Bush has never before given a visiting leader the honor of picking him up at the airport.

What is the deal with Bush?
aha! I found out:
Since then, such audiences have become a must-do. Every president has met with the pope at least once, often more. This week makes Bush the record-holder, with a total of five meetings with two popes.
There are more than 64 million reasons for this. Catholics number nearly one-quarter of the U.S. population, making them a desirable constituency for politicians to court.

Maybe, just maybe, it's because President Bush is a christian as well as the President and he is just showing respect for the man.
We understand the differences between the RCC and evangelical churches, but the majority of the world does not - and it would seem like a slap in the face for our christian president not to warmly welcome the leader of probably the biggest "christian" faith in the world.

Hopefully Bush has enough class not to pick the pope up with that filthy ford pick up he drives around in crawford.
