"Translating the Pope"

Kathleen Parker at Real Clear Politics analyzes Pope Benedict's speech. "One can decide that the pope is full of business, or that he's lacking in diplomatic skills. Or, one could conclude that he is the bravest man on Earth."

Lee Smith at The Weekly Standard writes that the Pope is "fighting for hearts and minds" in Europe.

The Washington Times Op-Ed page has a good piece by Tony Blankley on warnings from both the Pope and Henry Kissinger.

It's hard to understand hand-wringing of someone such as E.J. Dionne, who seems to believe in Rosie O'Donnell style moral equivalency.

Betsy Newmark writes that those of all faiths should support the Pope. I certainly concur.
