If a Christian is one who turns his slapped cheek to the
slapper for more roughhouse, the American male is no Christian. We are more
like Lafcadio Wluiki, the hero of Andree Gide’s novel, “Lafcadio’s
Adventures.” Lafcadio keeps a small
knife handy, and whenever he is insulted, he stabs himself in the thigh to
memorialize the insult. Forgetting is forgiving. We are not braggarts. An
Ahmadinejad here would be laughed to scorn. But we know how to nourish
scorpions in our hearts. That we do well. And when the time is ripe, BANG goes
the stinger.
Steve Hilton , a Fox News commentator who over the weekend had connected some Burisma corruption dots, had this to say about Connecticut U.S. Senator Dick Blumenthal’s association with the tangled knot of corruption in Ukraine: “We cross-referenced the Senate co-sponsors of Ed Markey's Ukraine gas bill with the list of Democrats whom Burisma lobbyist, David Leiter, routinely gave money to and found another one -- one of the most sanctimonious of them all, actually -- Sen. Richard Blumenthal."
