...ideal is so far from the reality that the ideal can’t even speak to the reality,” Cahill said. “I’m not saying that Church doctrine needs to just capitulate, but those who are loyal to the tradition need to bring it forward in a more positive...
...Saporito: The guy was wooden, but he kept the ball in play, so to speak. He addressed all his constituencies - the public, the players, the press and of course his family.

Suzanne Curran, a Tea Partyer from Virginia, sounded as if she had stepped out of a time machine straight from a Perot rally when she said recently, "It's time that we speak up - we the people. We are the employers. All these elected reps are the employees. And we need to stop calling them officials, giving them more credit than is due them." (See pictures of the Tea Party tax protests...
