Father Raymond J. de Souza nails it.
Despite the misgivings I had about Trump — and they are still massive — the last week has brought the compensatory delight of witnessing the establishment class achieving the rare combination of being simultaneously depressed and apoplectic. Had President Barack Obama declared a national day of mourning it could not have been more intensely observed by the folks on CNN — and the CBC.
"Compensatory delight" has such a delightful ring to it!
An excellent read, well worth your time. One of the most sussinct takes on the whole matter.
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting it. Good thing the good Father is Canadian. If her were American the IRS would be after his church's tax-exempt status in a heartbeat.
Thanks Matt, Fr de Sousa writes regularly for the National Post and I almost always agree with him.
Delete"..I oppose most of Trump’s enumerated policies — most seriously the “Muslim ban”.."
ReplyDeleteI've been scratching my head over the continued "Christian" premise that we must flood our nation with Muslim immigrants. Where in the bible are we instructed to destroy our country by importing populations that despise everything we hold dear?
"Whatever the Clintons touch, they diminish, and their exit from the body politic is good for America’s political hygiene."
Yes. Wash. Rinse. Bleach. Wash again.
OMG, I just saw the top of the sidebar! LMAO!!! :))
ReplyDeleteI do what I can...
DeleteOT: Lewy, I've been home sick for a few days, so I binge-watched the last season of SofA.
ReplyDeleteOh. My. Gawd. I'm pretty sure I'm traumatized for life. I didn't see any of that coming.

DeleteFeel better lr. Jax did what he had to.
Oh yes, I know he did lewy. I felt like I was on his dad's bike with him, arms outstretched, flying. The crow flies straight.
DeleteSofA is truly outstanding, and I'm glad I finished the series. :)
