Chris Matthews had that Bush basher Fr Greeley on last night and they were obviously pained at the thought of another "conservative" as Holy Father. Chris mentioned Cardinal Ratzinger's membership in the Hitler youth without bothering to explain it was compulsory, and a cheap attack on him. Greeley said even this would not affect the cardinals who planned to vote for Ratzinger, as if they were somehow soft on naziism. How absurd.
We were just watching the EWTN coverage, and Father Newhouse (a good friend of the new Pope) predicted that you'll hear the words Nazi and "hardliner" slung about by the press in the days to come. Chrissy was just getting a head start. What else is new?
Just one more reason not to pay any attention to the MSM, especially when it comes to religion -- the water of truth just doesn't mix with slimy liberal oil.
