Our local priests have talked of the necessity of liberation of a people under Hussein's repressive regime. I hadn't heard any of the Pope's comments on the war in Iraq but, knowing how the Polish people were so repressed, it seemed odd to me that he would make such statements against a war of liberation. NOW I know it was the liberal media putting interpreting (wrongly, as usual) the Popes true intention. So many who are prejudiced against the church in the first place are too eager and willing to believe the misinterpretations and lies that the media spews.

Great posts!!

The Pope's calls to prayer weren't good enough for the press, so they heavily pursued more fitting statements in hopes of satisfying their agenda.

I have also been keenly aware of the fact that here in America, as Congress was deliberating partial birth abortion, practically nil was written nor spoken on televison news about JPII's *unwavering and absolutely clear* PRO LIFE demands.

In this, I see the press' tactic of calling attention to one issue while deliberately ignoring another less speculative, true message or story.   Picture one hand overhead snapping fingers... the other left down continuing to do its dirty work; the media hollers and directs you to look at the snapping hand: "LOOK OVER HERE!".
