VATICAN CITY (AP) — President Barack Obama sat down with Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican on Friday for a meeting in which frank but constructive talks were expected between two men who agree on helping the poor but disagree on abortion and stem cell research.

MY GAWD- look at those tree trunk thighs. She gets bigger every day.
U.S. President George W. Bush (L) poses with Pope Benedict XVI (C) and the first Lady Laura Bush at the Vatican Garden, in Vatican, 13 June 2008. George W. Bush was given a rare treatment during his visit to the Vatican, as Pope Benedict welcomed him at the Vatican Gardens, an area where popes pray privately and only particular guests are allowed to vsit it EPA/FILIPPO MONTEFORTE
After looking at this outfit closely, I agree with another FReeper who said her “veil” looks like the bathroom shower curtain. I guess lace was too feminine and “traditional.” The other photos don’t show just how horrid this outfit really is (black is definitely slimming from a distance). This looks like a crepe shift with matching coat over which she layered a satin blouse and patent belt. I say that because it looks like the black skirt and coat are the same shade of black, but the blouse is a different shade. But the coat isn’t even the right size! Look how the shoulders are falling off!
MOBama is just a few steps away from the full burka
Oh, no! A black version of the white blouse from the Europe trip in June and that danged boob belt again!!!!!!!!!
yep, I recognized the blouse right off that bat, it’s as ugly in black as it is in white.
I am starting to wonder if she is pregnant.
Just as I thought! There’s the dress without the blouse over it! Looks like she’s holding the coat...
Wow, that dress is too tight and the slit in the skirt is all wrong, that is a very cheaply made dress IMHO
Check it out, that slit skirt is the one she met the Pope in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pope: "Lucifer, we finally meet face to face. I've read so much about you and your work. You are a challenging adversary I must say."
So inappropriate. It almost looks like it ripped and given how tight that skirt is it may have done just that!
Women are not to wear slacks. Black is the color. Arms are to be covered and a head covering is worn . . . traditionally a mantilla.
Yeah . . . the head covering's a bit much. Seems she always has to take everything to an almost ridiculous level.
But, hey. The arms were covered and she wasn't wearing multiple pastels. So, for that I am grateful.
Re: Pic in post 95.
Like I’ve said: She takes everything to a riduclous level.
Perhaps the acts of another Pope will be illustrative:
As he entered St. Peter's Square to address an audience on 13 May 1981, John Paul II was shot and critically wounded by Mehmet Ali Ağca,[5][11] a trained expert Turkish gunman who was a member of the militant group Grey Wolves.[105]Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_John_Paul_II--SNIP--
Two days after Christmas in 1983, John Paul II visited the prison where his would-be assassin was being held. The two spoke privately for 20 minutes.[5] John Paul II said, “What we talked about will have to remain a secret between him and me. I spoke to him as a brother whom I have pardoned and who has my complete trust.″
