He seems to be coming up to speed a little. It's taking him a long, long, long, long time to get up to speed. But he's starting very, very slowly getting there, a little. I suppose. Sigh. Eventually. Maybe. Slowly. Perhaps before I die. Maybe. Still this is as close as he's ever got to posing serious, direct questions about what's going down in the Vatican. So I am grateful. It was worth the very considerable wait. I hope for more. Sometime. Soon.
Don’t just listen to what he says, keep an eye on what he does, i.e., WHO he consistently appoints to positions of power and influence. With this Vatican, “Personnel is policy.” Period.
