I used to watch midnight mass with my mom Christmas growing up. Easter stuff too. But that was then, that has changed now that my skepticism has made me pay attention more to what holy people say.

Well, I was 15 when he got the job and kind of naive. He fought communism, my kind of guy back then. Also, still catholic and not giving leaving much thought.

But I remember 1992 and the speech he gave on the 500th anniversary of Columbus laying his dirty claws on America. He said, it was a good thing that he brought the natives the light of the cross. That was my ultimate eye opener. I couldn't muster any sympathy for him or the catholic church after that. He also was against liberation theology in South America, because it was socialist in his eyes.

Suffice to say that I consider the current pope a bleeding heart liberal, compared to his predecessors.

Where do you get a morality argument from my comment. Are you drunk posting again? Seriously, where did you come up with this?

@Brian37

Please respond to my question.

Trump wins SC.  Clinton wins Nevada.

What's curious is that Trump with roughly 34% and Cruz with about 21% mean that 55% of republicunt voters are willing to go with a batshit crazy lunatic.  The other 4 morons can't catch them.

Bush should pack it in while he is only a laughingstock.  It only gets worse from here.

There will be a lot of pressure on Bush and Kasich to drop out so that Rubio might consolidate alot of their votes. I think they will. Carson will probably hang around so tough luck for Cruz getting those evangelical votes.

Bush just quit.

Money can't buy everything.

We're so fucked. What kind of choice is Clinton/Trump? I will never cast a vote for Clinton, even if the alternative is Trump.

Then don't bitch if Trump wins.

This isn't Miss America.  You don't get 50 choices.

If the alternative is Clinton, as it surely will be, I won't.
