2. It seems that these acolytes of the New Right or post-liberalism (I’ve seen both used and we need to settle on a label), are largely pre-Vatican II Roman Catholics. We know Roman Catholicism had been driving a few of the Supreme Court justices for a couple decades. The close alignment between an organized religion and a political movement is discomforting in the extreme. We recall how people worried in 1960 that Kennedy would be taking orders from Rome. Liberals of the day fought back against the bigotry of those attacks. But now we are seeing something different. I fear the sectarian battle that seems to loom on the horizon.
We relaxed and now it time to ring the alarm bells again. These cretins didn’t have Rose Kennedy saying that “those to whom Much is given, much is expected.” Hope it’s not too late to fight back. And I thought it was just crazy chump. The MAGAts think they will be part of the ruling red hats, but they will just be the new slaves
wow, yeah. a hairshirt might look very becoming on Vance. and the little whip thing those guys carry would feel nice in ANY hand bringing it down on ANY part of Vance's anatomy.
I saw an article last month or thereabouts on Vance's "conversion." it wasn't your usual "I'll go to the priest in the corner search and go on from there. it was "I'm gonna go to the most famous Catholic intellectuals [an oxymoron, perhaps?] I can find and get the most "elite instruction" available in my generation." what a prick.
this stuff about these scumbags knowingly pushing a dangerous lie in Ohio and ruining the environment in what looks like a nice town for god knows how long has been anatomized by many other people much more competently than I could manage. is this as low as they go?
I must have read the same article. Conversion @2019 as I remember. Guess he wants to play with the big boys. I want to see Miss Sassy Vance go down in flames. Those poor residents. And they just won’t stop. And North Carolina? Dear gawd.
All too many of let’s say ‘Kennedy Catholics’ are now part of the Opus Dei programmed right wing practitioners supporting white nationalism and the subjugation of all those not ‘like them’!
Catholics have seemed to have always had divided loyalties. And the ones I know seem to think they have dibs on heaven. Lots of surprises coming up, I would guess.
Two random ideas:
1/ Vance smells a bit like Aaron Burr, yes?

Me too.

Wow, powerful, scathing!
Opus Dei anyone?

Tis is all his desperate way of not being "Hillbilly white trash," which is what he is and what he hates, which is why he wrote that book.
He and Trump share somewhat aligned backgrounds . Outside looking in.

And they have a solid Majority on SCOTUS, thanks to the talking Mango
