"Hillary and I are deeply saddened by the passing of His Holiness Pope John Paul II. In speaking powerfully and eloquently for mercy and reconciliation to people divided by old hatreds and persecuted by abuse of power, the Holy Father was a beacon of light not just for Catholics, but for all people. In more than 170 visits to over 115 countries, from the Balkans to the Middle East, from Central Africa to Asia, he was tireless in his efforts to defend human rights and human dignity. His remarkable journey from Wadowice, Poland to the Vatican played an important role in hastening the downfall of Communism. I will always treasure our five meetings in the U.S and the Vatican, especially the deep concern His Holiness expressed over the suffering of the Bosnians and of religious liberty throughout the world."

His Holiness is now at home with God, whom he served so faithfully for a lifetime."

1. Now that is a professional statement - instead of Bush self-promotion.

4. Used it to promote his "culture of life" and protecting the weak.

8. "culture of life" was framed by this late Pope -- the busheviks stole it

and misused it -- it's blasphemy to the Holy Departed Soul of this Pope who was trying to impress on the "unreachable" imperialist chimp that Iraq War was wrong, and especially if chimp would go to war in the name of God, thus blaspheming both God and the culture of life.

Great to see first hand the quality difference between Clinton and chimp statements.

3. I'm in tears again.

This time, for what we once had.

The Clintons have so much Class. I hate using that word, but they truly do. More than the Bushes have in their little fingers.
