It had to come - the wisdom of Father Greeley. Click here for the original column in the Chicago Sun-Times, and better yet, click here for the National Review's Ramesh Ponnuru's dissection. To get a feel for the column, all you have to do is read the first line: The national cry for revenge is shameful. And then there's: Will mass murder satisfy American blood lust? As Ponnuru says, I must have missed those speeches. This isn't about revenge. It's about protection, so Fr. Greeley can keep writing his columns and making millions from his ghost-written novels.
