Pope Francis and President Obama have both dedicated their lives to helping the less fortunate, and that commonality will be central to their meeting Wednesday during the pope's first visit to the United States, a White House spokesman said hours before Obama left to greet the pontiff as he landed at Andrews Air Force Base Tuesday afternoon.
"[B]oth men have talked, quite publicly, about their commitment to social justice," White House spokesman Josh Earnest said in previewing their Oval Office meeting scheduled for Wednesday morning. "And both men have dedicated their, not just their careers, but their lives, to that effort."
"Certainly the kind of commitment that we've seen from Pope Francis is unique and singular," Earnest allowed "but I think the values that both men live out have some common ground."

Well, he is the Pope.
Jesus told someone that to follow him he should sell all his possessions. From what I remember, the guy wasn’t too happy about it.
He also said something about what good is it having everything and losing your soul.
I’m not selling everything I own, but I try to be a good person.
The Pope kinda has to relate Jesus’ message, I guess.
I’ll bet Pope Frank has never rousted and run-off a park full of kids with cancer and their families because they were in his way.
So we win the biggest phony humanitarian gasbag award.
In both cases, this merits a huge barf alert.
would that be a HUGE BARF.....?
...../s
Jesus spoke in a hebrew idiom
I dont think Francis know jack about that nor does he care
who knew there was a SImpson Killer Bee?
Jesus was asking that the hearer..to CHOOSE....
choice was the KEY to the whole deal and remains so to this day.
Yes.
any thread that relates to one of these Panther WHizz Swilling RUBES or Rubettes ....demands a supply of the family size bags
¡Ay, ay, ay, no es bueno!
I keep forgetting that the pope is a White Hispanic....
How often does Pope Francis play golf, or visit Martha’s Vineyard?
That’s true. And he does lump all Americans into the same group. Greedy, bad.
I think he is under the illusion that we Americans are all millionaires, which the little guy in the “Quiet Man” said 60 years ago :)
It’s been believed for a long time.
This is how clinical narcissistic personality disorder looks.
Obama’s image belongs next to the definition of the malignant narcissist in ALL dictionaries and encyclopedias
One is the antichrist, the other, the false prophet.
Not much difference I can see. Both are socialist politicians from a rude background, who gained control of a powerful position, and then abuse every concept it stands for.
