    A little left? Hell after today, he earned himself a lifetime VIP membership to the Bernie Sanders fan club, now about 1,000 strong, lol.

    In America, near ten thousand kids molested by Catholic clergy and the fuckers covered it up, all the way to the Vatican.

    "I realize how much the pain of recent years has weighed upon you, and I have supported your generous commitment to bring healing to victims — in the knowledge that in healing we, too, are healed — and to work to ensure that such crimes will never be repeated,” the pope said to loud applause from the bishops.

    But the Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests said the bishops had displayed “cowardice and callousness” in response to victims who came forward and they “hide behind expensive lawyers and public relations professionals” instead of fully confronting the scope of the problem within the church. Anne Barrett Doyle, co-director of BishopAccountability.org, an advocacy group that collects records on abusive priests from around the world, called the pope’s remarks “distressing and quite off-base.”


    Yes, he can get the fuck out now.

    In my lifetime, there has been JP Deuce who was charismatic and interesting. I don't think there will be another like him.

    Afraid a more center leaning pope might raise the price of rosary beads

    If that's how you feel you are so far on the right you are in the right field bleachers and the right fielder is about 150 yards from you.

    I wonder if you've ever had anything negative to say about the Catholic Church until a Pope comes along you don't agree with politically. Maybe you have, not sure.

    And you are a few miles left of left field. If you were watching a game in Yankee Stadium you would be in Chicago.

    He may be the Anti-Pope. How did he get Benedict to resign? Popes don't resign. They die. Might be the work of the Devil.

    He didn't get the other guy to resign, maybe Benedict just didn't get the little boys he was promised.
