Texas judge grants Pope immunity in sexual abuse cover-up lawsuit.

A document has tied the current Pope into a cover-up of the sexual abuse of three boys in Texas. Yet, a Texas judge says he's beyond the reach of the law because he's a foreign head of state.

Clinton did not receive immunity in a lawsuit because he wasn't a foreign head of state.

On the other hand, Saddam Hussein, the head of state of a country that DID NOTHING TO US, is now on trial for his life.

Does anyone have an explanation for these seeming discrepancies?
