Can I answer that question with a question? Why do these people want to be at a welcome ceremony for the Pope, do you suppose?

There's a time and place for rigorous debate. I don't think a "welcome ceremony" is the place to debate (or attack) what the Pope holds dear. Has Obama invited anyone who got free food at a Catholic food bank, free medical care at a Catholic hospital, or free lodging at a Catholic shelter? I don't know.

Spence, maybe you'd invite Ann Coulter to a welcome ceremony for Caitlyn/Bruce Jenner, but I wouldn't. Even if Coulter didn't say a word, I doubt her presence would make Jenner feel welcome, which is the whole point of welcome ceremony, isn't it?
