That AP dispatch Jonah and Drudge linked to carried another eye-popping sentence — where Clinton claimed he met TWO popes, JP2, and John the 23rd — who died in 1963, and who never left Italy, if my current reading is correct. Are we to believe Bill flew to the Vatican in high school and met the Pope? There’s no mention of that pope in his memoir’s index, and if this had ever occurred, wouldn’t have Clinton used it with Catholic voters in every campaign since ‘76? It would be almost as legendary as his high school meeting with JFK.
