If Gerry McCann told me the sky was "up", I would still look out the window to check for myself.

Archdiocese allowed pollution at PJP, according to McCann
Thursday, August 17, 2006 Former Jersey City Mayor Gerry McCann - a proud Irish Catholic and former altar boy - ripped the Newark Archdiocese yesterday, saying it has failed to live up to its responsibilities at the PJP landfill site. "The Catholic Church is skirting their responsibility," McCann said in a five-minute rant at yesterday's City Council meeting. "When I was mayor, we filed a lawsuit against them, and a priest came up to me and said I wasn't being a good Catholic." The former mayor said the Newark Archdiocese has never taken responsibility for "allowing" contaminated material to be dumped on the PJP site, owned by the Church, which led to a number of underground fires at the site and legal action by the city. Archdiocese spokesman James Goodness referred all questions to the Church's attorney, who couldn't be reached for comment. After a long dispute involving a number of parties, Waste Management Inc. has signed a consent order with the state to clean up the site. Council members didn't respond to McCann's comments.
