That we actually get to see it for a change. Feeling guilty for racist history in America? Vote O'Bama, that's penance, contrition, and forgiveness all in one. I've never heard our priests give homilies like this... Stoke the fire higher, "Father" Pfleger.
We don't need to feel guilty for what happened in generations past. We don't need to purge the guilt from our souls for some ginned up ideologue with a messiah complex.
