Obama is traveling to Rome in March to meet with the new pontiff. In a sit-down interview, CNN’s Jake Tapper asked if daughters Sasha and Malia would be coming along.
(snip)
(CNN's Jake) Tapper asked if Obama planned to talk to the wildly popular pope “about the importance of managing expectations at all.”
“Well, you know, I have been really impressed so far with the way he’s communicated what I think is the essence of the Christian faith and that is a true sense of brotherhood and sisterhood and regard for those who are less fortunate,” Obama responded. “And my suspicion is based on what I’ve seen of him so far, he’s a pretty steady guy. I don’t think he needs any advice from me about staying humble.”

That statement is so dumb it’s actually clever.
Well, it would be clever if it was meant to be ironic.
Which I very much doubt.

I don’t think this needs a barf alert, more of a “don’t drink or eat, keyboard/monitor warning” alert.

Possibly the most arrogant thing I’ve ever heard uttered by a human.
He’s also confusing Christianity with Socialism.

I’m sure The Pope is happy that Obama approves of the job he’s doing. Is the man so oblivious to what he says and how he sounds?

Taking advice from Obama about being humble is like asking Bob Uecker for advice about hitting.

One should not be giving advice about places they have never been...lol
