I mulled that over, and thought of the small, Catholic liberal arts college down the road from us where I teach a course now and then. So I thought I d call Dr. Laura with some positive feedback. I couldn t believe it when I got through, right away, to her screener. In our Irish family, the men have been from ten to twenty years older than their wives for several generations, and we ve managed to have happy, holy marriages. Thanks, I ll let her know.
Contemporary families do have to grapple with a lot of tough moral questions, no doubt about it.
But Dr. Laura s version looks just a little too much like professional wrestling to me. Christopher Manion, a founder of the political satire group the Capitol Steps, runs a background music production company in Front Royal, Virginia, and teaches political theory at Christendom College as an adjunct lecturer. He was at the 1960 Republican convention in Chicago, where, he insists, Nixon stole the nomination from Goldwater.
