Were it not a Christian cemetery

Well, Bensenville Village President Soto is the latest lilly-livered official to roll over for King Richard of Chicago. Now the pollution-belching airport will intrude farther into our suburban neighborhoods.

The only holdout is the appeal of condemnation of St. Johannes Cemetery. Hopefully, the much-touted separation of church and state will keep them from desecrating hallowed ground. The sad thing is that if this were anything but a Christian cemetery, it would not be an issue. They wouldn't even attempt to dig it up; the outrage would be too great.
