CNN

Some of you people are just sick, sick, sick. This is a non political event but you still must bring up your candidate or criticizes the other candidate. Regardless of someone's religion, he is a man who influences millions of people. Grow up and get some manners.

i mean really? Are we meant to care who wolf gets to meet? Exhibit #445 why CNN is getting thumped in ratings. No one cares about Wolfie's lunch dates.

God bless him, but when is he going home? He's interrupting my shows!

Not all of us are Catholics! And find all of this boring music and this old man floating around in a gown to be nerve recking when our shows are cut into by these BREAKING NEWS (not) messages.

I'm sure he's a fine man I just don't have any connections with him. I just hope he won't be still here next week. We got more important things to deal with right now. Maybe if he comes during a non election year it would be better. Can somebody suggest that to him in the future?

For your pathetic coverage, Wolf, you are going to Hell.

I would truly like to know if the delegates you announced today4-18-08
crossing over to the devil's brother are being bought or paid?

sounds like a boring blog. i don't like this pope anyways. the previous one seemed more wiling to unite religious leaders

I AM FOR HILLARY BUT WHEN I TYPE OBAMA COMES OUT.

GO OBAMA GO ( I MEAN GO HILLARY GO HOME)

MY GODDESS HILLARY, I AM SORRY BUT IT'S OVER

OBAMA 08

Nice Wolf... good to read something other than Hillary throwing mud and Obama crying about it.

Once in a lifetime... Have a great weekend!

Wolf, whether you're visiting with the Pope or whatever you may do, please don't leave CNN Situation Room. I look forward to you everyday because you bring the most important uptodate news.

Wolf...Boring NEWS!

I am very happy for you Wolfe. You experienced something very special. May God be with you and your family.

I have long respected Wolf Blitzer's engaging reporting style and sincere effort at objectvity. I am happy for him to have experienced the honor of meeting such a famous religious leader, but I am admittedly a bit surprised by a trusted reporter appearing so gushy. I know it's very easy to get swept up in the moment of meeting a powerful and respected leader, but I do expect our independent reporters to use the privilege of their media role and influence to bring thoughtful and useful information to its public. I saw none of that in this instance of reporting and am disappointed.

When I look at the bloody history of the Catholic church I have no respect. They have lost the power of life or death over their flock but maintain the ability to abuse.
It is my opinion that organized religion, and the Catholic church in particular, is a business and the members should think twice and exercise a great deal of caution before placing their faith and trust in them.
The Catholic church was not established by Jesus but is the invention of men seeking power and position. It's better than working for a living.

Dear Mr Blitzer

I must say I am shocked and dismayed at the euphoric welcome and idolising of the Pope in the US.

"It was so courageous of him to face the sex abuse crises head-on" – the sex abuse crises was brought to the attention of the Church years ago.. When the truth was getting impossible to evade, it was this man, as Cardinal Ratzinger, who did everything he could to cover-up, deflect, deny, twist the reality, until finally the truth won out at an impossibly high price to many people.

Wake up America....you elect a dry-drunk as President, not just once, but twice. And now this stomach-churning admiration for a man who should beg for unconditional forgiveness and make full retribution to the scores of people whose lives have been destroyed in the name of his Holy Church.

I have the right to speak out as I sadly was abused as a child, (not by a clergyman), just a good God-loving. church- going Catholic. At aged sixty I now refuse to remain silent.

did you tell the pope,that he came just in time,to keep the government,from taking all the catholic children away from their homes,families and communities,because of all of the abuses by catholic priests,just like the children in texas?

Wolf-
Catholic or not, it is a rare honor to meet a world leader that is the face of peace and unity. I sure the commenters that disagree have not reached teir 30th birthday and/or have an IQ under 110.

I would enjoy hearing more about your meeting wih His Holiness, Benedict XV1.

Wow !! You people are vicious... First time read....last time read..

What is happening in this primary when the media has to tailor questions to the suitablity of Barack Obama. Every candidate should have to answer tough questions. Why is he an excepts. We can't say anything against him, we can't ask questions of him, African-Americans are being called a "traitor" if they thing for themselves and want to vote their conscience, and he has the audacity to tell the public that he can read our minds and decide what we want to hear and many boy into that and say that the media was too hard on him. If he can't stand the heat, he needs to get out of the kitchen. Now we have a group of people stating that you can't bother Barack. Is that a threat? Is he buying the election because he raised more money than anyone else. Yes, his mother was a single parent, they may have used food stamps, but that necessarily mean that he is not now an "Eliteist". I think not, he is when he calls everything "silly and trivial" that he does not want to answer and decided what questions he can and cannot be asked. His performance on the last debate was horrible. Yes, he can make speeches, but he is terrible in debates and many of the questions he could not answer. Barack Obama does not have a premium on honesty, integrity and knowing everything. No one is perfest, as he wants us to believe.

The Catholic church is a dinosaur.

Ok, I'm going to go out on a limb here.

The Pope, George W. Bush, Barack H. Obama
the harlot, the beast and the false prophet respectively.

Now don't go crazy but stop and think. Religeon has screwed up the human race up to this day. Unlike religeon, Jesus Christ is the savior of the world and the world leaders cannot take his place, ever..

How many of you out there that are just so appalled at the words. Notice I said words from a Marine veteran (Side note how many of these so call media types can say the have proudly served this country in uniform? Maybe 1 but they are so patriotic. So much so that lapel pins mean a great deal to them as U.S. Army veteran the lapel pin means crap.
You know in your heart if you love this country, even when it doesn't love you back. Because of your color, or maybe you grew up in a trailer park) How many of you have left the Catholic churches while your sex issus were going on. For decades!!!! how many of you were alter boys? Interesting how easy it is to point the finger at other.......

Facts from Fact check

Clinton's ad says that "she's the one who will make oil companies pay" to support her clean-energy initiatives. In fact, she proposed to spend $150 billion for energy improvements over 10 years, and proposed to pay for some part of that through higher taxes on oil companies.
Clinton faults Obama for voting for the 2005 energy bill, which she calls "the Bush Cheney energy bill." But the compromise Obama voted for was supported by most Senate Democrats and lacked many of the administration's original proposals. As we've said before, it resulted in a small net tax increase on oil companies.

I don't think that Obama would be interested in meeting the Pope. Ther is a reason why the majority of Catholics and probably Jews do not support Obama. They know something but no one saying much out loud.

Wolf ,
I know you will be on your best behavior but you had better tell Lou Dobbs to stop ragging on the Pope being on cable TV all day.What does he want to see ,more people ragging on Obama?

I say it again... Be he never be, So Humble, again...

Have him tell Hillary the party is over and she can go home now! Bill and Hillary should schedule there confession with the Pope.

This just in:

McCain tied his own shoes today!

Congratulations Wolf. There is no better way to say this than to say that even the Pope recognizes honorable journalism. I have said it before that in my estimation, there are only too journalists left in America- Wolf Blitzer and Larry king. The others are a bunch of partisan praise singing or anti-personality misfits who have greatly limited our choice of news sources. I am happy that the Pope has given honor to whom it is due. Once again CONGRATS.

Um, so...

hm...

I guess any critical and constructive reporting on the Vatican by you is out of the question now. You've pretty much expressed your undyling love for this guy.

God, how I long for the day when reporters actually "report" again.

Wolf,

This isn't your personal blog. This is the political ticker. Hearing about the honor you felt in meeting the pope isn't political news. If you want to talk about that, put it on your personal blog.

You should have asked for forgiveness for the way you are lying throughout this presidential campaign about the candidate. Shame on you Wolf.

Wolf:

Did you ask the Pope to pray for Hillary and forgive her lies?

ALL ABOARD! ALL ABOARD! ALL BOARD!

TRAIN LEAVING THE STATON!

LAST CALL FOR HILLARY SUPPORTER TO JUMP ON

OBAMA ALL THE WAY

Wolf,
Any true prayers are appreciated. Need all the blessings we can get ! Nice that you were selected for this opportunity. Being introduced and shaking hands with the Pope is an honor. In some ways, it extends from there to the rest of us.

We are told that there will always be evil in the world But some are given the unique gift to fight it at deeper levels. Freedom of speech and of the press are huge gifts in that battle. We are so fortunate in this country to have them. Use them wisely. You really can and do make a difference in people's lives!

DO SMALL THINGS WITH GREAT LOVE.... (Mother Teresa of Calcutta)

I would be impressed if he could walk on water like Obama!

Are there any "journalists" left in the world?

I just have one thing to say to Wolf:

Let's Go Buffalo!

WOLF

You hopefully will acknowledge by these comments thay you are not
much appreciated as the Political Ticker anchor nor by your role in TV.

Nothing personal against you, but it is a fact that between the visible
members of the ridiculously called "BEST POLITICAL TEAM" you are
one of the least qualified. more so to lead it.

I hope that after speaking with the pope (a really inspiring person), you will see the light and resign !

I HOPE VERY MUCH (AGAIN, UNTIL NOW I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST YOU PERSONALLY), THAT THIS POST WILL NOT BE DELETED,

Dominus Vobiscum

TOM BOER

Did you go to confession Wolf?You could have told him how biased you have been.

You look quilty Wolf!!

CNN WHERE IS YOUR HEADLINES:

OBAMA DROP 8 POINTS IN 3 DAYS!!!!!!!

OBAMA HAD A 11 POINT LEAD!!!!

SO????

I'm sure your mothers would have been proud.

the pope is just a regilious figure. being a past catholic, I'm not that thrilled that people call him Holy Father. There is only one Father in heaven. And this post will never make it because it is truth.

Wolfe:

Wish you would ask the tough questions like, what good will a 20 cent tax cut be when gas is 4.00 per gallon? The other tough question, gas taxes pay for badly needed road repairs, how will we pay for road repairs? Scratch the last question, who can afford to drive anyway.

Everyone to his/Her Own... I love the Sun.. myself.

Wolf,

Having read Tim Russert's book on his father and his years in Buffalo, I know how important this invitation is to you Buffolonians. I understand that there is a large Catholic community made up of various ethnic groups who settled in the area some time ago.

I think the Pope's trip so far has been extremely positive. The fact that he met with victims of abuse by the Church was a major breakthrough and I thank him for acknowledging and apologizing for the Church's sins.

Best of luck Wolf! And remember – Totus Tuus!

Alright, Wolf, let's do some 3-on-3 on a half court.... You, Timmy Russert, and Benny XVI on Hannity, Coulter, and me... Who should ref? McCain or Obama?

Hillary sure looks ridiculous with this pom-poms...

congratulations, mr. blitzer! it's indeed a great honor to have met and shook the hands of Pope Benedict XVI. you are very lucky!

From New Hampshire, we watched that Cardinal Law go reside in the Vatican. "Why not leave him home?", -we asked.

Good for you wolf getting blessing from the Pop will hopefuly make you relize being hard to people who do not look like you is not the right thing to do. I am hoping from now on you will start reporting as it is and as you see it with out any bias. God bless you

Oh one more thing if you could advice your racist friend Lou Dobbs to behave the same way thanks.

Ask for the Pope to pray for your making it to the other side of this campaign with your integrity still intact, because you are losing it. If you want to support Hillary, go work on her dying campaign, and stop pretending to be “fair and balanced”, you’re not.

Obama 08

Wolf it is ok, we are not intrested in this keep it to yourself.

That's not really "reporting," it's more like a high-schooler's diary entry.

Why'd you expect pro-Obama spin from Wolf Blitzer?

I am so very happy for you Wolf. It was a great opportunity for you to meet the pope...so many people would have loved to be in your shoes. The gold medal would be a treasure to me also.

Wolf–Not even one question about the Vatican's hospitality and–in some cases–sympathy for Nazi Germany during the build up to and the start of WWII??

Is it really all that big a deal?

I mean, especially if you aren't Catholic... who cares? I'd rather meet Tom Cruise in all honesty.

Hillary is going to go on Saturday Not Live this weekend to "pretend" she is the most adoring person on the planet. Not only is she not adoring, she's not even human.

I'm sure Snotty Not Live is salivating to get her back on their brain dead show.

Hey Hillary, Got Decency? I didn't think so.

Obama 08

I'm impressed, Wolf. No pro-Obama spin!

cricketzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Wuffie, we just don't care....
Get a spine.
