World leaders react to abuse scandal
It's a sad day when even the Vatican denounces you....

snip
The Vatican newspaper, L’Osservatore Romano, criticized what it called a Pentagon cover-up and took sharp aim at the photograph of a soldier holding a prisoner by a leash. The paper said the soldier’s goal was clearly to dehumanize the prisoner, but the image achieved the opposite effect.

“On the contrary, it is the torturer who with her leash stifles within herself any residue of humanity,” it said.

1. The vatican denounced the war!


Ridiculous.

So what deos CNN do? Runs a bunch of stories trying to drive a wedge between Kerry and Catholics over abortion...

2. Interesting that the criticism is aimed at the woman and not at the men
and the dogs.

3. Smart catch. For the Catholic church women are mainly breeders. But
now this woman is pregnant. Will that change the church's mind?

4. The Vatican has no business denouncing anything!
After their behavior in the child abuse scandals!
