Nope, Benny would never have done such a thing, er, except sacking Bishop Morris of Australia and following up the sacking by sending a personal letter to the Bishop stating that he needn't even think about having recourse to canon law because he (Benny) hires and fires the Bishops. 

And Cardinal Burke is one of the few Cardinals in the world who has excommunicated Catholics.

The truth is you people were quite happy to see forced resignations, sackings and excommunications when it suited your conservative agenda. Don't even start with the Benny was a loveable, fluffy bunny routine. He was an arrogant bully who got found out in the end.
