And so it begins... The next Inquisition...

this is big, you better believe it... it didn't take RAT-zinger long to make his move... yeah, sure, he spun his image after the inaugural (or whatever you call a papal coronation) and talked oh-so-sweetly about "inclusiveness" and "reaching out," but i just knew it had to be too good to be true... he didn't earn the name "enforcer" by being some kind of pansy wuss... this is just the beginning... now we're gonna see how his hard-assness REALLY operates...
The editor of "America," an influential Catholic weekly magazine, has been sacked on orders from the Vatican, which threatened to impose a "board of censors" to oversee the magazine if he stayed, according to the National Catholic Reporter.

"He was forced out," NCR editor Tom Roberts said of the Rev. Thomas Reese, S.J., who had run "America" for seven years. Frequently quoted in the secular press, Reese also had been a CNN commentator during the funeral of Pope John Paul II and the election of Pope Benedict XVI.
