The Knights of Columbus -- the 125+-year-old Catholic fraternal and good-works organization -- is, it appears, in the minds of some U.S. Senators, an extremist and unworthy organization. Good grief.
Here are the written answers to questions from senators provided by Brian Buescher, who has been nominated for a seat on the U.S. District Court. Sen. Mazie Hirono asked (inter alia) if he "intend[ed] to end [his] membership with this organization to avoid any appearance of bias" (because the Knights took the "extreme position" of supporting California's Proposition 8 -- which, of course, was supported by a majority of the voters in the relevant election).
And, Sen. Kamala Harris asked if he was "aware that the Knights of Columbus opposed a woman’s right to choose when [he] joined the organization", as if there were something remarkable about the fact that the Knights have a position on the abortion question that is held by tens of millions of Americans.
The rapidity with which mainstream (even if minority) views are being re-cast as somehow disqualifying for public service -- or even public life -- is quite something.
They went after The Little Sisters Of The Poor. Now the Knights Of Columbus. Who is next, Jesus Saves?
Which makes me remember a bumper sticker in Boston that read “Jesus Saves, and Esposito scores on the rebound.”
Communists wallowing in communism. We just thought it was dead. Harris guarantees it is not. Thought Police are required. Guilt by association is key. Privacy invasion is a promise.
These unique serpentine pols need to be driven from any and all representation for their agenda— to fundamentally kill off the America we grew up in.
Being Knights apparently adds to our deplorability.

I’m getting really fed up with all the commies and their PC witch hunts.
It was an extreme position because it wasn't supported by the gay Federal judge who was Presidentacus of California at the time.
One Federal judge is worth 7,000,000 voting peasants.
Why do you think the Lefties were foaming like rabid dogs at the Kavanaugh hearings?
"I am Presidentacus!"
"No, I am Presidentacus!"
So good to see your reply!
I was a Charter Member of the only AOH in an adjacent county. (central NY)
The greatest (Irish Catholic, or otherwise) Fraternity EVER!
