Rather unfortunate headline on Bing just now.

(This was from a story where Senator Inhofe criticized Pope Francis for speaking out on global warming).

They ran a picture of Inhofe with the words "Takes Shot At Pope".

You'd think they'd remember that thirty-four years ago or so, somebody actually DID that.

As Seinfeld would say..."really?...really?"
