Pope Exits Giant Airbus and Gets Into Tiny Symbolic Car

RUSH: Folks, have you seen, did you happen to see, have you seen the little automobile that the pope is being driven around in? I have not seen it. I'd heard that he was being carried or driven around in a tiny car, but I didn't think anything about it. I thought something like a Popemobile. So I'm watching the arrival at the White House today and I see this little Fiat drive up, and I said, "You've got to be kidding." And sure enough, the pope got out of it.

I mean, it was tiny. It looked like one of those tiny little PT Cruiser things. And it looked like the pope was in there pretty tight. He had some help getting out of the thing. He just flew from Italy to Cuba to here, circling over North Carolina for a half hour, 45 minutes, and to show up in this? Yeah, I know, it's a good thing this segment's over.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Yeah, the Popemobile is a Jeep, but not this limo that he's driving around in. I mean, they had the picture of the motorcade heading in from Joint Base Andrews into the city, and this little car that the pope is in is so tiny that it straddles the center line of the two lanes. Then the SUVs, the Suburbans and Escalades and whatever else they are, there are two behind it and two in front. So those four SUVs make a square, and the pope's little car there is in the middle.

That's how tiny it is. I read that it's a Fiat. I have a very low resolution picture of it so I can't find out the icon, the logo on the back of the car. It looks like it says Chrysler on it. Only it can't be a Chrysler. Did Obama sell Chrysler to the Italians? I know he sold Jeep to the Italians. I read that it's a Fiat, but it's just tiny. I don't know, it struck me because here's the pope on this giant Airbus A330 flying from Italy to Cuba, the United States, circling over North Carolina for a couple loops and then driving around in this little thing with the windows down to boot. It just looked different, and I know the pope's trying to make a visual impression here, not being ostentatious.

I’m looking forward to seeing him on the Bill O’Reilly show. Apparently, Bill has invited him to the show so that he and Bill can form a partnership to save Christmas. Bill has been saving it alone for several years now.

I hope much of America has doused themselves with Holy Water and hung up the strings of garlic.

Now that The False Prophet is amongst you.

[freedumb2003]

It was optics and greatly reduced my regard for the Pope.

Stunts should be below him. I guess not.

His “humility” is ostentatious.

Better that the U.S. is visited by Catholics rather than Muslims.

[Tau Food]

You’ve got that right. Personally, I can’t help but like the guy.

[Red_Devil 232]

Not watching one moment of this Communist pope on this visit to the U.S.A.!

[HandyDandy]

"Nobody can be more humble than I can!"

Maybe he's got a car deal with the "home team" in Italy.

I liked the 84 GMC pickup they used in Canada

I had a Fiat X-19. Looked great but there is a reason why FIAT=Fix It Again Tony.

They make cars like the built WWII tanks.

“Not watching one moment of this Communist pope on this visit to the U.S.A.!”

Me neither.

Thank-you for your service, by the way.

As a Roman Catholic, obviously I have no problem with my fellow Roman Catholics.

However I refuse to accept Francis, who I consider a Heretic and an anti-Pope.

My Pope is Benedict XVI.

Regarding Muslims, they only belong one place, in Muslim countries and nowhere else.

[Andy'smom]

I owned a Fiat, they are AWFUL.

You would probably call Jesus a communist to

[Kaslin]

Can you be a little more ridiculous?

You're acting like a ten year old.

[Kaslin]

What stunts are you talking about?

[painter]

As an a going Catholic I am inclined to be on your side!
