Pope Awesome
Thursday, April 17th, 2008After Pope Benedict XVI gave a speech at the White House yesterday, President Bush stood up and complimented him.
“Thank you, Your Holiness,” he said. “Awesome speech.”
I’m all for mocking President Bush for his inappropriately fratty demeanor.
But in fairness to Bush, there’s clearly something about Pope Benedict XVI that overwhelms people with feelings of awesomeness.
Check out this short clip from National Public Radio, which aired shortly after Benedict ascended to the Pope-osphere in 2005.
Play it loud because, it’s, well, awesome.
