And now he's the Pope!!!!! Oh horror of horrors, what will we do now?!!
Poor Katie Couric. Her colon must be in knots by now.
I know but the liberals won't like a conservative pope at the helm of the RCC.
The DUmmies are freaking out, calling him a Nazi. I guess the writer of this article isn't as well-informed as those boobs with Wesley Clark icons, huh? ;)
Sure is
THe fact the London Times puts out such stuff, requiring refuting; the fact it already started.
Wonder if there will be a special edition DUmmy FUnnies!

How dare you post the truth about Ratzinger! You must enjoy driving the devil worshipers nuts, LOL...
I wonder if he was Opus Dei's choice?????
The "Pope Benedict" name has an interesting history for today, as the previous Pope Benedict attempted to mediate an end to the horrors of the stalemated trench warfare of the First World War that killed an entire generation of French, British, Germans, and Russians.
A war that was only able to be ended by a mobile American Army, going all the way over to Europe to do what the Europeans themselves could not.
So such a Pope's name recognizes the current global war on terror, America's role, and what part the Church should play.
I know very little about Pope Benedict XVI, but judging by the way the Dummies are acting, it sounds like he is quite the conservative. Does anyone have any links that give details of his stance on abortion, homosexuals, and other issues facing the church?
Ugly & hateful commentary over there.....but then, that's nothing new.

Yes, he's in with Opus Dei.
Very interesting post, thanks for the perspective, hope you're right.
And John Paul, who lived under the Nazi boot, would not have trusted Ratzinger, had he believed he was a Nazi sympathizer. If Ratzinger were more liberal, you wouldn't have heard one word about his "alleged" Nazi past from the MSM.
FYI
I checked DU. The Nazi claim is their most popular one.
There's a lot on google about it already. Black Flag seemed to have a balanced look at the whole matter:

Hey - if Benedict XVI pushes forward that very important truth, he will earn a measure of respect from me... not that anyone would care. After all, that particular statement is the #1 truth.
