Pope Francis on Thursday urged the U.S. Congress to reject a "mindset of hostility" on immigration and to recognize people who wish to move to the United States as people who are trying to improve their lives and those of their families.

They are here to perform an “act of love” on the United States, just as the sodomite priests did by buggering the choir boys.

‘on the outer Capitol balcony, Boehner looked unhinged with tears and uncontrollable emotion. What is wrong with him to totally break down in virtually all poignant moments?’

Boehner started crying while doing an interview with a golfing magazine. There was nothing poignant going on. His weeping jags are unhealthy. And to think he’s the Speaker...

LOL! A golfing mag interview? Incredible. These idiotic breakdowns fuel the rumors of a drinking problem.

“Must be smashed.”

Probably so. Sid Blumenthal is the Witch’s personal slime ball, but one she expects to get things right when he’s giving her the private scoop on important people. If, with his contacts, he says Boner’s an alcoholic, then Boner is one.

Dear pope,
There are many ways to improve your life
Invading another country to live off their welfare system is just one option

No abortion

No homosexual immorality

We needed Moses, not Francis

Carve? Or do you mean CHOP? As in innocent Americans heads.

We can just say separation of Church and state just like the leftist scum always do...AND CLOSE THE BORDERS ANYWAY! :-)

Pope John Paul II grew up with firsthand experience in Communism.
Pope Francis wants the world to experience Communism firsthand.

I’m from Boehner’s home town. He’s a graduate of Moeller High School, a Catholic parochial, and an excellent school that’s part of their excellent system. Around these parts, I imagine getting the Pope to respond to an invite is the ultimate of feathers in one’s cap. Boehner has won bragging rights at all the local bars and country clubs.

He’ll probably even have a festival named after him some day. All that brought him to tears, I suppose.

The Vatican isn’t a political organization. It is a sovereign state. The pope is the equivalent of its king, elected by representatives called cardinals.

Election of the pope (and cardinals) is, in itself, a political process, and they tax the dickens out of their adherants, but our nation can’t tax another sovereign state or its tentacles. We don’t tax mosques, even though they bow to Mecca.

What we’re watching this week is akin to the Queen of England making an extended visit, except that rather than being a political ally, her nation were a religious one. And she preaches to us.

It’s amazing to listen to Francis pontificate (pun intended) on science, given the Catholic Church’s stellar record on that subject (sarcasm intended).

Nice man. He needs to stick to theology.

Did the pope hide his crucifix during this speech?

With this pope I’m starting to believe the prophetic warnings about this being the last pope.

The pope needs to go back to the vatican and open up it’s gates to hundreds of thousands of needy immigrants.

We’ll see how that works out.

Perhaps the Pope would gain some insight.

By all means, let’s zero out the defense budget and increase taxes 300% and see what the net immigration to the US is in 10 years. The US will be a 3rd world country and tyranny will be worldwide instead of in isolated countries as it was 8 years ago before Obama took over. What a clueless BOZO this pope is!
