Great piece in the Chicago Sun-Times by Neil Steinberg about Chicago’s Catholic Cardinal George lamenting that his bigoted stance on everything gay may ultimately lead people to call him a bigot. (Hey, it’s a step up from “pedophile enabler,” so maybe the Catholic leadership should count its blessings.)
It got me thinking of something I read the other day about the movie, Lincoln. Eric Zorn of the Chicago Tribune notes that the film’s director, Steven Spielberg, changed the names of bigoted southern Senators who were defending slavery at the time.
