At 4:00p.m. EST today, the Holy Father will be touching down in the United States. Bells will be sounding all over the Fruited Plain and I cannot begin to describe the excitement building inside of me. I'll be checking out EWTN's coverage via streaming video. I believe they're running coverage during his entire visit. Sunday cannot come soon enough. Bus leaves at 7am for Yankee Stadium. WOO HOO!
Saw a great interview last night on The World Over with Raymond Arroyo. W is rolling out the red carpet for His Holiness, who Bush refered to as His Holy Father instead of either His Holiness or Holy Father (typical W combining words and phrases). Arroyo did a heck of a job with Bush. Asked him point blank why the red carpet treatment, why is he attending the Olympics, etc. Great interview. Last night at 11 was the final re-airing of it, but you can view it here.
He also had Laura Ingraham on the show - a recent convert. She's pretty funny.
A PETRVS prediction: Bush converts.
You heard it here first.
