Weigel Unfair to Trump
Dear Editor: George Weigel’s column (March 12) “Resisting the Demagogue” adds to the frenzy of media slander of Donald Trump, largely orchestrated and financed by the internationalist monied elite. They fear Mr. Trump because they haven’t been able to buy him out like the rest of the establishment politicians.
Disrespect for Bishops
Dear Editor: In mid-March, NET-TV (Currents) reported that NY Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie refused to meet with Catholic bishops. Does this surprise anyone including the acquiescence of the bishops? One does not criticize a black Democrat if his policies are at variance with the teachings or interests of the Catholic Church. There are few Cardinal Spellmans who took on Mrs. Roosevelt or Patrick Scanlan who took on everyone who attacked the Church.
Polarization of Politics
Dear Editor: Reading recent letters to The Tablet, I noted the tendency to separate Catholics into two political categories, conservative or liberal. I suggest that this division is not appropriate since many Catholics simultaneously share both conservative and liberal ideas.
Misinterpreting the Constitution
I am constantly amazed at the misinterpretation that people make about the Constitution and the founding of our country.
Sentiment Over Substance
Bad manners originating from one Republican candidate should not upset us more than numerous American jurists exercising their commitments to progressivist crimes against humanity.
It’s Not Obama’s Fault
I beg to differ with George Weigel’s column (Resisting the Demagogue, March 12) that the Obama administration’s fecklessness has caused the dangerous world we live in.
An Easter Message
We feign pacifism while our faith is being trampled.
Catholic Award to Biden?
Regarding “Biden, Boehner to be Honored at Notre Dame University Graduation” (March 12), it makes me wonder how much thought went into selecting those who receive the school’s Laetare Medal.
Great Retreat in Bay Ridge
Many parishioners of Our Lady of Angels, Bay Ridge, participated in a Lenten retreat.
