Let’s face it kids, when I ask:
ABE: Who wears a matching red hat with red Prada shoes and elaborate dresses?
YOU: Dame Edna?
ABE: No.
YOU: Any of the contestants on RuPaul’s Drag Race?
ABE: No. Give up? Here’s a hint. He turns a blind eye to child molesters and is the top dog of the Catholic church.
YOU: Justin Bieber?
ABE: No, you maroon. It’s the Pope, the Holy Pontiff, His Grace in the Glass Menagerie.
Nice reputation, Marlene Pope Benedict XVI. I mean…really…would you let this guy, if he was not the Pope, anywhere near your kids? Anointing you with scented water? Putting a wafer in your mouth? FEH! If you answered yes to any of these, then go…in peace, my child. But if you are like me, you would be horrified. So what does his minions of zealots do instead? They give this guy a glass encased mobile unit to parade around with flailing arms. Fotz…indeed. The Catholic church needs to do a lot more than soul searching now. As far as I am concerned the past ten years has been fraught with sex scandals…yet nothing has changed. What irks me about this whole affair is that to the average Joe (the Plumber), pedophilia = homosexuality. The deviant behavior of these priests will be lumped into one category. This debacle poses all sorts of potential problems for gay people…mark my words. Sure, I know that I am not interested in fondling little boys, how friggen boring would that be? But go ask the Tea Partyers what they think about all of this. Girls, run for the hills. Because now that the Democrats have won the heath care battle, these riled up idiots are out for blood. And because they are so insane…rather…stupid, they will bypass the perverted priests and their accomplice (Pope) and go straight for the gays. They will find a way to rationalize this and then we are screwed…and not in a good way.
