...Couple those old Grumpy Gus sentiments with the pope's frequent proclamations in favor of leftist economic policy (see Monday's leaked "climate rant" from the pope) (HEAVENS to Betsie!), and here's the creature that this guy appears to be:
A social right-winger and an economic leftist. MY GOD, the worst of all possible worlds!
At least the modern extreme incarnations of the American democrat party and gop-er party still occasionally spout a thing or two that I can GOD DAMN agree with from time to time.
The pope on the other hand? Well, he's gots that big fancy joint at the Vatican. Here's hoping he resolves to stay there most or all of the time going forward. GOOD GOD.

[Postscript: I don't mean to be all negatory over here about ol' popey, who looks like the product of a harmless pre-gay marriage civil union between Stan Laurel and Alan King. Compare that with the "evil incarnate" look his predecessor (Mr. Benedict) had going on -- equal parts Emperor Palpatine and George Soros. Now that was one scary pope-dude, for CHRIST SAKES!]
