Palm Sunday
The Word of God the Father,
the Son who is coeternal with Him,
whose throne is heaven, whose footstool is the earth,
today has humbled himself by riding into Bethany on
a donkey.
So the children of Israel praise him,
bearing green branches and crying:
“Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is he who comes,
the King of Israel!”
-from the Byzantine Vespers,

A Jewish civil rights organization and some Alexandria Democrats have criticized Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (D-Va.) for suggesting at a recent party meeting that a major American pro-Israel lobbying group will raise $2 million and “take over” efforts to unseat him next year.
David Friedman, D.C. regional director for the Anti-Defamation League, said Moran’s remarks were divisive and intended to isolate and exaggerate the role of his Jewish critics: “This only confirms what we already knew: that Jim Moran is a bigoted man who perpetuates age-old canards and stereotypes about Jews.”
