Good choice in Rome today.
Ratzinger is an outspoken friend of American christians and even said, that Europe can learn from the American example. Ratziger was silent on the Iraq issue because he didn't want to argue JP2's position against the war. Insiders believe that Ratzinger understood and approved the reason for this war. Ratzinger is a true conservative. Another nail in the coffin to the liberalist agenda.

Wow! That makes me hope even more that Benedict XVI lives to be more than 100 years old, even though Laz won't get another shot for a while. But who says Laz won't live enough to see Benedict XVI live to be over 100 years old?

There are some causes, and some wars...no matter how people detest war...that have to be fought. Otherwise we would be ruled and overrun by evil tyrants and dictators who are not rational and one cannot deal rationally with irrational people. Hmmmm....I believe (LOL) there was even a war in Heaven, too. (smug smirk)
