I was gonna say where's obligatory joke but your Neanderthal attitude is sufficiently funny.
It's also funny that after only making 8 posts over the last year that you came out of hibernation just to tell me to move.

Pope: Clinton 'Was Not Listening to Me'

ROME (Reuters) - Pope John Paul (news - web sites) was quoted as saying the only world leader he was never really able to have a proper conversation with was outgoing President Clinton (news - web sites).

In a wide-ranging interview published in Italian weekly magazine Oggi, the surgeon who operated on the Pope in 1994 said the 80-year-old Pontiff had revealed details of some of his encounters during relaxed conversations.

Quoting what the Pope said to him, Fineschi said:

``The only leader I did not manage to have a proper conversation with was Clinton. I was speaking and he was looking at one of the walls, admiring the frescos and the paintings.

``He was not listening to me,'' Fineschi quoted the Pope as saying.
