And Her Husband Too
Does the CIC understand how wonderful it is that the Jewish husband of a Catholic wife even wants to have a talk at a Catholic bookstore? Look at this incident:

Of all the reasons to diss an inter-religious couple, Cokie's allegedly objectionable politics should not be one of them. They wrote a book about a successful interfaith marriage that has lasted through Republican and Democratic administrations. She recently bought, I am told the house her Congressional father built and she grew up in, and her neighbors love her.
This is a wonderful person.
Of all the people to throw under the bus of political correctness- holy help us! Everyone is talking about this and it isn't good PR for anyone- except maybe Cokie's book.
Did I mention both her mother and brother were Ambassadors to the Vatican? In an age when the Pope makes gaffe after gaffe jeopardizing the peace and inflicting strife in the tranquility of the Catholic-Jewish relations issue, Cokie is a model domestic peaceforce.
Couldn't you just have had her come talk about being married and not endorsed anything too controversial?
If the CIC won't invite her back I am going to find her another venue.
She has a newer book on "Ladies of Liberty" on women who have impacted the country. Get ALL her books.
