Ambassador Says Pope Francis Will Urge U.S. to ‘Open Doors’ for Immigrants
Breitbart - Big Government ^ | 8-29-2015 | Dr. Susan Berry

Posted on 08/29/2015 8:26:44 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

The U.S. ambassador to the Vatican said that during Pope Francis’ visit to the United States next month, he expects the Pope will urge the U.S. to embrace its history of welcoming immigrants.

Ambassador Kenneth Hackett said the Pope’s immigration message will be important as lead GOP presidential contender Donald Trump has called for a border fence between Mexico and the United States and the deportation of millions of illegal immigrants, the Associated Press reports.

“I think he’ll call us to continue to engage with it (the world), don’t throw any walls up around our nation, don’t revert to isolationism,” he said. “We are a nation of welcoming people, so that’s where I think he will put his attention.”

In addition to immigration, Hackett says Pope Francis will likely wish to discuss income inequality, family issues, and the environment while he is in the country.

"Pope Francis will likely wish to discuss income inequality, family issues, and the environment while he is in the country."

Along with a host of other issues about which he is both naive and ignorant.

We already have a wide open door. It's them breaking out the windows and knocking holes in the walls that concerns me.

He keeps this up and the prediction about him being the last Pope just might turn out to be accurate.

First, he should go and lecture those countries whose people feel compelled to leave in droves.

This liberal politician, disguised as a “Pope”, should keep his nose out of U.S. politics. I wonder if Soros wrote a bunch of big checks that were dropped off at the Vatican prior to Conclave.

Banish the Swiss Guards, also, since he doesnt believe in guns.

you first Mr Pope!

The day the Pope opens its doors to the homeless and lets them sleep on the floors of the Vatican, then I will start listening to his lectures to us about who we should let into our house!
