I have no great affection for the politics of this Pope, but he represents a strain of thought worth understanding--as well as 2000 years of Tradition worthy of respect. Or have we as conservatives thrown over even this last vestige of what it means to be a conservative?The Conservative Wahoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17818674434286683162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-79140745586951603362015-09-01T08:29:18.368-04:002015-09-01T08:29:18.368-04:00School takes care of the kid so the parents don...School takes care of the kid so the parents don't have to.Bandithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02334898079341026590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-7982398790350906422015-09-01T08:24:30.966-04:002015-09-01T08:24:30.966-04:00I think seeing the spectacle of Pope Francis addre...I think seeing the spectacle of Pope Francis address Congress would be a great learning experience, and that Warren was a good grandmother here.

And shit like that, Poindexter, shit like that. Isn't it ironic? No, in fact it's bathetic.<br /><br />Politics is downstream from culture. If culturally we accept the hegemony of the gutter, all our political striving will be in vain.

I have wonderful memories of going to see both Pope John Paul II I(Boston, 1979) and Pope Benedict (NYC, 2008). Something is not quite right with the current pope.

Obviously the average school day isn't that important, but neither is the average papal pronouncement. It might be different for a Catholic, but I don't think Warren is one, nor am I.seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00843345930627586208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-75995527928479077642015-08-31T21:53:07.620-04:002015-08-31T21:53:07.620-04:00I took my kids to the Pate automotive swapmeet.

I see no leftist downside with her reasoning. From a "rightest" perspective, I wouldn't get up from folding my socks if this pope came right up to my front porch and I wouldn't call of my dogs from chasing him off my property either so no matter what one's affiliation, going to see this pope is a waste of one's time.
