I'm watching the coverage of the announcement of the new pope…the first American one, no less. I won't pretend I understand all the significance of this. I'm not sure I even understand why so many people are so happy about there being a new pope at all, regardless of his nationality. I mean, it's not like they were going to leave the position unfilled. Still, it's nice to see so many people so excited about someone who stands for peace and love.
I haven't yet seen the inevitable offensive statement from Donald Trump yet but you just know it's coming. Can't wait to see how he makes this all about himself and spins it as something that reflects well on him.
