BERLIN (Feb. 3) - "Nearly four years after a rare outburst of national pride over the election of a German pope, Germans are falling out of love with Pope Benedict because of his rehabilitation of a bishop who denies the Holocaust.
Prominent Catholics, politicians and newspaper commentators in Joseph Ratzinger's homeland are pulling no punches in their criticism of his lifting of the excommunications of four bishops, including one who denies the extent of the Holocaust."

Something tells me Shimmy will be chiming in. Or Gertrude Stein or Mary Tyler Moore lol.
Too bad Francis Bacon isn't still alive. Ratzinger has that perfect face for a Bacon painting.
