The Kerry discussion just a bit. I was just about the post something, when cs and Patrick Sweeney started an echo chamber of my thoughts down below.

It really is time for John Kerry’s bishop – O’Malley, and perhaps even McCarrick, while we’re at it, to join forces and respond to this guy every time he makes one of his misstatements about Catholic teaching or trumpets his faith the day after he’s skipped Mass to go to an AME church.

If anyone at all had nerve and a sense of humor, it could actually be entertaining. The idea, in my mind, is not to threaten and be Big Brother. It’s to point out idiocy when it appears – and if it appears under a particularly pompous, self-righteous guise, all the more reason to avoid self-righteousness ourselves.

So, I’ll volunteer. Bishops are invited to fund “KerryWatch.” I’ll edit and add my moderating tone. Curt Jester and Mark Shea can be content editors.

If there’s not enough money in the diocesan coffers to fund us all, perhaps the company that makes Botox can kick in some dough.
