Foiled again

[Reuters photo, Alessandro Bianchi]
I'll bet you that right now Benedict is angrily stroking his invisible demon familiar and seething under his breath:
"I'll get you, Spain. I'll get you."
You can't stop progress, Bennie, and you and your obsolete religion can't squash human rights anymore. Why don't you do something useful with your life, like maybe going to Africa and handing out condoms?

Is it just me, or is anyone else reminded of Dr. Evil by that photograph?

Yes, it was Rachael (www.yarnagogo.com) who first pointed the resemblance out to me and sent me a link to some photos. Then I found this one, which is proof enough for me that he's surrounded by evil little creatures mortal humans can't see. Look how he strokes it.

To me, he looks more like Senator Palpatine, the Dark Lord of the Sith. Which is equally apt.
Now we just have to keep hoping that somehow, the US has a change of heart. Or at least that a sense of fairness comes through and the Uniting American Families act passes, to allow my same-sex American partner to sponsor me for immigration.

By the way Jodi.. why no hair pics? Or even a report? Is it really *that* bad?

His is truly the face of the catholic church: ancient, menacing, and devoid of logic.
