Does Obama also think the Pope is a soulful messenger of the sanctity of unborn life?

One of the tactics of psychopaths is to attempt to fill their empty souls with the virtues of others to make themselves “appear” to be virtuous themselves.

What does Ali-Bama think the pope would say about his boyfriend Larry Sinclair and his attempting to destroy marriage with his “change of heart” on queer marriage?

The Muslim in chief is not fit to shine the shoes of the pope.

The Pope has come out with a neoSocialist message. Barry just loves that!

Don't know why you'd be surprised.

The Pope bashed capitalism...why wouldn't Obama embrace that?

You’d think he could start (charity towards the poor) with his own family. But he’d rather take your money and spend it. Isn’t that the definition of generosity?
