The Pope's Visit: Shame or Disgrace?

As a former Catholic, I agree completely with this essay by Stephen Pizzo. The Pope's Visit: Shame or Disgrace? http://www.smirkingchimp.com/thread/14188
The cable news networks devoted far too much coverage to the visit of this man who tried to keep pedophilia in the church a secret...and who allowed buggering priests to switch parishes and continue their molestation of children. I turned off the TV whenever they showed anything about him, just as I do whenever the lying Bush comes on the screen. UGH! to both of them. I am sorry to see so many Catholics are fooled by his "Faux Holiness." Just my own opinion, of course.

EXCERPT:
The very week Texas officials were rescuing 400 kids from a Mormon cult that allows grown men to have their way with underage girls, the Pope got a total pass on his Church's own sins against the rights of humans.

But, clearly, if you're the Pope you get a pass for discriminating against women and running a well-oiled pedophile protection racket for decades. You can come to America and get royal treatment from politicians and the press.

Hell, no one less than the President of the United States himself picked him up at the airport!

Then again, why should that surprise me? After all, George W. Bush and Benedict have a lot in common. They both prefer to keep the wings of the human spirit well trimmed. (You can say that again!)
