Cardinal Juan Sandoval Iñiguez is no brave man

Marcelo Ebrard, in response to numerous provocations from Cardinal Juan Sandoval Iñiguez of Guadalajara, recently took a jab at the highly reactionary cleric by referring to him as a cavernal, or caveman. To this can be added another epithet: Coward. In response to Ebrard's current lawsuit against Sandoval and other high clergy, who have hurled around, with no evidence, accusations that Ebrard has bribed the Supreme Court, that Ebrard's party is "fascist," and so forth, Sandoval pathetically declared that it was not him, but the media, that are guilty of the "moral damage" Ebrard is suing Sandoval for. Why the media? Well, because they actually reported Sandoval's serious accusations. That's right, take no responsibility for your own statements, but shoot the messenger that reports them to the public as a whole...

It is clear that the Guadalajara cardinal is not even man enough to stand up for his own words: Not only a cultural caveman, he is also a coward.
