Perhaps the most amusing thing about this article as I read it more fully is its complete misinterpretation of the Carlist motto: Dios, Patria, Rey, Fueros

Apparently "God, King and Country" is suspicious when it is said in Spanish instead of English.

And Fueros is the most interesting - it means respect for the rule of law as enacted by local communities: i.e. subsidiarity or federalism.

The Bourbon monarchy in Spain stood for an all-powerful nationalist state which controlled the Church and overruled all local communities.

Opposing the Bourbons was apparently madness when the Spanish did it, but heroism when the French did it.

Interesting.

You can pretend that somehow "the left" is misinterpreting this. Or you can do some research. There are in fact Roman Catholic who are monarchists.There is one in this forum as a matter of fact.
I personally know a few here in D.C.
