As someone said yesterday, Hope meets Pope!! Happy Thursday TODers.
Hiya NW
Good Morning Africa.
Good Morning TODVille! Hope meets Pope indeed. I love Hope.
What a beautiful day! Good morning NCLB!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE PICS…ALL THE AWESOME THINGS HAPPEN OVERSEAS WHEN I’M SLEEPING! I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS!…….BEAUTIFUL INDEED!
Hiya, Africa!
Beautiful pictures, post. Thanks!!
Is it?
GM Nochildleftbehind you & Africa are really fast this morning. Now I will go read everything. Congrats to Africa on the gold too. 😀😉
Good Morning NW and all you early birds.☺️
Good morning Roberta. I am supposed to get ready for work (today is a work day) but I am mesmerized by all things Hope and Pope this morning.
Have a great day.
Hope meets Pope indeed.
It was so much fun to watch. Pope Francis didn’t stop smiling and laughing in President Obama’s presence. He held his hands for a long time, used both hands to grasp President Obama’s hands and they chatted and chatted even as official personnel were signaling to the two men that the meeting was over. President Obama told Pope Francis that he’s a great admirer. Pope Francis smiled and said thank you very much. Inquired after First Lady Michelle Obama and the First Daughters and President Obama told him they were on their way home from China.
Their gift giving time was so funny because they kept cracking each other up over and over again and the media was looking on in surprise. HA! Take that, GOP and GOP shilling media. It was a visit that was well worth it and I’m sure they had serious discussions on income inequality and other world issues.
This warms my heart. I am so sorry I missed it live. Wow.
NW, you are always so ON it! Thanks.
Thank you.
Good West Coast morning NW, Chipsticks.& TOD family.
Thanks NW for this recap of the meeting!
Makes me regret just a bit that I didn’t sign on earlier. Your recount answers a question I had whether the Pope spoke English. The snippet I watched above when the /eyreoll/ media was clicking all over the place made me wonder if they had a common language. They do seem more relaxed in this photo than when the wolves were practically on top of them. TY
I really love how PBO always tries to talk to the guards and other people who may seem insignificant to others. I love this president. He inspires me every day. I love his humanity, his humbleness.
We won’t see one like this for a long, long time. Definitely not in my life time.
Indeed. I’ll be SO sad to see him leave offiice. I really don’t see anyone else like him in the office for a long time. He’s set an incredibly high bar.
In a way, I can’t wait for him to leave that cesspool that is D.C. On the other hand, I can’t wait to see what future endeavors he and FLOTUS and the girls will embark on. I anxiously await that. I would like to see him take a very, very long rest because he never stops. Always giving and going. I truly admire his strength, composure, his fortitude.
What’s this, you taking over my mind today, Africa? Simply because I started out crazily? NP – you expressed my exact feelings, thank you. 😉 😉
‘I really love how PBO always tries to talk to the guards and other people’ who many, many others never see.
Me too, Africa. Whenever I see these pictures, outside of a campaign rally or fundraiser, etc. they warm my heart and I mentally add the caption
“President Obama and #We The People”. They always reaffirm the fact that PBO sees ***me***.
That is the Best Picture……I ❤ this one a whole lot. Thanks for posting all these photographs and Video clips. Great job NW.
Extraordinaryyyyyyyyyy……ty NW….
Thanks, Prettyfoot.
Thanks a gazillion you gem of an Early Bird – love ya Nerdy!
Anytime, Chiparoooo. 🙂
What a fabulous post to wake up to–it’s like opening a big present on Christmas morning. And what joy there is in the faces of both our president and the pope. Anyone remember the grim meeting between Putin and the Pope that rivaled a root canal session? This was two charismatic and brilliant world leaders meeting in admiration and deep respect. You can tell that they clicked and that the pope was just as excited as the president. So grateful to you, NW, for giving this wonderful gift to us today. Bless you!
Thank you, Jackie.
You perfectly expressed my sentiments about the meeting.
Papal Gentleman…
The Papal Gentlemen, also called the Gentlemen of His Holiness,[1] are the lay attendants of the pope and his papal household in Vatican City. They serve in the Apostolic Palace near St. Peter’s Basilica in ceremonial positions, such as escorting dignitaries during a papal funeral. They are the Papal version of the traditional court position known as valet de chambre (not the same as a modern valet).

fascinating….
President looks …happy to meet the Pope….
#HopeMeetsPope….
*****************
Glad MrBald…was not one of the drunken Secret Service..
I LOVE PBO’S LAUGH…HE LETS IT GO STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART AND BRINGS IT UP IN A BEAUTIFUL GRIN FROM EAR TO EAR!
Just a reminder that if you are on Twitter, PLEASE retweet and give positive replies to any tweets regarding the president and the pope. Media is doing their damnedest to tear this man down and we need to counter it, one by one in large quantity. United we stand! Don’t let them win their nasty right wing driven assault on our president.
Thanks for the heads up TrumpDog.
This is the photo I like the best of the meeting. It looks like the Life magazine shot. Appears the most genuine to me.
This picture is great, however I don’t think the other pictures are depicting any “less genuine” interactions between PBO and the Pope.
Excellent response, HF.
The picture is nice but the other pictures are no less genuine for not being in black and white. President Barack Obama and Pope Francis had a wonderful meeting and great interaction as evidenced from the videos and ALL the pictures of their meeting. Their interactions were not fake. They were all genuine.
Oh please, people. I wasn’t saying the other photos weren’t genuine. I was trying to say that this photo appeared the most heartfelt TO ME. There was something about the looks on both men’s faces that was the most touching. No need to be off and running on some big condemnation of MY OPINION. I can have one, right? Geez.
I am with you on this. No need for any put downs. We are all Obots.
thank you
G’morning Nerdy, Chips & TOD!
WOW – thanks NW for this awesome coverage of #HopeMeetsPope. These pictures speak for themselves – no captions necessary. And like you said NW, TAKE THAT, GOP and GOP Shilling media!!! 🙂 🙂
Thanks, HF! 🙂
Six word messages this morning ••►
‘Thanks and Good Morning, Ms Wonka!’ /counting: 1,2,3,4,5,..6! / 🙂
Good DAY, all other TODobots! /counting: 1,2,3,4, 5../ ‘..and friends’ / …6… + ½ … Ta-da! / 😉
Enjoy your day! O-ladies home tonight?’ /counting: 1,2,3,4,5,..6! / 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
♥, ♥, ♥, ♥ them ALL! /counting……. not! / Tee hee hee! 😉
Thanks and Good Morning to you too, Ms. VC. 🙂
A-ha, I beatU by three words! 😉 😉
[Can you tell I got up in one of my weird moods?…. Don’t worry, things should get better as the day progresses. 🙂 Never able to predict when such moods will surface is the main reason I don’t drink alcohol. I figure I’m naturally ‘spaced’ so there’s no sense adding anything to the mixture. 😉 ]
In the first pic, I spot John Kerry and Susan Rice in the background proudly looking on!
Yes, that’s them alright!!
thanks for pointing out Dr. Rice in the photo – I had missed noticing her but had seen SoS Kerry
Do we know yet what the gifts that they exchanged were? It certainly looks like the Pope gave POTUS a book, but I wonder what is so funny??
paul ryan’s “budget proposals”?
It was a joke about Rush Limbaugh. Maybe the Pope said he was going to stop by to see Limbaugh and pore some Holy water on him. And POTUS said stop by Boehner and the Republican office too.
swoosh and he scores!
Great Morning Ms. Chips & NW!
Morning everyone!
Thanks a lot for the hook-up NW! Sorry, I had to enjoy it before I greeted everyone!
Have a great day everybody!
LOL. Enjoy away GCL!
I see that “Pope Francis” is the top trend on Twitter, and obviously it’s because PBO has met him today.
GM HF2 😉 both men have HUGE Followers or is it Following…not sure the Twitter Correct verbiage…….World leaders in their own rights….hence they should and must break the Twitter Machine……My wish 😉
I think I like the Pope’s outfit – the freedom of it and the fact it hides any potential paunch.
I wonder if it comes in black, it would really help me hide my paunch.
🙂 I’d personally go for something colourful as summer is imminent (I hope and pray). Plus the cardinals (or whatever) might be offended if you took their colour.
Oops! Morning, Don!
Thanks NW for a great sight to see before surgery and I’m off. . . 🙂
You’re welcome and good luck. Sending you great thoughts and best wishes.
TY, that means a lot. ♥
Best wishes, CM.
TY, ♥ 🙂
Very best to you today, CarolMaeWY!! We’ll be thinking of you and hoping for your comfort and healing. Take very good care and plea check in as soon as you can.
TY, ♥ Hubby will check about 12-1pm ET if all goes well. And it will! 😉 ♥
Wishing you a successful surgery and a smooth speedy recovery/healing period, Carol. Take care.
Thank you ♥ Got to go now. 🙂

Goodness, gracious, child! Why aren’t you resting your eye? /smh in exasperation/ These younger people!
Gone now. . . Did you get a storm?
/whisper; don’t want to awaken the storm god – no storm so far/
Best wishes for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery.
THank you. 🙂
You are in my constant thoughts and prayers, dear friend Carol Mae. Sending healing and positive energy to you. We hope there’s some way we can be apprised of your progress.
Love………
Thank you. Love to you.
Hugs and warm thoughts on your surgery day (((CarolMae)))
Thanks meta.
Sooo, have the heads of rwnj’s essploded yet?
In due time, amk. In due time…
Yes they have…Morning Joke started reciting PBO’s “poll numbers” Rand Paul made some snarky remark about PBO confessing to the pope for spying (NSA). They appear juvenile and ugly and most people are seeing their pure hatred come out.
Forgive me for what I’m about to say, but “F” Morning Joke and Rand Paul.
HF, they reveal themselves for what they are. When he was a candidate or even a “I’m thinking about it” candidate, Barack Obama was never disrespectful of George Bush. He criticized his policies, yes, but he never sneered or attempted to publicly ridicule the person serving in the White House. Thus he revealed himself as a true class act. Rand Paul is a classless, venal, ignorant little man who shows himself in all his smallness every time he opens his mouth.
Exactly.
OH MY GOSH, NERDY WONKA!! I don’t know why, but I’m completely overwhelmed by your presentation of these photos. Just a stunning encounter by two great men of compassion and good will. I can see in each of these photos that their meeting was one of great connection and friendship. WOW!! This is completely AWESOME.
Thank you, thank you.
Aww…thank you so much, Meta.
It was very clear and obvious that they enjoyed each other’s company and the pictures show that. An all around great visit.
Oh, look. Another genuine not black and white picture of President Obama and Pope Francis.
What a great moment.
Indeed!
Indeed!
These two people seem to genuinely respect and admire each other in ALL the pictures that have been shown. It seems as if they could not wait to meet each other. As Annibelle posted earlier, I do hope that the Pope will get a chance to go to the WH in 2015.
Regardless of your place of worship or not this is a moment all meeting. Our President is a man reads, quotes and lives the Scriptures. This Pope seems to want to right a lot of wrong that has and still is going on in his religion. Spiritually, they have a connection. To serve the poor. To speak out for injustice. To give, teach, preach show love.
That is what we all are here for even if you do not believe. As long as we have HOPE, that’s a start.
I always love it when he does his throws-head-back-in-amusement thing. He’s in deep enjoyment.
Aloof? Again? Wow.
❤ this picture too. I am a walking flip flopper and I ❤ it.
love love love these pics. Thanks Nerdy Wonka. I am smiling along with them. These are amazing. I love love love my POTUS
Thank You NW for the wonderful recap of this historical meeting of #HopeMeetsPope.
These two men obviously have an abundant amount of mutual respect for each other. I know they don’t agree on every issue but it certainly didn’t stand in the way of them enjoying each others company at this meeting. I’m so happy that PBO had this opportunity to meet the Pontiff and I have a feeling that it just may go down for him as one of the more memorable events in his Presidency.
Thanks, Donna!
It was a fantastic and historic meeting.
“In a way, I can’t wait for him to leave that cesspool that is D.C. On the other hand, I can’t wait to see what future endeavors he and FLOTUS and the girls will embark on. I anxiously await that. I would like to see him take a very, very long rest because he never stops. Always giving and going. I truly admire his strength, composure, his fortitude.”
Africa
Africa I share your feelings, this is a remarkable man, one of the giants of the 21st century.
Good thing about it both POTUS and FLOTUS still will be young when they leave the WH, and I have no doubt that whatever they do it will be about helping people, not about making money only. And they both will be a success and make us proud, like they are doing now.
By the way the Republicans and Tea Party Republicans have made Capitol Hill a cesspool, and their out and out racism and hatred for the poor is a disgrace too.
I hope that Pres Obama takes over the helm of OFA and continues to organize “We the People”…
#TrustBarack
Good morning TOD. Thank you NW for the great pics. What a wonderful way to start the day.
Thanks, Jackie.
THE ABSOLUTE WARMTH IN PBO’S EYES…SAYS IT ALL. ONE OF THE THINGS I LOVE THE MOST ABOUT HIM IS HIS…HUMILITY REGARDLESS OF ANY AND ALL SURROUNDINGS.
❤ ♥ ❤
EMPEACH GBYOU RICHLY HANDIFATHERDRAGOON YESWECAN!
IMPEACH I say, Now.
More great economic news to accompany our enjoyment of PBO’s historic visit with Pope Francis!
Very symbolic:
Obama’s gift to Pope Francis: A seed chest
President Obama presented Pope Francis with a custom-made seed chest on Thursday, containing fruit and vegetable seeds used in the White House Garden.
The gift was inspired by the pope’s decision to grant public access to the gardens of the Apostolic Palace of Castel Gandolfo, the pope’s summer residence, according to a White House statement.
Obama and Pope Francis met for 52 minutes at Vatican City.
Pope Francis, meanwhile, presented the president with a plaque of some kind, and an encyclical.
“I will treasure this,” Obama said. “I actually will probably read this (encyclical) in the Oval Office when I’m deeply frustrated. I’m sure it will give me strength and calm me down.”
More here:

Very symbolic, and moving indeed! Thanks meta for posting.
I love his thoughtfulness. And how wonderful to think about the seeds of Monticello being planted at The Vatican expressly for the needy as FLOTUS does in DC.
Sigh…this man is so incredibly thoughtful. I’ve posted a close-up picture of the gift box downthread 🙂
What a thoughtful and meaningful gift.
Thanks meta for this info!
My pleasure!
A gift that will help those in need. Those who are hungry and poor, who have hit a rough time. That’s nice And the fact that the seeds come from the WH garden. Nice.
PERFECT!
thanks for the info on the gifts – was wondering what had been exchanged
Thanks for Posting…
It must be difficult to think of what to give someone of Pope Francis’ stature…
how connective …how ….to give seeds from the White House Garden to be planted in the garden of the Pope’s summer residence…a garden that now is accessible to the public….
I love this gift..
They’re all FOX now. Chuck Todd, representing FOX on NBC’s Today Show, stole his report on the PBO/Pope meeting from what I see was the slant on FOX & Friends. He told America that one of the big reasons PBO was visiting the pope was that he was hoping some of the pope’s popularity would rub off on him ——because the pope is popular and PBO is not.
Ed Henry must be sending out the talking points for all the WHPC and they abide like little lambs.
That was the memo that went out this AM to all NBC affiliates. Same comments from NBC 10 in Philly. President needs to see the Pope . President’s ratings and I quote are somewhere in the 40’s and the pope’s are way higher so this meeting is all about the president getting a rating boost from the pope. Disgusting. Meanwhile this was the first mention that the president is in Europe–nothing else he did mattered to the press.
It’s really like PRAVDA, isn’t it, Dotser? Only instead of working FOR the government, our press works for the corporate oligarchs that want to destroy the government.
THISSSSSSSSSSSS….
Bingo
Chucky Todd is a bold face liar. We all know what Fox is. But I seem to recall POTUS, FLOTUS, and the girls meeting the other Pope. And POTUS poll numbers weren’t bad back then. Fox and Chucky Todd is a disgrace.
Feeling too good to even allow Faux & Co. to spoil this moment.
Learning to bring down negative strong holds in the mind before a seed is planted.
Hate, racism, prejudice starts in the mind. If that seed is planted, it grows to become Fox, CT, EH.
Expected nothing less from haters.
Ya know, just a superficial comment, but SOS Kerry is pretty darn tall! 🙂 🙂
And so is the woman standing next to Ben Rhodes.
I have tears in my eyes from those beautiful pictures!!!! What a blessed historic moment. Thank you NW for getting up so early to get these for us. What a wonderful blessed day.
Awwww….thank you very much, MTMarilyn. Glad you like them.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R), an ardent Affordable Care Act critic, is now encouraging residents to transition into new health plans under the very reform law that he once refused to help implement.
Walker told the Washington Examiner’s Philip A. Klein that he has instructed state agencies to work with individuals who are transitioning into plans offered on Wisconsin’s Obamacare marketplace. That includes both the previously uninsured and poor residents just above the poverty level who are being siphoned out of the state’s Medicaid program, BadgerCare, and into private ACA plans under Walker’s conservative alternative to Obamacare’s optional Medicaid expansion.
Just two years ago, Walker was singing a very different tune. He had refused to create a statewide ACA marketplace — thereby also forgoing significant federal funding for Obamacare outreach efforts — and said he wouldn’t lift a finger to help implement the law until the Supreme Court decided the law’s fate. In fact, Wisconsin’s spending on ACA outreach is the lowest in the nation at just 46 cents per capita.
Walker eventually went even further than that. He said that he wouldn’t do anything about the health law at all until after the 2012 November elections, in the hopes that Mitt Romney would win and repeal the law, making implementation efforts moot.
But now that Obama has been re-elected and the ACA is actually going into effect, Walker is admitting that it could provide a boost for many Wisconsinites. “I don’t want people to fall between the cracks,” said Walker in his Examiner interview. “[U]ntil we can change and come up with something better to replace the law, we still care about our constituents, we still want people to do well.”
Amazing that a rethug bastid is able to embrace ObamaCare (and thus take credit during election time) while the cowardly dems run away from it.
Isn’t that just great, now that there is only five days left to sign up.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if this thug calls for a deadline extension?
Oh, but that is NEVER done.
Walker doing this cause he cares about Wisconsinites. If I thought I could get up I would fall out on the floor laughing. But I am glad for the people it will help.
This guy and his cronies did everything they could to stop the extension. Now that Walker is in a dead-heat with the Female Dem who is running against Walk……Walker has now found the support for Medicare extension?
Fool me Once…..WI, shame on Walker, Fool me Twice WI, shame on Wisconsinites.
Fool me Twice WI, shame on Wisconsinites, indeed. They had a golden opportunity in 2010 and blew it.
Okay – making a mad dash to the bank and groceries for odds and ends, with a plan to be back for the news conference. Hold the fort, and distract the President if he tries to start BEFORE I return. Thanks!
So beautifully crafted and presented.
So moving.
Love this.
ABSOLUTELY,POSITIVELY PERFECT AND I HOPE THE WH…FRAMES THIS SOMEWHERE!
❤ ❤ ❤
Wow. Awesome.
Tears. Need tissue.
Sweet!!

The Moro Islamic Liberation Front rebel group in the Philippines has signed a peace deal with the government that brings an end to one of Asia’s longest and deadliest conflicts.
President Benigno Aquino and rebel leaders attended the signing ceremony at the presidential palace in Manila.
Thousands of people have been killed over four decades of separatist fighting in the south of the country.
Talks on the deal began in 2001 and a ceasefire has been in place since 1997.
The Philippines has faced separatist movements for decades in Mindanao, where the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) is based, and in Jolo, home to the radical Islamist Abu Sayyaf group, which is reportedly linked to al-Qaeda.
Communist rebels have also waged a guerrilla conflict over parts of the country from 1969.
Correspondents say Thursday’s deal paves the way for mostly Muslim areas of Mindanao to have more autonomy, but it will not end all violence as other groups have vowed to keep fighting for full independence.

Good morning Nerdy Wonka and TOD.
Thank you for the inspiring gorgeous pictures of our President with The Pope.
Hope and Pope, indeed!
Clearly POTUS was enjoying this meeting, head thrown back with big smile. Pope Francis looks very pleased as well.
A tiny moment reminded me of one of the things I most admire about President Obama. When he was helped with his chair he said “Grazie.”
A small bit of politeness, but here’s the underlying greatness of PBO—He will meet you in your world not demand you meet him in his.
We see this quality of graciousness everyday with PBO.
And it’s direct opposite with the GOP/MSM—braying endlessly that you do as they say because their world is the only one that matters.
Thank you for pointing that out Vicki! It is in these small moments that you see the true character of the man.
He makes me so proud everyday.
Me too, Dudette.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is close to agreement with Ukraine on financial assistance worth $14-18bn (£8.5-£11bn) over the next two years.
An agreement still needs approval by the full board of the IMF.
The stand-by arrangement comes at the end of a three-week visit by IMF officials to the country.
The deal is expected to unlock a further $27bn in loans for Ukraine from the European Union and the US.
…
The IMF says a key part of Ukraine’s reform programme will focus on the country’s state-owned energy company, Naftogaz, which imports gas from Russian energy giant Gazprom.
Russia has already said that the discounted gas prices Ukraine gets from Gazprom will come to an end next week.
“Over time the programme will focus also on improving the transparency of Naftogaz’s accounts and restructuring of the company to reduce its costs and raise efficiency,” the IMF’s statement added.

Congrats @MsNefetiri
Mother’s pride.
I can’t wait for the Presidential Library – be it in Chicago, Honolulu, I will be THERE!!!
I say TOD Group Tour!!
Indeed meta. What if the Library features a small section of Internet sites (like TOD) that were created by ordinary folks and devoted to POSITIVE coverage of PBO’s Presidency? 🙂 🙂
I think we should all get a job there, don’t you? LOLz.
Hmmm….
Off to start researching how I could break into a new career of librarian! Paging LL…
We’ll start an internship program for TODville…..
Yup…a 2-yr program that will start this September and finish in August 2016. Just in time….
We’re halfway there.
Yup 🙂 🙂
Count me in!
WOOT! Our Nerd Ambassador!
It’s going to be a MAJOR tourist attraction, probably causing backlogs and waiting lists for people who want to visit.

Brainwrap is doing an excellent job.
If Only We still had a Reputable MSM.
Thank you so much TOD!!
I knew you wouldn’t disappoint in covering this meeting with these two wonderful men!! 🙂 🙂
Thanks.
Ain’t that the truth!

Rand Paul Presbyterian (baptized Episcopalian)
@SenRandPaul
. @BarackObama to @Pontifex: Forgive me father for I have spied. #NSA

Hmmm…. When did I shall not Spy become a Commandment, Rand ?
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/rand-paul-imagines-obama-pope-meeting-spying
Paul is just a resentful jerk. And he will NEVER be President and he knows it. No one cares when he visits a country or town, or region. No one ever says, “I can’t wait to see Rand Paul meet with ___.” No one cares about the nobody that is Rand Paul. Most people know that his fake obsession with NSA is really about his preoccupation with this amazing phenomenon that is Barack Obama, who he Paul, never ever will be.
Rand Paul..Forgive me Father for my Father is a racists and he has a son who is one too.
I can’t stand Rand Paul.
Until Rand Paul is a Roman Catholic at a confessional…..those words he spouted are once again being plagiarized. Typical of the small man…..always stealing and Never original nor with an authentic thought.
please proceed Rand.
Hear, hear!
Dudette, thanks for sharing this. TOD family this is one of many, many, many reasons why I love our Chips and all of my TOD brilliant brothers and sisters who contribute with Chips each and every day. There are so many ordinary and wonderful people in departments and supporters of our president who come here and love this place because of the way Chips and her team presents with intellect, preciseness the very important world of our great President. The respect, the reporting, the great posts, and the loving family attitude that is so present here, others find it to be so refreshing and so truthful.
Thanks again, Chips for keeping your fine work ready for all to see and be inspired daily. HZ
LOL! 😀
LOL! Funny but true 🙂
Rise and Shine.

Chuck Todd did tell Us that his job is Not reporting. Now We can 1001% see that Chuck is Not a News man, but a Fox and rightie wicked mimeograph/er.
Gold for NCLB and AFRICA 😉
