Congratulations Eminenza!
I've met Cardinal Burke five times and attended his Masses more than that. He is a beautiful celebrant and a wonderful preacher of the truths of Religion. He is a great prelate and we are lucky to have him. I think I notice shamrocks on his rochet. It looks wonderful. God bless him!
God bless Cardinal Burke upon this anniversary but don't forget that he has been serving the Church in many ways even before he was called to Rome.
thank God that the Holy Father is able to surround himselv with good men like cardinal Burke
We r living in great days. Long may it continue. BK
I would also like to send congratulations to Cardinal Burke. I commend your association on a fine blog and on your keep Christ in Christmas campaign.
Blessings and long years to the Cardinal!
Pope Benedict couldn't have made a better choice. Wouldn't it be wonderful if he was sent to Ireland? We need a fearless apostle to take up the work of St. Patrick. Ireland needs a leader to bring her back to the right path. I think Cardinal Burke would be the man we need.
Ad multos annos!

I can't believe it's already a year for the Chief Justice of the Vatican. God bless the Cardinal! BenB
He is a mighty man altogether. Many more years to him!
I agree that it is good to see such a good man close to Pope Benedict and I am thankful that he is well placed and young and energetic enough to be well placed in the next conclave in many many years time. The important work of the Pope has to be carried on by a successor who will be faithful to tradition. We need to storm heaven for Pope Benedict and Cardinal Raymond.

His comments on a Novus Novus Ordo were worrying.
Cardinal Burke is great!
HE certainly looks very splendid.
