One must truly admire Kathleen Kennedy Townsend’s frequent, determined, and overreach-ing efforts to be taken seriously. First it was a failed bid for elected Democratic office in the state of Maryland where no Democrats have lost an elec-tion as far back as Spiro Agnew – until Townsend came along. Now she strides fearlessly into the world of theology as she pontificates in Newsweek magazine that ” Obama represents American Cath-olics better than the Pope does.” Yes, Kathleen, there is a Pope and he represents, not American Catholics, but rather Jesus Christ.
