The Patriot Post® · Pope Meets President

Pope Francis and Barack Obama met for 52 minutes Thursday in an effort to warm relations between the U.S. and the Vatican. But there are more differences than similarities between the two leaders, and even their similarities aren’t really that. For example, while Francis has made caring for the poor a particular focus of his papacy, Obama uses “income inequality” to divide this nation along class lines for political gain. And then there’s the glaring differences on the meaning of marriage and ObamaCare’s contraception mandate, which has forced Catholic organizations like the Little Sisters of the Poor to sue the administration over religious liberty violations. In any case, less than an hour with the pope certainly won’t cover for the 20 years Obama spent as a disciple of hate in the racist “Reverend” Jeremiah Wright’s “church.”
