Bush And Benedict
Pope Benedict XVI became only the second Pope to visit the White House, and he gave a speech about the purpose of his trip and the importance of democracy being informed by moral values. In attendance was, of course, Bush. The President must have been extremely impressed by the Pope's words because right after Pope Benedict concluded his remarks, Bush leaned over and said, "Thank you, your holiness. Awesome speech."

Watch the video below :

Giving your rich buddies a massive tax cut, $1-trillion

Starting you own unwinnable war in Iraq, $3-trillion

Getting to stand next to a guy in a white robe in front of a confederate flag on the whitehouse lawn, Priceless!

Hate to dissapoint, but that's NOT a confederate flag...

...althoug­h one seems to be embedded in the top closer-to-the-pole quadrant of a flag that also contains broad blue, white, and red horizontal bands.

Even if was a State's flag, it's still placing the Stars and Bars

inappropriately & intentionally at a very choreographed event!

One has to wonder what genius placed Mississippi's (a state with a very shameful history that still clings to the stars and bars...an insult to Black Americans and a symbol of slavery) flag in such a prominent place. If Miss wants to be viewed as anything but a cultural back of the beyond it needs a new flag.

Not only do we have Dick Cheney telling our Senators to "Go Fuck Yourself",

They're now so brash, we see their Flag of Dixie on our White House steps.

We know the current Pope was the last Pope's 'Darth' & instructed American

Bishops by snail mail, to hide the problem priests and avoid public charges!

We know the Pope had Nazi ties that for some, runs for through generations!

Now they are editing the news to avoid showing the small crowds & the MSM

was calling it a "magnificent turnout" & piping in a louder audiences cheers!!

Who can't see now, that the Brave New World has not arrived in Technicolor!!!

ST2P.

Sorry, I should have edited that better. For that matter, I have no proof that the

cheers were not authentic, but the parade shots were obviously formatted by

Big Brother and the Fascist Film Framers. ( missing comma, double negative)

My mouth has filled with vomitus.

It really is the end of civilization, the "boy Nazi" pope with our national idiot gibbering in valley-boy ("awesome") in front of the racist Southern flag.

It couldn't be any more blood-curdling, unless they were served "Mrs. John McCain's" stolen cookies.

Don't forget that B...B....B­....Bushem­ada and B...B...B.­..Bennie (and the Jets) have something in common...p­ersonal and family ties to the Nazi's. Herr Bennie was a Nazi jugend, and in a way, so was Bushemada. His Großvater Prescott was a Nazi supporter from way back...eve­n before Bennie became a Nazi Jugend. He and his partner's (among them E. Roland Harriman and W. Averell Harriman) support of Hitler won them considerable profits, and charged for violations of the Trading With The Enemy Act in October 1942...wel­l after WW2 was underway for those who aren't into history.

Those charges got their financial holdings in the United States seized and held, until after the war. Amazingly, even after being publicly revealed as a Nazi collaborator, Prescott Bush managed to become a two term US Senator between 1952 and 1963. How did he do it? Media control, that's how. How else could a Nazi supporter become a US Senator, than with total control of the US media...no­t alone mind you, but with considerable help from numerous quarters that would have wanted this Nazi in the government. Say, the CIA for instance..­.who are known to have protected and used Nazi war criminals after the end of WW2. And there is clear evidence out there of Junior's Dad having a long history with the CIA. Sordid shit to be sure...but happily a nice connection for Junior and Bennie to reminisce about!

It's really the end of the world when somebody views St. Andrew's cross as being racist.

I think the Confederate flag was there to remind people that Obama is black. Sort of a Rovian subliminal thing and Hillary probably put them up to it.

Uhhh, you could also see, Florida's. Unless it was Mississippi/Florida day, I'm assuming all of the state flags were behind them.

Since my parents decided to baptize me Catholic,I have to say I now see why I'am agnostic,for a pope to visit a so called leader of a nation who should be up on charges of War Crimes ,and to legitimize this regime by the people who still follow what the pope say's ,I'm glad I don't believe in this mythical being ,and the book of fairytales.

I must correct myself here, though I don't think my original post got past the content censors so it probably won't matter but....

I had thought at first that the picture of the Pope and Bush in front of the Confederate flag had been doctored. But actually it looks like they're standing in front of the state flags of Mississippi and Indiana. The Mississippi flag is red white and blue stripes with the stars and bars in the upper left corner. That's the part we see the most of in the picture. It still looks like a guy in a white robe and the President standing in front of a rebel flag, though, which is probably how it's intended to look. Good thing for the Pope he wasn't wearing the pointy hat...
