Disclaimer & comment rulesMacri seems to do a lot less sucking up to Francis.... take whichever interpretation you wish from that.
Feb 29th, 2016 - 09:31 am - Link - Report abuse 0However seems that Macri might finally stop the incessant visits by an Argentinean president to the Vatican. I'm pretty sure that Vatican with think twice before electing a non-European to the post again.
Pope probably begged him to chase after his friend Kristina's corruption and stolen loot.
Feb 29th, 2016 - 09:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0This turkey of a pope is out of his depth.
He needs to go back and burn some candles in church and shut up.
Wonder if he ever brought up the corruption thing with cfk? Or her two bastard grandchildren...doesn't the church frown on sex outside of marriage? Or are the children of rich, corrupt politicians exempt?

Feb 29th, 2016 - 01:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I wonder if the Mafia will 'settle' the pope for the Curia before too much longer.
It's a long way to go to meet a man in a dress, kiss his ring and then get shown the door after 20 minutes. I'm quite sure his needs would have been met at home.

Feb 29th, 2016 - 06:17 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Has the Pope's family suddenly become rich?
The 'RC kiddy fidlers' were centre stage at the Oscars with the 'Spotlight' right on them. Have tbey cleaned up their act - No!
Feb 29th, 2016 - 07:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0the Argentinian/Italian pope is totally irrelevant like all the Italians that came before him
Mar 01st, 2016 - 12:31 am - Link - Report abuse 0As I said before, the pope is a hypocrite and a double faced person. A peronist lover who feels good surrounded by other peronist, populists and mischievous people (like former trade secretary Moreno).
Mar 01st, 2016 - 10:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0He loves south american populists. He says nothing about people suffering from them.
I really believe he is sad because his former master CFK is gone.
