What a day this has been! Amanda Marcotte of the Guardian chiming in with a stupid column about the death penalty in Texas and little Dr. Tim of the Telegraph chiming in about American Catholics. It must be a full moon.

For those who are intellectual Catholics, please read this column carefully. Little Tim often gets his facts wrong and sometimes makes things up out of whole cloth. I’ve complained about him to the powers that be at The Telegraph but they, of course, ignore me.

FWIW, I'm pretty sure he got the part about the hair right.
