The Americans in particular seem to think he's a Marxist
Those who, as catholics, complain about him have forgotten that little baby jesus decides who runs the church ( albeit with a little help from some men in dresses in the conclave ).
If you hold a position with the Heritage Foundation, it's more likely that your own myopic world view is what's providing the tint to your perception. Limbaugh is the megaphone for the mouth-breathing loons.
This is not a representative view of 'The Americans'.
Is the pope catholic?
do bears defecate in arboreal areas?
is capitalism a source of inequality?
I don't think you have to be a commie pinko to know the answers
The allegation in the article that the Pope is some kind of Communist is based on the opinions of American neoconservatives who make comments such as the quoted [i]"I think this is a Pope who clearly has some Marxist leanings"[/i].
These are exactly the same people who also accuse Barack Obama of having [i]"Marxist leanings"[/i] and denounce free universal healthcare as Communism.
