The Kerry communion drama goes on...
"Last week, a defiant note sounded from Kerry's campaign headquarters: 'Rome may not be thrilled with the Senator's position on some social issues," said an adviser, "but the Pope doesn't have a vote in this election.'"
"Last Sunday, while campaigning in Missouri, Mr Kerry preferred to miss a Catholic service rather than risk a confrontation with the formidable Archbishop Raymond Burke of St Louis."
Instead, Kerry opted for the somewhat less-than-formidable Charles Street AME Church in Boston, where he put his injured right arm to good use by, among other things, receiving communion:
"[He used] his right arm to shake hands, take communion and hold the Bible. He also used his left arm for some handshakes and to wave palm fronds during the service."
Such is our 'believing and practising Catholic.'
Meanwhile, speculation begins about Kerry's plans for Easter.
