Fordham’s theology prof a winner. A Democrat, he reads the heart of his peerless leader. A great act if he could carry it off.

Not only that, he’s a juggler as too:

Dr. Charles Camosy, a theology professor at Fordham University and former board member of Democrats for Life of America [which is where the juggling would come in, not to mention
prestigitation
], praised Biden for attending Mass at St. Matthew’s Cathedral on Wednesday morning, along with congressional leaders.

The heart?

Biden’s heart, Camosy said, “is a Catholic one and a deeply Catholic one at that. His decision to pray with Leader McConnell before being inaugurated shows a deep commitment to the kinds of values we would expect from a son of the Church.” [Idea
being if you’re willing to pray with McConnell, you got it,
man.
]

Had advice for us:

Catholics, Camosy said, should seek to work with Biden on areas of agreement and hold him accountable [well!] when his public policies conflict with the teachings of the Church–including on Biden’s support for taxpayer-funded abortion.

But keep in mind . . . the heart!

“Happily, he [Biden] believes in his Catholic heart that abortion is always wrong,” Camosy said. “This is a foundation on which to build for changing his mind about public policy.” [Hey, you got the votes, you got the change.]

But whatever happens . . .

“There is common ground to be had on abortion, and we owe it to prenatal children and their mothers to seek to find it. No pro-lifer should allow their understandable anger and frustration to lead them to put castigation and vitriol before taking the chance to save lives,” Camosy said.

Agreed. Let us all agree: No castigation and vitriol. It’s a fall-back position for his colleagues.

Way to go, Joe, you old job-killer you!!

Biden Shuts Down Keystone, Kills 11,000 Jobs

What a way to start his presidency (Fox Business).

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he was “disappointed” but realizes this is part of what progressives demand in the name of climate change (NY Post).

From the Wall Street Journal: Mr. Biden is sending an early signal that the climate panic will trump nearly everything else in his Administration. The unstated but operative message from the Keystone kill is that he will use regulation and permitting to do the dirty work (WSJ).

Joe likes his finger in sooo many pies . . .
