NSA Scandal: Obama Takes Pope's Confession
Big Peace ^ | 10/31/2013 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 10/31/2013 11:57:02 AM PDT by markomalley

The Obama administration has been accused of spying on Archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the future Popr Francis, "before and during the Vatican conclave at which he was chosen to succeed Benedict XVI," the UK Telegraph reports, citing the Italian magazine Panorama. The National Security Agency is alleged to have monitored the cardinals' telephone calls as part of a spy program targeting foreign leaders.

U.S. officials attempted to blunt some of the controversy surrounding these accusations by revealing that millions of telephone records had been collected by France and Spain and handed over to the NSA, the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday. However, that surveillance was separate from the spying carried out by the NSA against foreign leaders, which was revealed by NSA leaker and fugitive Edward Snowden.

Oh my godless one, I am heartily sorry for having offended thee. And I detest all my free thoughts and the just punishment your IRS sends at me. I vow with the help of they grace to think no more and to fully depend on thee.

And Pontius Pilot had spies listening to Jesus Christ. Kinda puts Obama’s penchant for washing his hands of all the scandals in his administration in a certain light.

Obama has the NSA and Obamacare ramping up to force us to divulge our innermost secrets.

And yet, we have absolutely no right to ask that the Lawless One show proper ID.

While America believes in the separation of Church and State, the Vatican does not.

In the dark recesses of the Vatican there are those who still think in terms of the return to world domination.

Spying is justified on theis small but powerful world government

The Jesuits and Opus Dei see you, and we know what you are thinking. Be afraid, be very afraid!

How many divisions, told Stalin to the Pope.

Obama is more like: I am your commander enlisted forcibly in my army, under scrutiny, and my NSA can look under your robe.

Will the Vatican and the world say something about this superchery?

Hmm.... I guess they do not want Obama and liberals ridiculed?

ah, there, they are making an antichrist for real out of him now...

The power of Obama’ indiscretions and using US technology to run around and do those “internet thingies” to world leaders is his force, I guess. Does the world really love such parasitic intrusion?

Sick.

They've also hacked Santa's account:

He knows when you've been sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good

Perhaps the spying was done to make sure the money SCJ Roberts got ostensibly for his Obamacare decision was actually deposited in the Bank of the Vatican, on Malta as I recall.
