1. You don't take Fox news seriously do you?
Haven't you figured out yet that the network is satire? Only the poor rubes that believe it is news are not in on the joke yet.

3. Bad pope! You know you're just supposed to harp on those teachings....
that help prop up the GOP. Fox News and the Republicans need to elect a "Real American" pope who'll get rid of the bad liberal teachings on social justice -- Rick Santorum would probably do.

7. The apologists for capitalism are on the defensive. Sounds like a
positive development to me.

8. It's just "fox news".....aka "right wing propaganda machine"
Their brain dead audience will sit up straight in their chairs and maybe even go so far as to call their friends and scare them with this "hot news".

Holy shit! These morons are in the business of keeping the morons in this country scared, anti-liberal, anti-THEM.

Morons, morons, morons. We are a nation of morons! We are #1!

14. CARITAS IN VERITATE
I am not a Catholic (not even a Christian), but I was interested to read about what the Pope has been saying on economic and social issues, in his Encyclical published on July 7th.

My interest was first raised by this article in THE NEW REPUBLIC: Roman Holiday - Does Obama Have A Friend In The Vatican?

You can find the full text here: CARITAS IN VERITATE
