His Holiness…
His Holiness, realizing that no good could come of this photo oppurtunity, stopped in his tracks. The President was confused to hear the Pontiff chanting “There’s no place like Rome. There’s no place like Rome.”
(George W. Bush, Pope Benedict XVI)

meh. not so funneh.
1% funny max
Agree

Red shoes with a white dress? What was he thinking?
The pope is so gay it’s not even funny. I can pretty much see him saying “Hey Girls” in that pic.
Those are his Cardinal shoes, and why should he get new shoes just ‘cos he’s Pope now? He’s very thrifty, a noble characteristic
Yes if you do not account for a 30.000 € ermine hat.
But still funny…even an Evil Mastermind like His Sanctity is ashamed of being close to Bush Jr.
The dress is fine.
The shoes are fine.
As soon as he started singing “I feel pretty”..not so fine.
LOL’d more at this than the lol.
I second that. Shame the unfunny ones all make it to the front page. =(
I think with the hand motions, it’s more likely that he’s singing R. Kelly’s “I believe I can fly” As I write this, I realize that it is strangely appropriate given what we know about the church, R. Kelly and minors.
Some of the incidents of pedophilia portrayed in the media did occur within the Catholic church, but most occurred within other denominations of Christianity. Actually, the vast majority of pedophilia is perpetrated outside of any religious institution.
I read ‘perpetrated’ as ‘penetrated’.
Alice: Yep, me too!

Oh ha ha, the Pope wears red shoes. Gee, just like every other Pope throughout history.
Can’t you all go back to making fun of Republican candidates? Just one week left until election! Get your jokes in now!
aww come on, pope jokes are so much fun though!
Probably not the ones before Constantine, though.
Hadrian II’s wife took his red shoes and made him wear green shoes. They went better with his eyes.
I don’t think most people know what colour shoes the popes wear.
Or how rude they sound when they snap at others for insignificant things like comments on a picture on punditkitchen.
Anger management classes. Sign yourself up for some.
Where’s the little red hat?
Was this an attempt at a joke? the pope wears a white hat. Cardinals wear red hats.
… and so does the Spanish Inquisition!
But nobody expects that!
Especially…. IN BED!!!
no bed… but there is a COMFY CHAIR!!!
froufrou WIN.
Actually there’s another pic with him wearing a red hat that looks like Woody’s from Toy Story.
And His purple Boa!! Man The rest of the society is gonna shit bricks when he shows up for shopping and he doesn’t have any purple and forgot his hat!
>.> Yea red hat society joke >.>
Aww. His dog is so cute, too.
That’s not a dog, that’s the President of the United States. For now.
I’m a Republican, but that was bloomin’ funny, Czernobog. Clever, sire, clever.
Zing!
“red shoes…like every other Pope throughout history.”
So true!
In fact, that’s why St. Peter was crucified upside down, it wasn’t humility, he wanted everyone to see his dope red kicks.
Har.
Seriously though – is that true about the red shoes? Why? Any Catholics wanna explain this one? (Meaning no disrespect, iz just curious.)
I was raised Catholic and never heard of it before. here’s a wikipedia entry, take it or leave it as I don’t know the veracity.
Part of the Cardinal vestments is red shoes, and since the Pope is chosen from among the Cardinals it’s just reasonable that they all have red shoes in their wardrobes. They don’t *all* wear them, though.
NFI re the shoes, I just thought they got to wear the little red hat and ginormus sash (’cause let’s face it, there aren’t all that many skinny cardinals around, are there?!). Not sure the red leather works with the white gear though. . .
The red shoes are part of the official vestments given to the pope when he is elected. Red and white to symbolize sacrifice/passion and purity.
I am glad being a Catechist is showing its real world applications
Not a very funny lol, but epic priestly bling. (I have a Priest uncle, raised Catholic, all that B.S., and forever amused by the giant jewelled crosses. So tacky.)
I lolled.
Well i actually found that pretty funny ^^
No place like Rome instead of home :3
i liked the old Wizard of Oz movie! xD
force shield?
Hm, must’ve forgotten to click his heels.
