A few months back he issued a statement decrying the commercializing of Sunday and recommended that people spend that day with their families.

You'd think that liberals would appreciate having a major voice condemn commercialism and remind people that there are things in the world more important than shopping and TV.

But what do you think the reaction was? You get three guesses, and the first two don't count.
