Pix aside, the first lines of the AP story said all that needed to be said. The talks were described as “frank but constructive”. Anyone familiar with diplo speak, especially from the Cold War era knows that when the adjective frank is used the meetings participants barely agreed on what day it was. FWIW the haloed one’s only accomplishment was that he didn’t get the same treatment as Pelosi. And that’s because he’s a head of state and a non Catholic who is not constrained to live a public life in line with the teacings of the Church.
Thank you for posting Maggie.
I was so afraid she would walk in with huge flowers and full arms showing.
Even with the belt, at least she’s covered.
OK then, it`s settled unless I see the video.
OBAMA BOWED TO THE PROTECTOR OF MECCA AND JUST SHOOK HANDS WITH THE POPE !?
CONCLUSION: He`s muslim
Too much champagne and wagyu beef, maybe.
Oh no you didun’t.
OMG, this Sister Mary Michelle as FRUMP NUN! And she does not look too happy to be there. At the mosque, she doesn’t have to show up...
The black veil, however, appears to be first quality — quite lovely, actually, but doesn't represent the American Catholic tradition for normal use in church.
Regardless of what anyone thinks of the skirt, blouse, sweater and belt, I guarantee you that Pope Benedict couldn't possibly care less — it's the respect and the purity of heart he seeks. Fashion shows don't fit the life of a religious.
i know, i was holding my breath too, figuring she would not do the right thing/dress appropriately
At least she kept her hands off him. Maybe someone actually told her the truth. She is not on the same level as the Pope.
What is with those belts?
That looks so uncomfortable.
I can’t believe that Michelle dressed correctly!
Of course Obama doesn’t want any grief either since getting rid of religion as we know it is part of his plan. He can’t operate as planned if his wife is in there screwing things up.
Wonderful post. Thank you.
Tatt
Yes for once she dressed appropriately for a meeting in th Vatican. I don’t understand her love of those belts but atleast she made an effort.
I agree.
When I saw this thread I just KNEW I would open it and be appalled.
She (thank you Lord) got it together.
The veil is much more appropriate for Islam but at least it looks like an effort was put in. Then again I probably would have died of shock if she had worn a chapel cap or mantilla!
omg- what’s with the black veil? The bride of the antichrist at her first communion?
