Isn't It Wonderful?!

I think that it's just thrilling that Pope Francis feels that the illegal aliens (excuse me...undocumented Democrats) are noble pilgrims embarking on a journey to a brave, new world, and that Bishops should encourage their priests and flocks to welcome them with open arms. His Holiness was a bit light on the details, however. I don't believe the he mentioned how many of them would be continuing on to Vaticanus and how their transportation was to be paid for. Further, he must have forgotten to detail exactly how the Papacy was going to take on the support for those who choose to remain here, paying for food, housing, healthcare, education, etc. In addition, how is the Holy See going to take on the responsibility for the further criminal escapades and mischief the a segment of these people will commit?

But I suppose that His Holiness and Our Holiness will have some secret meeting to work out the details.

~Sigh~

Isn't it just wonderful?

    Pelosillyni calls it zero sum gain. NOW that comment makes sense and I thought it was smoking and inhaling all this time.

    Thanks for the "excuse me . . . undocumented Democrats," SaltyDog. It was the first time I enjoyed a good laugh today.

    he came here on p.o.p.e. airlines which fly's close to god and his favorite song is "oh how i hate to get up in the morning" by lazarus and the up risers.
    Ayn Rand said in 1980 when the pope was here the americans love celebrities.

    As one of the moochers said, "I just want a piece of the American pie." What's going to happen when the pie is eaten up! Well, I think that we all know the answer to that....we'll all be equally miserable.

    I really like your way with words. Undocumented Democrats are they Humanoids in training?

    Question? Will the meetings include 'side deals.'

    BTW, instead of the usual "We are going to do something that isn't going to make a difference" stuff , I found this in my mailbox from John Boehner this morning...

    ... What is really important in DC is the photo-op where RINOs get to have their picture taken up on the podium, next to the pope! How could I "not" want to watch?

    From the article:
    ------------------------------
    As Francis became more emphatic in pleading the cause of immigrants, bishops leaned forward and listened intently. ...

    “The Church in the United States knows like few others the hopes present in the hearts of these pilgrims,” he said. “From the beginning you have learned their languages, promoted their cause, made their contributions your own, defended their rights, helped them to prosper, and kept alive the flame of their faith. Even today, no American institution does more for immigrants than your Christian communities.”
    ------------------------------

    It’s true. It used to be just the Catholic Church, now it’s all of them. The article continues:

    ------------------------------
    He said accommodating immigrants isn’t always easy at first. “... I am certain that, as so often in the past, these people will enrich America and its church.”
    ------------------------------

    Yes, it’s not always easy being enriched by some of today’s immigrants: http://ImmigrationsHumanCost.org/text...
    The point is not that all Third World immigrants are violent criminals. The point is that a much higher percentage of them are violent criminals compared with the percentage in Galt’s Gultch Online. As you increase the percentage of Third World immigrants, you increase the per capita violent crime rate.

    How about a debate between Pope Francis and Donald Trump. Since the Pope gives most of his U.S. talks in Spanish, Donald Trump could say to him Vamoose!

    " But I suppose that His Holiness and Our Holiness will have some secret meeting to work out the details."

    Congress will unanimously pass a law approving in advance anything Obama wants to agree to while they all insist it's not a treaty. He is our own infallible pope.

    Religious mysticism is not "as valid or invalid as any other belief system", i.e., philosophy.

    To more than A quarter of the world, the Pope speaks with the voice of God. If this is what these people truly believe, I certainly have no objection; it's as valid (or invalid) as any other belief system. Catholics believe, for better or worse, that the Pope's preaching 'ex cathedra' (that is, in matters of Catholic dogma), he is infallable. Again, if that's what they choose to believe, so be it. Where I have a problem is when the Pope more or less says, "I was talking with God last night, and He said to tell the Americans to take in all of the muslims, Mexicans, Guatemalans, and whomever else in the world wants to go there, feed them give them houses, etc., and solve global warming while they're at it.". And that, my friends, is effectively what he's doing and trying to do it under the auspices of speaking in God's name. This will not end well for us.

    So very true.

    People make life decisions based on their beliefs, whether grounded in truth or delusion.

    Unfortunately, many of these decisions affect more than themselves.

    But of course, people look at us with the same concerns.

    It really doesn't matter what you or I think about the Pope. What matters is that a very great number of voters in this country do care, and that can have an enormously deleterious effect on our country.

    I really don't care what the pope says.

    The last thing we need is a religious marxist, turning all the catholics into looters too
