Has he too much of the drink taken?

Writer and Catholic priest Andrew Greeley, that is. What other explanation is there for this unhinged screed - which is in defiance of how exquisitely careful McCain has been to not bring up race, while Obama has used it at every turn, from preemptively accusing his opponents and detractors of racism, to using code words like “hoodwinked” and “bamboozled.”
Bizarre:
McCain increasingly acts like an angry, befuddled cancer survivor and treats his rival like a field n—– who is just barely human. He does not talk to him, will not shake hands with him, will not even look at him, walks behind him when he is speaking to distract the audience. Obama’s languid, legs-crossed security on the bar stool must infuriate McCain all the more. Who does he think he is? He has no right to run for president and McCain does. Has not he served his country all his life? Has not he traveled the whole world? Has not he been involved in every major event of the last four decades? Does he not know everyone who is worth knowing? And what does his rival have to offer besides intolerable arrogance? Black skin and glib language? Is not Obama the one who is playing the race card? Therefore he must be exposed as what he is — a pushy fellow with a glib tongue who has no right to challenge a great American like John McCain.

I’m Catholic, and Andrew Greeley is an embarrassment to humanity, not just the Catholic church.
