MGB:_A good civics class frees the mind. The activism of these students shows that at least some of them have read Noam, as well as their teachers. It is also obvious that they were not fed the usual southern trash of Confederate History.
Stiglitz is good. He likes his Chomsky too. For the next Secretary, I was thinking Bruce Bartlett or Michael Graetz for what they propose on Tax Reform.
It is good the Trumka-Tobin event is getting ink. FoxNews won’t cover it except to curse Tobin. I wonder if EWTN and LifeSite will add their usual snark?
An artist can certainly pay tribute to the thought and culture of the Church without believing. Aesthetics are about beauty and its individual perceptions, not universal truth.
Happy Anniversary Pope Francis, may your next five be as confounding to the enemies of mercy as the last five.
Also see the article by Chris Ladd on White Evangelicals that was pulled from Forbes. Also Corey Robin’s book on the Reactionary Mind. Trump is a feature, not a flaw, which is why so many think he is doing a good job, when objectively he is failing badly and heading for prison.
Bravo to CLINIC and Bishop Pepe on the latter’s retirement. This shows that while advocacy is important, direct help is essential.
