As we peruse the Sunday headlines, we cats are struck by the number of matters that are spinning out of control but shouldn't be. (NOTE: The no-shows at the Polish President's funeral don't count. Nobody controls a volcano.)
Stephen Harper's clumsy handling of the Helena Guergis affair is stretching, unnecessarily, into its second week. Which has made his Conservative Party plummet in the polls. P.S.: Now, the Ethics Commissioner must investigate new allegations about Palin — oops, we mean Guergis, and her hapless husband.
The repercussions from Virginia Governor McDonnell's self-inflicted boo-boo, "Confederate History Month," won't go away, either. This is partly thanks to the stupidity of Haley Barbour and partly thanks to teabaggers who claim they never called John Lewis the n-word.
But today's prize-winner has to be Pope Panzer — otherwise known as Benedict XVI — who can't even seem to shake his organization's sex-abuse scandal on a harmless overseas trip. (Notice that we cats said "organization," and not "church." No real church would foment, condone and cover up such repugnant sins.)
