One House Republican lawmaker said the GOP considers the pope is "too liberal."The unnamed Republican, who supports the resolution, said GOP lawmakers have complained that Pope Francis is "sounding like Obama" because he "talks about equality." What's more, the pope has blasted "trickle down economics," rhetoric that many conservatives consider "politically charged."A Religion News Service report added, "[N]early half of all simple resolutions burberry introduced in the last two years were passed, so it's notable that one praising Pope Francis couldn't even make it out of committee in this Congress."To be sure, burberry very little seems to happen in this Congress, but in the case of this resolution, it appears there may be more than routine gridlock at play.Also from the God Machine this week:Today's edition of quick hits: Iraq: "The United States launched another round of burberry airstrikes against ISIS in Iraq Friday, using burberry drones and fighter jets to attack a mortar position and vehicle convoy near Erbil, the Pentagon said.

Let's start with the positives. There's an auxiliary jack for your iPod (or whatever 3% marketshare mp3 player you're using) coupled to a sweet sounding 10 speaker Bose surround sound system. Packaged with the moonroof, it's almost worth the $1,760 charge. Our CX 9 Grand Touring also had the optional $2,500 GT Assist Package that includes a backup camera and electric open and close hatch. The camera's view, unfortunately, didn't help much when parallel parking, but we can see it reducing the risk of running over a careless kid. The dual zone climate control was nice, and the auto dimming mirror must have worked since we never noticed it not working. Possibly the most valuable bit of electronics this Mazda sported was its $200 blind spot monitoring system. Using sensors on all four corners, it detects objects hiding in blind spots and alerts the driver with a lighted icon in the doors' mirrors. Signal a lane change with the icon lit, and the car beeps to get your attention. Unfortunately, that's a sound only courteous drivers will ever know.
