UPDATE: My Kind of Pope: The Holy Father's Homelessness Chops.
I like the cut of this pontiff's zucchetto. Forget for a moment his speech before Congress earlier this morning. At 11:15 am EST Pope Francis will leave Capitol Hill and do something people will actually remember: dine with DC's homeless at St. Patrick's on 10th Street, N.W., a 10 minute walk from my office. I'm going over there now. I dislike religions--but I like Francis' focus on Homelessness, a global problem which people of all cultural and political stripes in all nations and economies are going to have to face.
UPDATE: Francis. This guy got to me. And then he blessed our food. At noon today on 10th Street, Northwest, in my city: "The son of God came into this world a homeless person." Blew me away.
St. Patrick's Church, 10th & G Streets, N.W., Washington, D.C.
Francis yesterday in the new tricked-out radical Popemobile.
