God bless Casey for being who he was despite her views, upbringing, and attempts at abject control.
"Good lord, that is disgusting."
For those who haven't read the entire article, she was referring to her memories of him as a toddler who would clasp her legs from behind and kiss her butt. If my son had done that, you can believe I would have sidled out and knelt to hug him appropriately.
But back to the point, I think it reveals a great deal about her struggle to control his thoughts and her rage that he disagreed with her about the war. Thank God. May he rest in peace, his job well and faithfully done.
