Right-wing tyrants have a history of playing us for suckers: South Viet Nam's Diem, the Shah of Iran and Chile's Augusto Pinochet. Now add Ferdinand Marcos.

Each, for a different reason, seems highly improbable. Someone even dropped the name of the Cardinal from Lyon Philippe Barbarin to my colleague Jordan Bonfante, who promptly looked him up in the Vatican's Annuario Pontificio, to find...
