Orthodox Archbishop Clement of the Ukraine stood in front of a military base to put his body between his people and the Russian invaders. A man of courage and integrity.
The Catholic church had leaders like that once. People like Bishop Hughes of New York who led the Irish workingman in the fight against the government in the 1800's. He was the type of man who would be out front protecting our values and our faith. Not the milquetoast types we have today. Who can't even stand up to a thug like Andy Cuomo who says there is no place for observant Catholics in New York State.
I salute Archbishop Clement. I will pray for him and his people. I don't think there is much that the US can do for the people of the Ukraine. We are led by a freckles and foolish coward and there is nothing to be done. People will die. Freedom will be extinguished. At best we could offer sanctuary to those who flee the destruction.

Putin has been pimp slapping Obama for 6 years.
I knew he was mixed, but freckles?
"Freckles" is the best autocorrect pun I've heard in a while.
You don't suppose that Troop made it up though..
Hey all of my idiotic misspelling are planned for comic effect.
That's my story and I am sticking to it.
Of course Obama has freckles. He looks like Dennis Johnson. Except most likely in the Johnson. Just sayn'
Waiting for Putin to ship an order of Chicken Kiev to the White House....
I lost my freckles on the way to total fecklessness.
Say that five times fast and you win exactly nothing.
But you retain PRIDE.
That was the deal the Old Knickerbockers offered the Irish sandhogs who never did get around to building the 2nd Avenoo subway. Instead they took over Tammany Hall and screwed everyone else Hurrah Hurrah.
I wonder where freedom will spring from a hundred (or two or three) years from now?
Yeah, that was heartening. Even if depressing.
If that makes sense.
There are priests like that, but the hierarchy does not reward them.
