I knew you were a  Burke protege: your statement shows wonderfully the commitment to clarity he says he seeks.

But as we know, under the guise of asking for clarity, Cardinal Burke is really complaining about  content not ambiguity. He always has singularly believed in Canon Law 24.1, paragraph 7: "Two Plus Two Equals Four." 

When the Pope says "Three Plus One" or "Five Minus One" also can equal four, the good cardinal claims---in the words of Archbishop Chaput: "Confusion is of the Devil." 

As the laity's country-western song goes: "We forgot more than they'll ever know about love."
