Gee, there is no anti-Catholic bigotry among the full moon over the border set, is there? If you tell me you are Catholic, many people do hate their own. Do you tell your supervisors that you have such fantasies? First, you suggest the pope sneaking into America illegally and now to molest children.

The answer to this new silly hypothetical question with no factual basis (which would be excluded by any court) is: yes, I would still vote not guilty, since, at least as to JP II or any other pope in my lifetime, I would not only NOT be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt of his guilt, but I would be convinced beyond ANY doubt as to his innocence. Exclude me from the jury but, if I am on it, first things first and no one, even if unofficial militia is guilty unless beyond a reasonable doubt.

I am still waiting, unless I missed it, for your answer to my previous question as to how many moments it would take Dubya to see to it that any request for US citizenship by JPII be granted summarily. He would do the same for the Dalai Lama.

He did no such thing. He offered hypotheticals to counter your absurdities. Lets see now, you've painted your opponents with the racist label, impunged their motives, tried to change the subject, questioned their legality, acted indignant for slights that you in turn have offered, erected strawmen, put words in other poster's mouths and now have twisted the arguments of the other side. Yep, you're using just about all the tried-and-true propaganda techniques, but, quite frankly, you're not very good at it. You have all the subtlety of a fart in a bathysphere...

Ta ta, I'm outta here, I'll be looking Monday for your cites and legal arguments based on either the U.S. or Arizona codes as to why the groups are illegal. Not that I expect you to provide them...

Look, you stated that if the Pope entered this country illegally (committing a criminal act, breaking the law, ect...), you would vote him not guilty.

Fine. They I asked you if the Pope was above the law. Again what crimes can the Pope commit and not be found guilty of.

Yes it is all hypothetical, but it is not silly. The question still stands. What crimes, is the Pope allowed to commit?

You stated that the Pope is above the law. So how far above the law is the Pope. What crimes can he commit?

I did not answer your previous question, because you know as well as I, that Congress would grant the request ASAP.

But that is not the point. The point is, you stated that the Pope is above the law, and I state he is not.
