Planting the Seed

The warmness of relations between Pope Benedict XVI and President George Bush is leading to speculation the president may, at the conclusion of his presidency, follow Tony Blair over to Rome. That doesn't seem likely to your Bloviator. The president is a devout, evangelical protestant (Methodist) and the likely reason he and the Pope get along so well is that there are so few world leaders today of similar moral outlook; the two may simply be starved for friendship.

Just the same, it is thrilling to imagine our president becoming a Catholic and should, within the next few months, an invitation be extended to Fr. Michael Seed to visit the White House, your Bloviator will have to reconsider his doubts that ever happening.
