This comment encapsulates the narrowness of your own evaluation. I am grateful that someone like Schonborn is in one of the preeminent Sees of the Church where he has been able to be a force for good. Where he has given us lessons in the need for discernment, and, you know, not seeing things in such black & white terms. 

Also, again, you ignore the fact that even in the good old days of the USCCB, the forces in the conference were, in fact, John Paul appointees. Bernardin being the prime example. Roger Mahoney is another. It is not nearly as black & white as you suggest.
