From REUTERS, Pope Benedict XVI speaking in Washington DC lamented the "clear signs of a disturbing breakdown in the very foundations of society: signs of alienation, anger and polarization on the part of many of our contemporaries; increased violence; a weakening of the moral sense; a coarsening of social relations and a growing forgetfulness of God."
Is the Pope campaigning for Obama or what? Obama said something last week about alienation, anger and polarization and the self-righteous pundits will not let anyone hear the last of it. It was like he had made some kind or rivers of blood speech and even nice Hilary is now running an ad in Pennsylvania showing the man and woman in the street saying how offended they are and how out of touch the posh Harvard educated Obama is with ordinary Americans.
So what do you say about Pope Benedict then. Here he is echoing the words of Obama in talking about “alienation, anger and polarization” and I am sure the talk on Talk Radio in the coming days will be about how we don’t need no European coming to tell us anything about ourselves. Who does he think he is coming here and telling us about Native Americans having had a bad deal? Tune in to your local Talk Radio over the next few days and see variations of Godwin’s law at work. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
