How Come When Republicans talk about Pope John Paul II
The only thing they mention is his opposition to abortion. I mean the Pope stood for other things like, "Helping the Poor" "Preaching Against Unjust Wars" "Opposition to the Death Penalty" and...Oh wait never mind. It's just become so obvious.

Unless the Pope had a cocaine problem when he was younger, I guess abortion is just about it.

3. It's not so obvious to those who eat the spoon-fed infotainment
that the MSM presents to them.

They simply do not know about the pope standing for helping the poor, opposing *'s war etc, because no-one ever told them.

4. Yeah, how often does the media mention those things?
They always called Pope John Paul II a "conservative" and mentioned his opposition to abortion, same-sex marriage and stem-cell research. They never mentioned that he was liberal on all economic issues and the ultimate peacenik who opposed the war in Iraq. Yes, the media is so liberal. :eyes:
