You could do:
{{if organization:}}FN: {{=organization.name}}
ORG: {{=organization.name}}{{pass}}
and you won't get any blank lines when there is an organization, but I
think you'll still get two blank lines when there is no organization.
Another option might be to render the response in the controller and then
remove any blank lines from the text:
def make_vcard():
data = [code to generate vcard data]
vcard = response.render(context=dict(data=data))
return vcard.replace('\n\n', '\n')
