I know that mine didn’t.The Deacons Bench
Uber-traditionalist Cardinal Raymond Burke ordained three new deacons for the Institute of Christ the King at their seminary near Florence on January 30th.
You can see more snapshots and learn more at the New Liturgical Movement website. A cappa magna was there, too!
Meantime, want to sample something 180 degrees from the above? To get an idea of just how wide-ranging our Catholic liturgy can be, check out this report from CNS, with an audio dispatch from Barb Fraze, sharing some of the jubilant bongo-banging mass of Kenya.
Further proof, if any were needed, that it’s a big church.
He didn't clarify in the comments if he intended it to be an "insult" or not(or maybe just a jab). The Institute requested he do the ordinations in the old rite and provided for him vestments. Should he have said no? I think the term "uber-traditionalist" would be in the same spirit as calling the opposite a "liturgical hippie." Of course I do call people liturgical hippies(and don't necessarily see anything wrong with jabbing those we disagree with), but the point is I didn't know Deacon Kandra was against tradition.
... Kandra also encourages us to pray for the devil?

No matter what anyone calls Cardinal Burke, it seems that the Church (comprising both the hierarchy and the laity) is extremely supportive of what he is doing. The good deacon should look in his own comment box if he doubts this.
I have always been perplexed by the term "uber" for use in Catholicism. How can one be OVERLY Catholic?
No kidding. Like embracing the whole deposit of faith is somehow not normal.

Yes Badger, it's normal - or should be. Unfortunately, it is not as common as it used to be...
