THE POPE'S SPEECH: I WONDER IF THE....

....same political analyst vetted it for him as did the Prez's Niger "enriched uranium" speech.

Of course it was an accurate quote and of course Popey is an academic but one would have to absolutely tone deaf in the current context not anticipate a storm of fecal matter after reciting the quote. Where the heck was the Vatican's chief political officer when they needed him (I'm pretty sure it's a "him".)?

Isn't it amazing what happens when things are taken out of context?
It is my understanding that the Pope was using this 14th century writing as an example in a presentation intended to try to help us resolve the divide and apparent hatred between the christian and muslim religions. Unfortunately, one side got upset and actually proved the position expresed by the 14th century author by killing an innocent Catholic nun.
How in the world are we ever going to be able to live together with this kind of acting out by these folks?
Does it really make any difference who we elect as the national leaders of our country as long as this kind of conduct persists?

Don't look at Mohammed pictures, my protestant buddies tell me there's a 600 foot Jesus near Tulsa, OK on I 44, that you can see for a fee, go there!
