A NOTE ABOUT THE POLITICAL JUDAS ARTICLE

A NOTE ABOUT THE POLITICAL JUDAS ARTICLE

Several readers have commented on the closing sentence of the “America’s Political Judas” article as being somewhat confusing.   Yes, there was a misspelled word in a puzzling closing phrase.  The intent was to paraphrase a portion of a poem from the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam which I cite below:

“The Moving Finger writes, and having writ,

Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit

Shall lure it back to cancel half a line,

 Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.”

History is history and like the moving finger writes on….

Sorry about the confusion, but this stuff is written by a 91-year-old.   I will try not to make mis steaks in the future!
