Maltese Double Cross

Pope Benedict XVI nodded off in the middle of the Mass he was celebrating in Malta.

The pontiff met with ten Maltese victims of priestly pedophilia yesterday. Yup, they were even doin' the naughty in Malta for Christ's sake. One of the victims, now 37, said he told the pope he was filled with emptiness to which the pope said he understands. Uh huh.

The pope didn't apologize and didn't address the scandal during the Mass yesterday.
