I am posting this wherever I can. Something has crossed my tolerance thresh-hold - and it is the press's sycophantic coverage of the pope's U.S. visit.

What tipped me over the edge was the nerve of the ******* to presume to preach TO THE WORLD about human rights!

Hey, Poop. Talk to us again when there's a popess. Let alone a woman priest.

Pity no-one thought to invite him to visit the FLDS Ranch.

Any concerns that you might have mellowed with age, have been assuaged, Babs.
Good to see you here, as feisty as ever!
CNN's coverage of the visit is particularly cloying.

You thinks they're bad, check out EWTN.

You thinks we watch EWTN?

I thoughts maybe your wife did, Frank.

Well, I had never heard of EWTN, and I see it means Eternal Word Television Network. I went to the website. Oh man ! I could get sucked in there, it's freaky!

Now personally, I think a little balance is in order here. You guys need to watch John Stewart's opinions of the media coverage:

Even benevolence doesn't sound good with a German accent

We were very disappointed that Gordon Brown didn't get this response from any of the media

You do realise that he was in the US at the same time as the Pope? Maybe not.The BBC asked the Press Office of the White House who it was that represented the US in meeting Gordon Brown when he arrived at the airport. There was a pause followed by 'How are you spelling that name?' Oh, dear. It looks as though our Prime Minister has work to do.

It shows the level of the man's planning that he chooses to arrive at the same time as the Holy Father .
