Pope arrives at White House

[PennsylvaniaMom]

They must have Val Jarett on lock down.

Did anyone else see the usual (frantic) looks around by Secret Service? You would think that the crowd on the Lawn would have been triple screened.

Maybe because of ALL the “cultures” represented there?!?

The choir is the reason I didn’t change the channel yet.

It is painful that no opportunity was taken to take on the specific forms of ungodliness in our own nation; everybody just wants to feel good and make others feel good onscreen. We needed an admonishment and that definitely didn’t qualify.

I’m all for improving our stewardship of Earth, but that was a letdown.

Has the wookie kept her paws to herself?
Remember when she crushed Queen Elizabeth?

The Pope’s Socialism tour continues — Cuba, White House, Philly, NYC — All third world socialist hell holes.

[kjam22]

CNN says there were 11k people there at the white house, on the lawn, for this event. I gotta say it.... here it comes.... that’s less than Trump draws ....

[JimSEA]

I do think they are politically and ideologically aligned. Global climate change is being touted by both as a weapon against capitalism.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

(PaMom swatting the low hanging fruit!)

As The Donald would say, he’s “HUUUUUUUGE!”

[kabar]

LOL.... Pope starts with “as a son of an immigrant family, I am happy to be in this country that was started by immigrants”

No, America was started by British subjects. They were not immigrants to a new country.

[Califreak]

Probably media.

[kjam22]

LOL.... yeah....

Flew in on a jet built with capitalism
Burned burning fuel recovered and refined by capitalism
Staying in a residence capitalism built
Wearing clothing produced by capitalists
Eating food capitalism produced, made and transported
Using dishes produced by capitalism
Riding around in a pope mobile made under capitalism and fueled by capitalism
So he can wave to his followers who were transported by capitalistic means
Who will take countless selfies using technology developed by capitalists

...and the he will condemn capitalism as an affront to the poor.

[bray]

Is that Pope Marxist asking the question?

[silverleaf]

11k people and how many of them faithful Catholics?

[PennsylvaniaMom]

The choir was amazing.

With all the other “points” touched upon, could not a line have been inserted (I was trying to listen closely!) ABOUT THE UNBORN!!! About the SANCTITY OF LIFE?!?

My rant off. Maybe he will zing Congress.

And I have to add I cannot stand Chrstiane Amanpoor.

[silverleaf]

Immigrants who came over the Bering Sea land bridge

[kjam22]

CNN says everyone there was there by invitation....

[bray]

How many are even Christians? Zero, only atheists, homosexuals, anti-Catholic and Mooselimbs are allowed.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

Guest list approved by Val Jarrett...

I guess she is hunkered down in the Situation Room...in charge and all.

[FreedomGuru]

Hey Pope how much have you contributed to Global Warming by coming to America?
Hey Pope do you realize your are meeting with thieves, liars, and possibly one of the Antichrists?

Where are all the libs complaining about the separation of church and state?

[kabar]

These "immigrants" didn't found the USA.

If you want to be more precise, you can say we all came from Africa.
