It's OK When Republicans Use Private Email Accounts!

They did a nationwide survey that found that when voters think of Donald Trump, the most common word that comes to mind is "Arrogant." When the same voters think of Hillary Clinton, the most common word they use is "Liar." When they think of Jeb Bush, the first word that comes to mind is "Bush." Voters don't even care enough about Jeb Bush to come up with a word to describe him.- Jimmy Kimmel

Subject: Pope Francis Quote


Hello Lisa, I hope you are feeling well. I have at times donated to your  
website, as much as my limited retirement income allows. But I digress,  
your web site is great; refreshing, witty and insightful. However I must  
draw attention to your "quote" from liberal Pope Francis, he did not make  
that statement. As a recovering Atheist Catholic I so wanted to believe  
that Francis said such, but he did not. It's not clear where the quote  
originated, but there is no proof (nor is there precedent) for the claim  
Pope Francis voiced it.  I wish Francis would have stated such so I could  
quote it to my religious friends. On second thought they believe in myths  
and fables, so why not this quote? LOL Thanks Lisa. 
With respect, Randall


Dear Randall,
So good to hear from you. I'm OK and hope you are too. Thank you for the compliments about AHNC. Deep curtsy.
I am so glad my viewers are smarter than me. Thank you for taking the time to inform me of my error by posting the meme below.
I like this Pope a lot. I'm not a recovering Atheist Catholic as yourself, I'm more of a recovering Cafeteria Catholic. 






I want a government that's small enough to build walls around anything that irrationally scares me.- LOLGOP
