They celebrate Jesus along the way.

With a word about trying hard.

She was benignly in his corner once, implicitly approving his wisdom and strategies. Now forget about that, as she uses her soft disapproval to chart his downfall and thinking no wonder. It’s Peggy-we-hardly-know-ye time, I fear.

And make what you will of this:

Meanwhile the president absolutely has to win on tax reform after his embarrassing loss on ObamaCare. He shouldn’t be in this position, with his back to the wall.

She considers him with back to wall. That says too much of her perspicuity, I say. I say he’s thriving. She doesn’t see the virtues of the sockem’-bustem’ which he represents. Fearless he is, plowing ahead, handling the media like no other, and un-smooth. For which she has no feel, apparently.

W, we hardly know you.

O, same old.

Losers.

Instead they slam him for his self-serving speech, merely to save his job, for instance.

He fought one kind of war, they fight another. Such a cadre.

. . . Or should feel shamed, by John Kelly’s statement defending Trump in his call to the grieving mother.

A horror story, start to finish.

About Hollywood as cesspit.

Project Truth catches fake-newsies once again.

Talk about your low-hanging apples. These undercover guys make it look easy.

A martyr to truth-telling.

New administration cracks whip.

Orthodox Catholics are facing “persecution” – and not from secularists, but from their fellow believers. That’s the startling claim made last week by Professor Josef Seifert, the philosopher and friend of St John Paul II. His remarks echoed some recent comments from Cardinal Gerhard Müller, who told the National Catholic Register that Vatican officials and university teachers were “living in great fear”. And Seifert and Cardinal Müller are only saying publicly what many will say in private.

In researching this article, I have heard from priests and academics on four continents who, as soon as I raised the subject of intimidation, immediately requested anonymity. Some referred to their need to earn a living or support a family. One professor quipped: “I am not ready for white martyrdom” – a theological term for the acceptance of great (but non-fatal) suffering for the faith.

Depends who has the whip hand, apparently.
