Even though Progressives in anti-Christian forces make sure to get t their messages out each and every Holy Week, this year’s came as a jolt to many Christians.
“Pope Pelosi”. That’s how the the mighty Drudge Report headlined the story about Pelosi partnering up with Bishop Marc Andrus to--”honor the dignity and work of immigrants” by washing the feet of two children at San Francisco’s Saint John the Evangelist Episcopal Church in San Francisco.
You could call that “making like the Pope” or even “Aping the Pope”, but never “Pope Pelosi”.
We don’t know whether Bishop Andrus caved in to Pelosi pressure or whether he relished having her beside him for a foot washing ceremony used to dredge up the Immigration Issue, and most of us don’t much care.
All we really know is that Pelosi the Pope is heresy.
Pelosi, an abortion-advocating ‘Catholic’, wanted to let the whole world in on her Holy Thursday gig: so in the fashion of an Obama Selfie, she sent out pictures on her Twitter account.
“Honored to be in the Mission to assist Bishop Andrus as he washes the feet of immigrant families,” were the words of her boastful rather than humble Tweet.
One could almost hear the cackle coming from the Pelosi Mansion as the tweeted responses began to pour in. ( “We won’t post any here knowing how much Pelosi craves attention. )
But Drudge alliteration headline or not, no one would ever take seriously the name “Pope Pelosi”.
And as shocking as Pope Pelosi was, hitting the headlines on Good Friday as it did, could it really be any worse than the ‘Reverend’
Al Sharpton only saying the day before that the ‘true meaning of Easter is revealed through the political crucifixion of Obama”?
“Will Congresswoman Pelosi inspire the same profound awareness of human dignity and the need for Christian service to the "fringes" that Pope Francis offered his flock? More likely, her actions will be seen as an inappropriate, even repellent, intrusion of partisan politics into a solemn Christian ritual, and she will be rightly discouraged from repeating last night' appearance”.

Meanwhile, “Pope Pelosi” will see for herself that she wasn’t able to put even the teeniest dent in the millions of Christians who will turn out for church service this Easter Sunday.
