Bush seems like he is about to cry watching the Pope try to read this. It's sad.

Bush looking good. The Pope's performance is a bit shaky.

Lots of pained expressions as Fox panned the crowd.

The Pope can't even turn the pages. He has an aide do it. Parkinsons is really taken a toll on him.

Finally the old guy has something good to say about America......and we know of course, the President knew ahead of time what the Pope's script.

I cannot even watch it...it is so pathetic.
I am praying that President Bush is given the strength to sit through this horrible scene.
