Detain her in the basement of the Vatican until she completes an equivalent number Hail Marys to the number of $ in the bailout/stimulus/etc. scams!

After the General Audience, he greeted Pelosi and her entourage and publicly reminded her of this fact and her duties. I don’t know if another meeting is planned.

Now wouldn’t Nancy’s footprints leave burn marks on the floor of the Vatican, or because she was invited in, she can now freely suck their blood at night?

Excommunicate the witch and make an example of her.

Follow up by excommunicating Teddy and Joe Biden.

Once excommunicated, Teddy will have to repent if he wants absolution before he dies.

I don’t expect any of these closet atheists to take excommunication seriously, but their constituency might.

I think the rules are, once she's invited in, you're pretty much at her mercy.

I will pray for the Pope.

Doesn't matter. She's a Dem. They say anything they want for political expediency and NO ONE holds them responsible. She knew what the Church’s position was on the beginning of life. It was just inconvenient for her so she LIED. Move along, nothing to see here.

Pelosi puts her liberal beliefs above her religion.

The Catholic Church still excommunicates right? Why not do an on-the-spot excommunication right there? A good ‘ol, “I cast thee out!”
