2. The Federalist, a right-wing website, criticized the Pope for allegedly not mentioning Jesus, which they claimed as a glaring mistake
3. Normally, I'd overlook this since I make far more than my share of typos, which my heroic colleagues at TNR don't always catch.
4. Still, it takes real Chutzpah to snidely insult the Pope while talking about Doris Day and Thomas Madison (i.e. Thomas Merton).
@HeerJeet While the Federalist should have proofed that transcript, the source of those errors is Roll Call: http://blogs.rollcall.com/white-house/pope-francis-speech-to-congress-transcript/ …
@notjessewalker But why use Roll Call? The Vatican made the text of the speech available to media.
@HeerJeet @notjessewalker @GPollowitz maybe waiting for the vatican to post the transcript would have retarded the publishing process.
@ThePantau @notjessewalker @GPollowitz Vatican made text available right as speech started. Faster than Roll Call. But ha ha "retarded"
@HeerJeet @ThePantau @GPollowitz I don't know if the pope ad libs much, but in general I'd rather use a transcript than the prepared text.
@notjessewalker @ThePantau @GPollowitz I was reading prepared text while listening. Didn't ad lib. Dropped a few sentences.
