That’s what happens when a pope messes in politics. This lesson should have been learned back in the Middle Ages, but apparently we have to make the same mistakes over and over.

Not surprising that he will use the Pope to spread his coercive redistribution of other people's earnings ideology!

At a National Prayer Breakfast, Obama arrogantly misappropriated Jesus's spiritual challenge to individuals, claiming those words as validating and authorizing abusive use of coercive power by himself and his cronies to "take" from some in order to buy votes and accumulate more power to themselves--all in the name of "helping" the beneficiaries of such unconstitutional "takings."

Hear Samuel Adams:

"Is it now high time for the people of this country to explicitly declare whether they will be free men or slaves. It is an important question which ought to be decided. It concerns more than anything in this life. The salvation of our souls is interested in this event. For wherever tyranny is established, immorality of every kind comes in like a torrent, it is in the interest of tyrants to reduce the people to ignorance and vice.” - Samuel Adams

IMO it's much,*much* different for a Pope to "peddle" wealth redistribution than it is for the likes of Osama Obama to do it.My understanding of Christ's teachings (10.5 years of Catholic school) clearly shows that charity was at the top of His list of vital responsibilities for His flowers...along with several other things.I have no problem with any Christian clergyman reminding me of this...particularly if that clergyman doesn't mention government,or taxes and doesn't express support for Marxist politicians while so doing.

Being told by Osama Obama & Pals,OTOH,that I "didn't build that"....well,I think I should take my blood pressure meds before I continue.

The Pope's only worldly role is to remind secular authorities of their moral duties.

It is considered his "indirect" authority in the affairs of the world.

His direct authority is only within the Catholic Church.

Hitler and Stalin were big on wealth redistribution

I would love to go back to the 1800s and tell Marx, the man who disparaged and mocked religion that his biggest champion in 2014 is the Catholic Pope.

I’m sure Karl would get a kick out of that.

I’m sure it would be too much to ask Obama and the Federal Reserve to stop the Financial Repression which keeps my savings earning next to nothing while transferring $500 billion, mostly to the biggest banks, from savers like me and from pensioners? Obama and friends are some of the biggest reasons why our distorted crony capital system is boosting those who control the financial system while squashing the little guy through financial repression, central planning, market distortions, unwise and excessive regulations, favoritism, uncontrolled entitlement spending, etc., etc., etc...

They are burning the house down while promising that they and only they can and will put the fire out.

This one’s easy.
Obama does not have the moral authority to lecture anyone about anything.

I am all for it let us start by rechanneling the wealth of rich Liberals to the rest of us.
