The righties are blaming Obama for the pope's resignation.

This morning I heard a report of the pope resigning, I wondered how long it would be before the right blamed Obama for it. A co-worker just told me he heard on "World News" or some stupid place, that the pope is resigning because Obama wants to give school children birth control and no religious training. I just laughed and said "I wondered how long it would take".

They're nuts!

considering he's a half-black Kenyan anti-colonialist who got into college and law school only because of affirmative action and who has to read everything off a teleprompter.

blaming the Popes resignation on all the sexual abuse cases within the Catholic church? Oh I see the sexual abuse of children doesn't bother the righties, only birth control.

Twisty turny beams of antipopeness that snake round buildings and up frocks and down chimneys and through radiators and eventually right up Pope Ratso's nostrils! That's the nature of the awesomeness we're dealing with here. There is no escape from the ObamaBeam.

Quick, to the Obamamobile! Hey, cool word.
