Sir, - I had a great laugh reading the young priesteen' O'Hanlon's gasping and gagging about our President's private visit to the Pope.

I see (excuse the pun) he'll be getting his license in patriotic theology over there in Rome. Does this mean he'll be back in the Diocese of Meath as a licentious patriarchal patronising theocrat, advising us all on politeness before church dignitaries?
