"Ohh, Tidings of comfort -- and coy"

The unredoubtable Clayton Emmer over at Weight of Glory has a clever "subtext" analysis of a recent article in The Tidings. Most of you don't know that The Tidings is the weekly rag put out by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, aka the chief vehicle of puff-pieces by or about Roger Cardinal Mahoney, who, at press time, is still the cardinal archbishop of LA.

But Clayton's funny commentary nails exactly how I feel whenever I bother to read too much loopy leftist propaganda: so earnest; so spirit-of-Vatican IIish; so vapid; so lost.
