The Pope's visit reminds of how much I miss John Paul THE FIRST

[BOSSHOG]

Only served for about a month. Immediately undertook a housecleaning of the Vatican corruption ergo his untimely demise. Pope John Paul THE FIRST would not have had Coffee with bush, I think he would have encouraged the Haque to chat with barbra's brat.

1. I think he was murdered, myself. Too liberal for the rest of the bunch. NT

2. I think there is no doubt he was murdered.

"In God's Name" by David Yallop, excellent book about the Pope and his short reign and the "mystery" surrounding his death. He described the movers and shakers in the vatican during Pope Paul VI's time in office, he might have been describing Al Capone's gang.

4. I miss what he stood for...and didn't learn a thing about him in Catholic School, btw

but found out when JPII passed.

I think he was murdered too.

6. I think it was 1978

Very bizarre. I woke up one morning and heard on the radio news that the pope had died (Pope Paul VI.) About six weeks later I woke up one morning and heard on the radio news that the Pope had died. That took awhile to figure out. If he had lived I believe JPI would have been the greatest Pope ever relative to peace, harmony, fighting corruption. I read his biography, he was indeed a very, very good man.

5. The way

I know of the man is the most damaging to this veteran:

bush, a man who deserted his military unit to avoid a drug test.

Then he spent the next 35 years fucking up everything else he touched, being cheered on to do so by the likes of hannity and limbaugh and other cowardly, ignorant, war mongering chickenhawks who have never done anything FOR our country.

Lordy those conservative values piss me way off.
