Cushing was an old family friend (through my grandfather) so I don't take this stuff lightly. He certainly had his faults (mainly political, he was a real hardball player when necessary, and sometimes even when it wasn't) but he did a lot to repair the sectarian damage done during the archbishopric of O'Connell, especially with the Jewish community.
I have no idea what the 'standards' of these boards are, but I'd like to think that baselessly attempting to smear someone who's been dead for almost 40 years and then responding "Who, me?" when called on it isn't one of them.
Go in peace.
