The Pope

Ummm, Nancy Reagan just compared her late husband (Ronald Reagan) to the Pope.

The hell?!

She said: they both enjoyed the outdoors, were both shot in '81 and were both referred to as Great Communicators.

Whatever, Nancy.

As a lifelong Catholic, I'm a little offended by the parallel.

Unlike Reagan, the number of people (white, black, and Hispanic) below the poverty level didn't increase in almost every year between 1981 (31.8 million) and 1992 (39.3 million) under the Pope.

The Pope never trippled the national debt.

The Pope didn't quadruple the trade deficit.

*rolling my eyes*
