The first symptom of being a lib is denial. Despite all evidence, they don’t believe they are lefty loons.

A left-wing is as a left wing does. Even Forrest Gump’s mother knows that.

Yeah, he somehow thinks “The Church’s Social Doctrine” sounds better.

To its credit, the Washington Post editorial board, of all things, has a commentary strongly criticizing the Pope’s visit to Cuba where he was quite buddy buddy with Castro, praised his system and had no time for the dissidents treated like dirt by the Castro brothers. This Pope, I’m sure, will have no such hesitation in harshly criticizing the horrible American society where we have a Constitution, free speech and a per capita income that is hundreds of times higher than that of Cuba.

Leftist is as leftist does.

But I don’t think he’s lying. I think he’s clueless about economic systems and how they work.

To a Leftist, Leftism is “moderate” or “centrist”. Everyone else is “far right”.

This guy is like a Bond villain. He pretends to be a man of God while he keeps the real Pope locked up at the Vatican.

If the Pope actually said “We’ll be judged on how well we cared for the earth” as a commercial playing here in NY alleges, then he is a flaming, off the reservation loon.

Meaningless.

Obama claims he’s a centrist. Or a conservative.

Thanks but no thanks. I will interpret you by what you say and do and do not what you claim you are. And what you say and do reveals you for the Communist you are.

Whatever happened to separation of Church and State?

It's very uncomfortable, the way Pope Francis has interjected himself into the governance of other nations.

JMHO

Rush had a caller who nailed it. The pope is a Peronist. A Fascist.
