Do You Believe in Ghosts, Mr. President?
You know, * really has some nerve showing up at the Pope's funeral. Of course he'll put on a good show, feigning sorrow and sadness for political gain, making it all about him. NO respect for the dead.

Call me superstitious, but I can't help feeling this is a really bad move for * and he'll regret it. Especially since the Pope wasn't fond of the little warmonger.

2. How in the hell is security going to be handled??
The SS can't close down Vatican City! I can't believe that the chimp would go to an event so open to the public. Or will he ride around in the Popemobile?

3. It'll be very interesting
to see how security is handled. I can't imagine people in genuine grief are going to want to accommodate such a circus.

5. Perhaps he'll make a special
middle of the night visit?

Would Vatican City allow Bush to shut things down, glue manhole covers, etc. the way he does elsewhere?

7. Come on now, you know how it will be handled......

They will shut down the entire area much to the dismay of everyone including The Vatican. And then the only people allowed in the area, that the chimp is in, will be those signing a loyalty oath! :sarcasm:

4. I'm praying for a miracle! I hope as Mr. Bush passes by the
former Pope that John Paul raises up and gets his attention with his pope stick. Now that would be news and would make a statement that even Fox would have to broadcast!
