Now maybe the Bishop of Virginia can phone the Bishop of SW.VA. and explain to him why. Apparently Neff Powell has never seen a liberal that he doesn't endorse as an automatic reaction.
What an embarrassment to us who have to live with him for several more years. One lay person who voted for Powell at election now says that he isn't anything like he got himself elected to be and that she's sorry to have voted for him. So am I.
Well, shut my mouth!
So there is indeed a level of weird Peter Lee won't countenance. Better let the good folks at Grace Cathedral know. They may want to reconsider bringing him on. He may not be a fit in the land of the looney after all.
After the Robinson vote in 2003, Mr. Lee indicated that he had never withheld consent to any bishop-elect. So this is a first!
