Ha....Rush just expanded his audience by one Pope.

[raybbr]

Rush will be unlistenable tomorrow. He’ll spend hours talking about how he doesn’t like talking about himself while playing cuts of people talking about himself. Now, we’ll get to hear him talk about the Pope talking about him while not talking about himself.

“The Marxist ideology is wrong. But I have met many Marxists in my life who are good people, so I don’t feel offended.”

I am sadden to read that

[max americana]

Ask this Pope Dope where the church donations come from.

[hosepipe]

What good about any marxist?....

Unless you ignore the sedition, and treason to take over your existing government..
and ignore the totalitarian aspects of marxist/socialism that go together like oiled gears..

To even “BE” a Marxist shows you have nasty tendencies..
and are quite stupid historically.. economically and religiously..
Just BEING a marxist marks you as an evil son of a bitch..

Even IF you deny being a marxist while being a marxist like most do..
Roman Catholics having a STUPID Pope is not a good thing..

"The promise was that when the glass was full, it would overflow, benefitting the poor. But what happens instead, is that when the glass is full, it magically gets bigger nothing ever comes out for the poor. This was the only reference to a specific theory. I was not, I repeat, speaking from a technical point of view but according to the Church’s social doctrine. This does not mean being a Marxist.”

So the church's social doctrine is not Marxist, but rather Occupy Wall Street?

[Revolting cat!]

A “Marxist” is a person who has studied Marx and his followers, including modern academic Marxists, and follows their teachings with full awareness of doing it. On the Internet, a fountain of worldly wisdom, “Marxist” is everyone who doesn’t agree with you, something like an “idiot”. In other words, “Marxism” is used as an ignorant insult by, uh, idiots.

Obama may be for all we know an unconscious Marxist, clueless dilettante Marxist, who we know admitted to associating with Marxists at the university.

In Matthew 25 we have the parable of the Talents wherein the quest for prosperity is praised and honored. “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”

The timid and afraid who do not seek to prosper have what little they have taken from them and given to those who have.

I’d love to hear the Pope discourse on this part of Jesus’ teaching

[Telepathic Intruder]

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s goods. There are no special cases in which it becomes OK.

[what's up]

“trickle-down theories” which assume that economic growth, encouraged by a free market, will inevitably succeed in bringing about greater justice and social inclusiveness in the world

So what is this "social inclusiveness" he speaks of?

Does he want the poor to be included in Wall Street cocktail parties?

The Pope is using "social justice" buzzwords. He's a leftie.

[Jack Hydrazine]

Collectivism by any stripe is wrong, Pope; even your version of it!

[Candor7]

The pope smokes dope.

[what's up]

is that when the glass is full, it magically gets bigger nothing ever comes out for the poor.

Well, this is a blatant falsehood. I hate to call the Pope a liar but...

Everyone knows that when tax revenues increase because of prosperity the poor get all KINDS of freebies.

Not to mention the giving to charity that takes place.

The Pope is engaging in class warfare. Not nice.

[DoughtyOne]

So we can add the Pope to the list of people who think men get rich in a vacuum, the life of no one else improved during the process.

We can add the Pope to the list of people who think the wealthy put their money in a dark room, and that it is shielded from helping anyone else ever again.

We can add the Pope to the list of people who think that if one man has wealth, there must be people who are broke so he can remain wealthy.

Yep he believes Marxism is wrong, then spouts it’s leading tenets.

Shame on the Pope. He should know better than this.

[Sacajaweau]

Sorry Pope....we know trickle down works. Who the hell do you think is paying the bills for about half the usa populations and millions of people around the world....Yup...us darn capitalists. China sure isn’t doing it.

[Revolting cat!]

I don’t know about the Pope. I know however not to listen to the subliterates who don’t know the difference between “its” and “it’s”.

[HarleyD]

I’m beginning to believe many people simply don’t understand they’re really are supporting Communism including many who vote for the Democrats.

[miserare]

The Pope is not infallible when speaking on matters of economics.

This Pope, in particular, seems downright ignorant of the subject.

I agree with Rush.

[Redmen4ever]

The Pope is either ignorant or a liar. His demonstrably incorrect statement that the poor do not do better with the “trickle down” theory should cause him to repent of his evil ways and apologize to those he has accused of being the new tyrants and maybe even resign.

LOOK THROUGH THE TELESCOPE; SEE THE MOONS OF JUPITER!
