop's no doubt overflowing in basket.
