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.

Boehner weeping behind the Popester right now on TV. Must be smashed. What a maroon.

[tflabo]

“blind obedience” to this Pope. I’m Catholic and I’m not buying what he’s selling.

Ditto--- I have learned far more about spiritual matters from my parish priest than the worldy minded Pope. He's unimpressive and no godly leader like John Paul II.

[GraceG]

Because the united states apparently has not allowed any immigrants in...

The Bluer the country the more the population of immigrants

el Papa can kiss my arse!

[KittenClaws]

It is the illegal invaders that have a mindset of hostility.

The Vatican does not have the authority to tell me what to do or how to think - this pope needs to GO HOME!

[A CA Guy]

No hostility, build a giant wall with a smile on your face. 😀

[Salgak]

I’m sure he can haul a few hundred back with him on that Alitalia jet he flew in on. . .

Watching c-span,,,wondering if SC member Ginsberg has fallen asleep yet?

Never seen the Chamber so FULL...
This Nation is all about photo op’s...
This man is Leader of Catholic Religion and that should be his job.., not addressing other Countries on his beliefs..

[Will88]

Does anyone know whose decision it was to ask the Pope to address Congress, the first one ever to do so? I think those invitations have to come from leaders of the House and Senate, but haven’t heard how and why this Pope got this unprecedented invitation.

[dfwgator]

Then you pay for it, Frank.

[A CA Guy]

The Catholic Churc is dying and is looking to Hispanic migrants in America to fill the pews, so THAT is the Pope’s self interest regarding illegal peasant migration.

We can help by removing all social services for anyone who has two illegal status parents.

Is the Vatican knocking down its Great Wall to let in the Mid East Hordes?

* Or better, reject an evil communist posing as Pope. *

Reject a pope who is a liar and a hypocrite.

“Don't use fossil fuels, I need them all for my jet. Forget all about what it says in the Bible about lying, I like to stand on the same ground of my Muslim friends and use taqiyya when speaking about Climate Change”
~Pope Francis (paraphrased)

Ya gotta wonder why all of the extreme hard core Leftists and Communists love this guy.

[Scrambler Bob]

Your Holeyness?

Brains all leaked out?

[dfwgator]

Fine, no problem — but how about recognizing that we have immigration laws and maybe that people can’t break those laws without consequenc

That "Render Unto Caesar" thing.

[ScottinVA]

Keep looking. You’ll find them.

[CatherineofAragon]

Are you serious? Boehner is really crying?

Yep, he’s drunk, no doubt.

[Batman11]

“Great. We have a pope who thinks he’s a community organizer and a community organizer who thinks he’s the pope.”

and a new tagline is born......

Bravo!

[El Cid]

There are some here in FR with such devotion to this pope they believe blind obedience is the only acceptable response.

I haven't read any comments from any. I know there are some that grit their teeth, and don't write anything -- but I have yet to read any post that claims that because their 'head guy' said it, that they buy into it. Several comments that he is 'infallible' regarding comments relating to his religion, but not when spouting comments about politics and the economy.

[Jane Long]

FWIW, he’s getting slammed on Twitter. Lots of tweets noting the hypocrisy.

[ScottinVA]

Catholics do not have to have “blind obedience” to this Pope. I’m Catholic and I’m not buying what he’s selling.

I didn't say "all Catholics".. I said "some here on FR." And I'm glad you're not buying his noise.
