by the way the U.S. network commentators are trying to turn the Conclave into the Pope-lympics? When the cardinals were lined up in front of the Bible to take the oath, they'd always break away with a stats screen when the Americans took their turns.

frenzy. US Catholics don't pay attention to the birth control edicts, think women should be ordained; why the media obsession when no one gives a rat's patootie? Have they done the 'sequester' to death so we're not going to notice when they deal the final blow to those luxurious, budget burdening 'entitlements'?
