Bill Barr Is Right. That’s Why He Terrifies the Left – Crisis Magazine

Why did Barr give such a speech in the first place, Krugmann asks? It was (he posits) to distract people from impeaching Trump, which is what any normal person would be doing on any given day unless they were distracted. On the other hand, why does Krugmann raise the subject of evolution and Darwin, neither of which appears in Barr s speech, unless it was to distract from the contents of the speech? He may have seen this as necessary to get people s attention back to where it belongs: impeachment.

At the Huffington Post, Mary Papenfuss says, The speech revealed how deeply the top lawman in the nation is tied to his Catholicism. Oh, no! A Catholic tied to his Catholicism? What kind of Catholic would that be, according to her? One who lashed a recent New Jersey law requiring LGBTQ curriculum in public schools to support civil rights, she explains. Catholicism and human rights must be immiscible, because surely people possess a civil right to annihilate the moral foundations of society the children be damned! How else are students to learn that they can put their genitalia wherever they want (or lop them off)? What would freedom mean, if not the freedom to do that?

I don’t know where Bill Barr gets the energy, but God bless him.
