Review panel accuses bishops of backsliding

The St. Louis Post Dispatch carried this article today, with these comments:
"No more foot-dragging" and

Group demands annual audits of compliance with sex-abuse policy.

Nice choice of words, "foot dragging" and "demands"...

So, Anne Burke, interim head of the National Review board, while speaking to the "Voice of the Faithful" has this to say, "There can be no more foot-dragging by the hierarchy."

The Post Dispatch article states:
This is a "defining moment" for the church, said Burke, an Illinois appellate judge, speaking to members of Voice of the Faithful, a lay reform lobby group.
This is not the first time, if I recall, that Anne Burke has addressed the "Voice of the Faithful"...And the article does not tell the entire truth about the 'lay reform lobby group'.

But that is nothing new. Post Dispatch article here.
