So----Cardinal Burke was not demoted?  Bishops who lived a little too "lavishly" for the style of Pope Francis were not removed or demoted?  Pope Francis has not demoted bishops for not towing the line he wants towed?  

If none of that is demotion or punishment for not towing the line, what do you consider demotion and punishment?

Besides, you miss my point.  Under Benedict XVI and JPII the liberals celebrated dissidence.  Now, all of a sudden they demand obedience.  What I am wondering is on what basis they demand obedience?  Why should Conservatives obey Pope Francis when liberals disobeyed JPII and Benny?
