Said by Pope Francis to an audience of immigrants, with a wag of his finger.

In other words, God is not a Libertarian or a tea-party member.

He spent quite a while talking about everyone's responsibility to care for each other. I hope he does the same thing when he addresses Congress in a few weeks.

This is the first segment of the show. The quote above came from a later part, but all the segments had this in common: the Pope interacting in a loving way with people on the margins of American society -- low-income students from an urban school, immigrants from Mexico, and people from homeless shelters.
