This is not a question nor an apologetics issue…just more Sede rhetoric.

ComradeAndrei:
Read it carefully, it is pretty ultratraditionalist.
Yeah, the author of the article is an editor of *the remnant *“A national catholic newspaper established in 1967”. It sounds like they are still in communion with Rome, but highly critical of anything after VII. From their statement of purpose page:

It is also important to note that The Remnant is not an “Indult Catholic” journal, nor is it a “Society of St. Pius X Catholic” journal (although its editors have great respect and admiration for the late Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre), nor is it a “Fraternity of St. Peter Catholic” journal.

The Remnant is Roman Catholic and that is all. And it will (please God) defend the traditions of the Roman Catholic Church for however long its doors remain open. So to put it in a nutshell, The Remnant’s position is simply Catholic, and its purpose is simply to defend the traditions of the Holy Roman Catholic Church.

As a lay-run apostolate, the editors of The Remnant recognize that it is only a very small and limited instrument against the forces of Modernism which presently have the Bride of Christ by the throat. But it is a small effort that, in its small way, continues to at least try to do something to oppose the prevailing madness within the Church and within the world today.

The Restoration of the Catholic Church will come from the top down, and not from the bottom up. And so it is that lay efforts like The Remnant carry on, always looking to Rome for the real Restoration to finally begin.
 
Although I disagree with a few things Pope John Paul II had done in terms of ecuminism, I believe you can sum up the secret of his success with one word, Love
 
Don’t forget to wear a white ribbon this Sunday to commemorate John Paul II’s death
