CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY SEPTEMBER 29, 2020
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S THIRD PICK FOR THE SUPREME COURT, AMY CONEY BARRETT, WILL BRING OUT THE ANTI-CATHOLICISM OF THE LEFT IN WAYS WE MAY NOT HAVE SEEN BEFORE. SOME OF IT MAY BE CLOAKED, BUT SOME WILL BE RAW. WE ARE ALREADY SEEING CRITICISM OF BARRETT AND HER HUSBAND FOR ADOPTING TWO HAITIAN CHILDREN. IMAGINE.
WHILE THE LATE RUTH BADER GINSBURG WAS PRAISED BY SOME DEMOCRATS FOR INTEGRATING HER JEWISH FAITH WITH HER WORK AND JOE BIDEN HAS CLAIMED HIS CATHOLIC FAITH HAS SHAPED HIS LIFE, THESE TWO ALWAYS CAME DOWN ON THE SIDE OF ISSUES DEAR TO SECULAR PROGRESSIVES, SUCH AS ABORTION AND SAME-SEX MARRIAGE. JUDGE BARRETT IS A CONSERVATIVE, SO HER FAITH IS TO BE CRITICIZED.
SHE IS BEING SLAMMED FOR BELONGING TO A BIBLE STUDY AND PRAISE GROUP. SOME DEMOCRATS ARE SMEARING HER BECAUSE OF AN ALLEGED ASSOCIATION OF THAT GROUP WITH THE HANDMAID’S TALE, A BOOK AND MOVIE ABOUT WOMEN WHO ARE TOTALLY SUBMISSIVE TO THEIR HUSBANDS.
PEGGY NOONAN OF THE WALL STREET JOURNAL BLEW THAT APART IN HER COLUMN LAST SATURDAY. BARRETT IS LIKE TO BE NARROWLY CONFIRMED, BUT DEMOCRATS WILL DO ALL THEY CAN TO LIE AND DISTORT HER RECORD, HOPING IT WILL HELP JOE BIDEN WIN THE ELECTION. I’M CAL THOMAS.
