of course, he may be against our fathers and mothers of liberty. He's yakking away about the french revolution and ignoring our little party?

So, does he want to return to the monarchy, a divine right of kings-god's chosen leaders? It also sounds like he's confirming the statement "religion is the opiate of the masses." That the "chosen" wealthy, elite can continue their corruption and greed grabs as long as the plebes know their place, and religion is the control mechanism.
