“They don’t want to sit here and hear a foreigner tell us how to handle things ...

The RW base is nothing if not predictable:

"Damn foreigners! Especially those who dare to tell us we are not treating 'OTHERS' well enough. It makes no sense to have one OTHER (a 'foreign' pope) telling us to treat other OTHERS (foreigners) better.

We are Americans, damn it! We can treat anyone however the hell we want to treat them. Working WITH the rest of the world is liberal 'political correct' run amok. Working AGAINST the rest of the world is what strong, patriotic, sovereign conservative Americans are all about!"
