Buried in this story on MSNBC about how Bush is pulling out all the stops to welcome Pope Benedict to the U.S., was this line:
"The evening festivities will mark the first time the Bushes have put on a high-profile meal in honor of someone who isn't even a guest."
So... Bush is throwing a dinner in honor of the Pope and the Pope is stiff-arming him? And this is after the Chimperor is going to drive out to the airport to give the Pope a lift into town? Does the Pope not know the sort of man that Bush is? It's not beyond the realm of possibility that there will be Predator drones buzzing over the Vatican, seeking to fire missiles into the Pope's apartment.
I can hear it now: "I may have been a Hitler Youth and I was drafted into the Wehrmacht, but I draw the line at sitting down to a meal with that schmuck!"
