I said the fact that Kerry was given communion meant that nobody thought it worthwhile to worry about the matter. To me, that means . . . more of the same--i.e, lip service to a culture of life and fawning deference to the partisans of death. So what exactly about the installation ceremony was supposed to make me think differently?
maybe Kerry told them he wouldn't go to Communion, then he changed his mind.
"Nobody", meaning the Papal Nuncio. That assumes the Papal Nuncio recognized John Kerry. The Nuncio has only recently arrived in this country. Are you suggesting that he should have been given 'flash cards' with the faces of unrepentant catholic sinners and told not to distribute communion to them?
