In reply to the discussion: Are there women in any of the top leadership roles at the Vatican? [View all]joshcryer
(62,269 posts)27. Shartlet' book specifically says she was not a member.
Why make stuff up?
suming the diagram is about supporting a given system. It would be two cells, one exclusive, one non-exclusive. Both systems are exclusive from the point of view of Spaude and Coe as they have their own non-inclusive agendas at the top. They both happen to be anti-gay, for example.

Here's what he says about Clinton:
Hillary may well be God's beautiful child, but she's not a member of Coe's Family. Rather, I'd been told at Ivanwald, she's a "friend," less elect then a member, but more chosen than the rest of us. A fellow traveler but not a sister. Her goals are not their goals; but when on occasion they coincide, Hillary and the Family can work together.
