But for 5-year-old Sophie, the moment unfolded as perfectly as it was scripted by members of a coalition of Los Angeles-based immigration rights groups.

They could have at least modified the plot line a tiny bit in this staged photo-op. Considering the track record of popes in the past 1800 years, they have gall imposing moral authority.

So how much money did it cost to plan this “spontaneous” event, pay for transportation and housing, meals, etc.....?

The left seems to be using children in there attacks. Clock Boy, Pope Girl, and all the kids that came across the border last year that will be wailing for their families to join them.. With help from the adoring press, seems to be working, too.
