Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsOMG ... Gushing Chris Matthews again.
Already gushing about this Italian-Argentinian, 76 year old church elitist.
And ... a collaborator with the worst of Argentina's military dictator of the 70s and 80s.
Sheesh, I like Matthews but a little circumspection might be a nice change once in awhile on these kinds of things.
Hey, 'Johnny Quest' is on Boomerang for those who want to keep watching TV.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorge_Bergoglio
On 15 April 2005, a human rights lawyer filed a criminal complaint against Bergoglio, as superior in the Society of Jesus of Argentina, accusing him of involvement in the kidnapping by the Navy in May 1976 (during the military dictatorship) of two Jesuit priests.[27] The priests, Orlando Yorio and Francisco Jalics, were found alive five months later, drugged and semi-nude. Yorio accused Bergoglio of effectively handing them over to the death squads by declining to tell the regime that he endorsed their work. Jalics refused to discuss it after moving into seclusion in a German monastery.[28] Horacio Verbitsky, an Argentine investigative journalist and author, wrote a book about this and other related events titled El Silencio: de Paulo VI a Bergoglio: las relaciones secretas de la Iglesia con la ESMA.[29]

I am really really looking forward to his show, featuring the man who videotaped Romney's 47 percent comments and shared them as a matter of conscience.
