When will Abp. Niederauer add his voice to the Pelosi counters?

It has been fascinating to watch how statements from bishops have followed step-by-step the questions (and outcries) raised by concerned Catholics in the wake of Pelosi's comments.

Basically, the Bishops know, as do the faithful, who should be saying something, and when.

Let me illustrate:

• First, it was "won't any bishop say anything?" Then Abp. Chaput issued his statement.
• Then it was "won't the USCCB say anything?" Then the USCCB issued its statement.
• Then it was "well, but will Wuerl say anything?" Then Abp. Wuerl issued his statement.

But one more shoe needs to drop...

• The last thing I've been hearing is "will Niederauer (Pelosi's home bishop) say anything?"

That remains to be seen... but with each statement being issued, the San Francisco silence grows louder.

update: Pelosi herself has noted her "regional" immunity when asked about receiving communion:

Pelosi, a Roman Catholic whose district includes most of San Francisco, said she has not encountered such difficulties in her church.

“I think some of it is regional,” she said, “It depends on the bishop of a certain region, and, fortunately for me, communion has not been withheld and I’m a regular communicant, so that would be a severe blow to me if that were the case.”

"Severe blow" for you politically or ... spiri-, you know what, - nevermind.

update 2: The Archdiocese of San Francisco has opted to re-print the USCCB statement. More here.
