4. Yeah
I'm an atheist but I love Ben Sargeant and I loved Lady Bird and I can dig the metaphor. It is a lovely tribute.

We get the Statesman but I had not seen the cartoon. Then when I heard him refer to it...I went and got it to share with you guys.

Ben Sergeant can be witty and biting and wonderful politically and he can be touching and poignant.
When Jim Henson died he did a cartoon of Kermit with a tear rolling down his Muppet face. I just cried like a bitty baby.
