[Magdalen] for Christopher

[Grace Cangialosi]

I just realized that I phrased my question to Christopher backwards when I referred to "the former." I thought having confirmations done at GC was unfair, for the reasons I mentioned.
OTOH, if the 2003 elections hadn't gone to GC for consent, Gene Robinson probably wouldn't have been confirmed.

I always thought the former procedure was unfair, in that it could make a real spectacle of the consent process, as it did with Gene Robinson. I don't even remember who else was approved at that time; their names kind of got lost in the shuffle, and that seems a shame.
