Chris at Calling Rome Home has a link to a video clip of William Donahue on The Colbert Report. Check it out.

There are awkward moments in the interview but they both make some good points.

I disagree with Donahue when he says that anti-Catholicism comes only from the Secular Left or that conservative, Evangelical Christians are amiable to Catholics. My experience has been just the opposite.

Further, I enjoy reading Garry Wills, even if I have to wince when I do it. Sure, Donahue's general assessment of "Lapsed Catholics" is consonant with my limited experience.

The ruler shtick is completely tired and doesn't resonate with this post-VCII, public-school girl.
