President Obama will give the pope a stole during his visit to the Vatican on Friday.
The Washington Post reports that Obama will deliver a stole that was laid on the remains of St. John Neumann.
The stole was secured for Obama by the Redemptorists of Baltimore Province.

Since Neumann did a lot of work with immigrants, the stole has come to symbolize a new wave of immigration to the United States, according to the report.

I don’t know if the Pope see it this as an insult to him, but it is. Obama makes everything political. Even when he belonged to the ridiculous Wright church in Chicago, it was political; a way he could make contacts since he was an outsider from New York at the time.
The man is clearly an atheist. I am fine with that. So am I.
But he is a hypocrite when he refers to prayer and when he goes to various churches but can’t settle on one because there is no religion he believes in. He lacks the guts to say: “I’m an atheist”.
As for Michelle I wouldn’t even guess what she is but I imagine her ideal church is very very scary.
I dispute feller. Obama is a moslem, has always been a moslem, and never stopped being a moslem. He still thinks the call to prayer is the most beautiful sound. Only a moslem would say that. To non-moslems that call sounds like pigs in heat. There are many examples of his support for the moslem faith.
The most glaring incident was Obama bowing down to the king of Saudi Arabia. A non-Muslim would never do that.
I was certainly surprised tonight when FOX News played the speech Obamaster gave in Africa..He actually blamed Africans for doing things to Africans in Africa!!! corruption, killings, bribes!! he said it all..Take out the AFRICA and one would think he was talking about Congress/Senate!
I think I misread the headline. What did Obama steal from the Pope ?
