Today, 12 p.m.: Join the washingtonpost.com Live Online discussion on MICHAEL STEELE AND THE GOP's FUTURE with The Root's deputy editor Terence Samuel.
I've been a Republican for a long time, more than two decades, and I have always been concerned about the poor relationship between the GOP and black voters. But I must admit that I had no idea things had gotten so bad for the Grand Old Party in terms of dwindling black participation.
Last Thursday at the Republican National Committee winter meeting in Washington, I could count on one hand the number of blacks present. The representation among black women in the room was even more dismal.
On Friday, that number increased modestly, to about 20, as it became apparent that Michael Steele would be elected RNC chairman, making him the first African American to head the party.
This turn of events confirmed a concern I've had since I joined the party back in 1988—that if the GOP leadership kept ignoring the northeast and mid-Atlantic states, and kept writing off the black vote, that eventually we would become a largely white, Southern, regional party.
Clearly, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell agrees with me. In a speech to the faithful on Thursday, he said, "We're all concerned about the fact that the very wealthy and the very poor, the most and least educated, and a majority of minority voters seem to have more or less stopped paying attention to us." He continued: "And we should be concerned that, as a result of all this, the Republican Party seems to be slipping into a position of being more of a regional party than a national one. In politics there's a name for a regional party, it's called a minority party."
Granted, it has been years since I've been engaged in the inner workings of the Republican Party, but I had no idea that the number of black party faithfuls had dwindled to such a dismal number. What I witnessed last week was far worse than election night 1992, when George H. W. Bush lost the election to Bill Clinton. I'll never forget that night. I was 24, and I remember standing alone, thinking, "Where are the black and brown people?" Standing there, I hoped that someday in the future, due in part to my efforts, the party of Lincoln would once again become a more diverse and open organization.
I was wrong. Steele is the party chairman, but the party he inherits has not made any progress in terms of its black membership; to witness the level of regression is surreal. What struck me is that I did not see any of the black Republicans with whom I came of age with back in the late '80s and '90s. They were not there to celebrate Steele's historic win.

She made her own choice, but I still consider her a victim.
Making a choice that you truly feel is right for you doesn't negate victimization.
As someone who was married to an extremely controlling/manipulative/cruel man, I can sympathize with her. It took me much longer to get out, although I didn't have Scientology hovering around either. And I didn't have access to the resources she did either.
I figure she saw Tom as someone wonderful who made her feel wonderful. As someone else mentioned - THE Tom Cruise wanted her for his wife. I'm sure both Tom, his friends & the other bigwigs at Scientology rolled out the red carpet treatment for her, making it seem like Scientology was full of peace, love, contentment, wisdom, beauty, & all sorts of wonderful-wonderful. She wanted to be & do what Tom wanted, & what the heck, they all treated her like they loved her. Then she was pregnant & giving him a child, so more fawning over her.
Then reality kicked in. But she was raised that Marriage is forever & divorce is wrong & "giving up". Plus there was a child involved. So she stuck it out, hoping it would get better. But it didn't. It got worse.
Next you tell yourself you are somehow being a strong person by sticking with it. Stronger than those "other women" who throw in the towel & give up. You mentally pat yourself on the back for your "strength". Just so it doesn't get worse you can continue, after all, you are "strong".
Then it gets worse.
Once again you tell yourself you can take it just so it doesn't get worse.
Then it gets worse.
You keep telling yourself the same thing. After all, you are "strong".
Then it gets worse.
And on & on, over & over until one day you realize that it's NOT going to get better, only worse. Not only are you absolutely miserable & your health is starting to suffer & you dread every day & it's not healthy for your child(ren), but NO ONE is supposed to live like that. And you don't even want it to work out anymore. You'd rather live in a field in a cardboard box than continue.
Been there done that.(not the cardboard box part) I'm glad she has the resources she does & she got out when she did.
Now that I've thoroughly depressed everyone - off to Big Brother.

As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron. - H.L. Mencken .
Miss Scarlett, your post is extremely well stated and full of truths! I understand exactly where you're coming from. I was with a man who liked to control, too, but he wasn't extremely successful with me, thank goodness. One of the things I've always been most proud of was a sister-in-law telling me, "You were too strong for him." Talk about a badge of honor! I think Katie did exactly what she should have done. SHE took the lead, for a change. No shame in that!

When you throw a rock into a pack of dogs, you know which one you hit by the one that yelps!
As for Katie being young and knowing vs. not knowing. Yes, I think in your 20's you are capable of figuring it out. I also think she was starstruck and figured it would all just work out. And then she had a kid. I don't know about anyone else, but everything changed when I became a mother. I couldn't comprehend it until it actually happened - meaning I could think things were going to work out and think everything would be fine and I could find a way before I had a kid. Afterwards, it changed. That being said, something about the way this whole thing blew apart out of no where and how quickly it was resolved says there is more to it. Suri is almost 6, isn't she? So if it was really about her and Scientology, why now? I've seen the stuff about that place for kids - but everyone says that doesn't happen until you are older - like 16. I don't get it. Not that I'm supposed to.
Very good points! Motherhood does matter. As far as I am concerned, it can make you even,more defensive, more protective and more wary. I hate it when I see women that say that they are staying where they don't really want to be "for the sake of the children,", but it's all individual decisions. Like Dr. Phil was known for saying, children would rather be from a broken home than in one....and our kids read us, whether we think they do or not. "If Mama ain't happy, ain't NOBODY happy."

Pepe Reina will return to Liverpool after Napoli boss Rafael Benitez admitted defeat in his attempt to try and make last season's loan move permanent.
Benitez admitted that the Italian club can't afford the Spanish goalkeeper's wages, leaving a possible move to Arsenal open.
"Yes. Pepe has two years left on his contract at Liverpool," Benitez told talkSPORT.
"He has to go back and he'll stay there. We can't afford Pepe's wages.
"The Premier League is a very big league and, in Serie A, we don't pay big wages like in England. He will have to fight for his position at Liverpool."
Liverpool transfer targets: Who might they sign this summer?
Liverpool transfer targets: Who might they sign this summer?
1/4 Mohamed Diame
Mohamed Diame said he was on the verge of a move to Liverpool in 2012 but the dismissal of Kenny Dalglish scuppered the deal. The West Ham attacking midfielder has stated more recently that he wants to play for a bigger side. Having impressed last term with goals and assists to his name at Upton Park, a move to Anfield could be back on.

2/4 Mateo Kovacic
The last player Liverpool signed from Inter Milan, Philippe Coutinho, was rather successful. So it's no surprise Liverpool have been linked with rising star Mateo Kovacic. Th 20-year-old has a long-term deal at the San Siro and says he is happy to remain in Italy having joined in a £12.4m deal in 2013.
3/4 Mario Balotelli
AC Milan appear ready to sell the former Manchester City player and he's been strongly linked with a return to the Premier League. Arsenal were understood to be the front-runners in the chase for the striker but the departure of Suarez has seen Liverpool emerge as contenders.
Getty Images
4/4 Ezequiel Lavezzi
The Argentina international was linked with a move to Liverpool following the collapse of the move for Loic Remy. The PSG forward could be available due to the expected arrival of Angel Di Maria in the French capital. Lavezzi scored nine goals in 32 Ligue 1 appearances last term and has notched seven goals in 19 Champions League appearances since joining the club for £24m.
The Spaniard made 30 league appearances last season to help Benitez's men finish third in Serie A and qualify for the Champions League.
Reds manager Brendan Rodgers indicated earlier this year that he does not see a future for Reina on Merseyside.
Simon Mignolet has a firm grasp on the No 1 shirt under Rodgers, having enjoyed an excellent debut season on Merseyside as Liverpool launched a challenge for the Premier League title.
According to reports, Reina is a target for Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger who is seeking an upgrade on Wojciech Szczesny.
Reina is currently in Brazil with the Spain squad - they have their opening World Cup game against the Netherlands tonight.Reuse content

This time the group has targeted China's biggest search engine, Baidu. The site's home page briefly displayed a message declaring the site had been hacked by the Iranian Cyber Army.
"It is not presently clear whether Baidu's site itself was compromised or, as in the case with the Twitter attack, its DNS records," said Graham Cluley senior technology consultant at Sophos.
If the website's DNS records were breached then the hackers would have been able to redirect visitor to web server under their control, he said in a blog post.
The Baidu website appeared to be back to normal in two hours, indicating that the motive for the attack was political rather than financial, said Cluley.
But it would have been easy for the hackers to create a cloned version of the main Baidu web page, he said, complete with an invisible link to a software exploit or piece of malware.
"Attacks like this are a reminder to everyone that you always need to have security scanning every webpage you visit, even if it is an established legitimate website," said Cluley.

Is it at all possible to filter by a custom attribute? Or do these attributes at least come through, so that we can filter them in the tickets.each...
Basically we're looking for a way to be able to label a ticket as deffered. This way it's not in our face all the time, but it's not closed either.

The custom fields should come back to you. So you'd probably need to just grab all the open tickets (or by user) and then filter them in the browser.
In the future, I'm hoping to make it so that you can define a custom "report" that gets included with your plugin. Then you can use that report to build out the data you need.

Thanks for the notes. So I've just run into something, and perhaps this is a new topic, but I used (var tickets = SPICEWORKS.data.Ticket.find( 'all', {filter:'open'});) and it worked. I changed to use: (var tickets = SPICEWORKS.data.Ticket.find( 'all', {filter:'open_and_assigned_to_current_user'});) and now it's not returning anything. If it helps I can post the code that I have.
I have opened a new question in Spiecworks Support for this issue, as I noticed that it seems to be displaying the unassigned tickets. The other topic can be found here: http:/

People of All Ages and Backgrounds Turned Out for May Day Yesterday
As fellow colleague James King wrote here , The New York Post dismissed yesterday's May Day event as a "joke", made up mostly of "bums".
While there were definitely a good number of attention-whorish characters, hooligans, and actual bums, many people who participated seemed to be normal folks, of all ages and various backgrounds, looking to let their voices be heard.
We'll let photos do the talking. (For more professional photos of yesterday's event, check out our slideshow, featuring images shot by C S Muncy)
Leading the front of yesterday's (mostly peaceful) march was a combination of various minority groups.
Alex, Jeremy, and Jeremy, age 14, 14, and 13. Took bus from Princeton, New Jersey here to participate. "All this stuff doesn't affect us yet, but it will, it's our future"
These two ladies are not part of any groups. "We just wanted to participate to send a message," said Mary, right.

Reviews of Grootberg Lodge
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Grootberg Relaxation
After attempting to drive up to the lodge in our 2x4 car and scaring the living daylights out of every one we parked and were met once again very warmly even though we arrived very early!!
The setting was breath taking as was the temperature of the pool water. Lots of different wildlife to see especially birds.
Activities were well organised and once again the guides were excellent. What to say about the staff, they were fantastic, friendly, helpful but useless at netball !! ( Florida and Marianne watch out for a rematch)
Food was once again excellent and served in a friendly atmosphere or was this the effect of Florida's special Springbok and Orryx cocktails? The lodge does have an extremely community based feel about it and you are made to feel like one of the family.
Stunning views
Facinating experience to stay at a community run Lodge. Showed a very good practical eco approach to everything including conservation. All very friendly and helpful. Although no hot water in the morning for a shower!!
Fantastic views and didn't get a chance to use the infinty swimming pool. Went on an afternoon Game drive as the walks were cancelled due to Lions being too close. Saw a stunning sunset and a lot of game, however you do need to be prepared as the ride is very bumpy! Ended up with some bruises.
Wished we'd stayed two nights to do more, like Rhino tracking. That night at dinner all the staff came in singing Happy Birthday to me and than sang some traditional songs, we were very touched, they also brought in some bubbly which we shared with all the other guests. Another unforgettable experience. Would go back again.
Fantastic location
The journey to Grootberg from Swakopmund was very long and evry very bumpy; but the scenery en-route was amazing!
The trip up to the lodge itself in an old bus was rather fun and we had a lovely welcome from the staff. The lodge staff were very friendly and sang songs for us after dinner which was great.
We were very fortunate that on the tracking for Desert Elephants we came across 3 huge bull elephants; so despite the searing heat and long walk- it was well worth it! The views from the lodge were perhaps it's best point.
Our chalet was in a fantastic location, but not too clean and their were mouse droppings in my bed! The resturant fllor and tables also neede a good clean- but any negatives were soon forgotten due to the lovely location and the brilliant staff.
an OK lodge with some room for improvement
We stayed only 1 night there on the way to Etosha from Deser Rhino Camp and did not participate in any activities. The lodge has an amazing view of the Stone River Valley, which comes at a price as you have to leave the car at the foot of the hill and then be driven there in quite an ancient vehicle that looks like a cross between a tank and a bus - it's an adventure in itself if you are not afraid of heights ;)
The rooms are very small and rather dark and they lack some of the usual stuff that we could find in other lodges (no torch, no panic alarm). The paths between the rooms and the main building are really stony and uneven so make sure you have your own torch with you.
The food and service was OK in general, but a bit too slow - for example we had to wait for a lunch snack for an hour. All in all, it's not a very sophisticated place, but we'd like to stress here that the staff are extremely nice and friendly and that can make up for a lot. We really enjoyed the singing after dinner!
Grootberg Lodge review
Grootberg Lodge we love you! What a wonderful place to stay. Top class professional staff, excellent guides, a view from the shower that will stay with me forever.
Our guide, Moses, was excellent. He told us stories that he had been told by his grandmother about the animals and trees, we learned about the local cultures, flora and fauna and felt very well looked after. We stopped for a packed lunch under the trees and there was no hurry to move on. This trip was excellent value for money. We were disappointed not to have time to do their Rhino tracking trip but we will definitely stay there again.
Much like Damaraland Camp we learned that this lodge is an excellent example of sustainable development, investing in the local community to provide a viable future for the young people. The difference for me was that everybody here was incredibly happy and cheery and it was very well run.
Black rhino heaven
What a STUNNING setting with views for 34km down the Klip river valley and an infinity pool to die for. A most welcoming camp where we were greeted with genuine enthusiasm.
The access isn't for the faint hearted, but transport to the top of the plateau is readily available from the camp team. We had a memorable day tracking black rhino on foot and taking photographs from 20metres away with the help of the trackers.
If the meat served for the main course at dinner could be as good as at Doro Nawas this camp would be a must to visit but on both the evenings we stayed it was disappointing in quantity and quality. A shame! Starters and desserts were of a much higher standard.
Grootberg Lodge review
Whilst the Lodge itself was not the most luxurious of our trip this was exceeded by the service and friendiness of Dominic, Simonetta ( spelling ?) and all of the Grootberg team.
From our arrival at the bottom of the mountain track, waiting for the 4x4 to come down to collect us, the staff could not have been better.
We were immediately made welcome by the guy looking after the guests vehicles and then Domionic arrived to collect us and our luggage and take up the very steep track to the Lodge and what a location.... a total surprise not revealed until taken onto the main veranda for a welcome drink.
The lodge is on top of a mountain horseshoe plateau with superb views seemingly for miles.
Our bungalow, although not huge, was perfectly adequate and located on the edge of the plateau with amazing views.
Our only negative comment on the room was that the pillows not as comfortable as some and on the 2nd morning noticed a hole in the bottom sheet.
All of this pales into insignificance when viewed against the total experience with the staff.
Meals were excellent, and hot !, and followed by entertainment on both evenings by front and back room staff performing local songs with great humour.
Wnenever we had been out multiple staff would come up to you, seemingly knowing, or having been skillfully briefed, exactly what you had been doing and being genuinely interested and wanitng to ensure you were having a good time.
We booked to go on a morning game drive to the river valley but this ended up being a shorter drive on the plateau.. which was slightly disappointing although we saw plenty of Oryx, Springbok, Mountain Zebra and other creatures.
Over lunch Dominic came over to talk with us and we mentioned the drive and after leaving us for a short while he came back to advise that he had arranged an additional drive, down to the river bed, and at no additional cost..... great service.
The atmosphere at Grootberg was very relaxed and you felt like part of an enlarged family particularly with the 2 dogs in attendance.
Grootberg Lodge review
Wonderful setting but activities quite expensive., Pity we were not told about the change in the clocks on the first Sunday in September, caused a little enbarrassment by late arrival at mealtime.Read more about the whole safari
amazing location
Excellent. Full service and wonderfull activities (game drive and Himba little settelment).
One of the most impressive remembrance.
Grootberg Lodge review
This has to be the scariest place to get to! I know there is a warning about leaving your car at the bottom of the track, and the ride up was fairly terrifying, but coming back down.....
It was another place that had us saying 'wow' because of the view - the whole place just perches on the edge of a cliff - an amazing location and again, community run with direct links back into the local wider community. They were rightly proud of what they have achieved and it was fascinating to hear about how this lodge is changing the lives of the people in such a remote and wild area.
Our only disappointment was that one of their vehicles had a problem and so it was either 'tracking rhinls' or 'tracking elephants' and since more wanted to do elephants, we missed out on the rhino and since we had done the elephant tracking at Doro Nawas, we were left with walks on our own for much of the time. These were well marked and offered amazing views and very close encounters with game such as oryx and springbok. The birds were at about the same level as us for most of the time - excellent views of eagles at nearly 200 feet!
It was very windy again while we were at Grootberg and this made the rooms feel cold - we would have loved a hot water bottle here just to take the chill off at night. It is also a location where you really need a torch as the paths are very rocky, with only a few lights along them and its a long way out to Cabin 1 from the main house - many of the other lodges provided torches so we left ours in the 'bus' - its a long and scary walk back down that hill to fetch it!
Bob, the gentleman who welcomed us, nothing was too much trouble for him, and the young man who looked after the cars at the bottom of the track - he had even cleaned our filthy 'bus' before we left - such lovely people and they deserve every success with this wonderful lodge.

A leading Israeli official has praised Pope Pius XII for saving Jews during the Nazi occupation of Rome, a surprise twist in a long-standing controversy over the pontiff's wartime role. The comments by Mordechay Lewy, the Israeli ambassador to the Vatican, were some of the warmest ever made by a Jewish official about Pius. Most have been very critical of his record.

Price Value Quality
Same as above, storm blew in when I was away and bent the bottom section 90 degrees at ground level. Was told by Valley Forge no warranty on residential poles. I removed the damaged section so now not as tall.
You need a stronger pole or get your flag down in extreme wind.

My review is similar to the other review. My bottom section snapped in 35 mph wind though. Easy to put up and looks nice when standing.

Value Quality Price
Have had the pole installed since Memorial Day weekend of 2009...I did a good job of anchoring the socket.
6/22/2009 storm blew through with one gust reaching 80 mph. The pole bent over at the socket and am in process of replacing the lower section. Rural King help line and Valley Forge have been most helpful in getting the replacement part.
A 50 foot willow tree didn't survive the gust either.
Pole has good fit and finish. Would survive most storms easily but we were lucky enough to catch one of the odd ones.

Melnitz Movies presents RUSHMORE (Wes Anderson, 1998)

Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
Back to School Screening!
35mm print!
Wes Anderson's smart, refreshing picture is all about Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman), who is in the tenth grade at Rushmore Academy—or, to put it in Max's own terms, in heaven. He runs everything from the school beekeepers to the rather ambitious theatre group; he hangs out with Mr. Blume (Bill Murray), the father of a school friend; and, although his grades are woeful, Max compensates by falling in love with a teacher, Miss Cross (Olivia Williams). All is well until Blume, too, falls in love with Miss Cross; from here on, Max's world starts to come apart at the seams—not that you would know it from his big, blank, bespectacled face. The whole movie marks the triumph of the deadpan; Schwartzman is cautious but stubbornly optimistic, while Murray is possessed by the mania of near-despair, but neither kicks up much of a fuss. They make the best and most disconcerting odd couple that American movies have produced in a long while, and they lightly demolish the social hierarchy: how can Blume be Max's elder and better, when the child is so plainly the father of the man? Anderson finds the ideal comic rhythm for all this—sliding off the beat for a few surreal gags but always kicking back fast into the plot. As a result, what could have been merely arch or wacky turns into something more touching—a mature riff on the absurdity of growing up. - Anthony Lane, New Yorker

The complete 1973-1976 original run of Wacky Packages [WIKI]: all sixteen series, including hard-to-find cards, with each card cross-indexed and contextualized, with occasional links to rough drafts. Sometimes Topps spoofed themselves. Sometimes they didn't make much sense. A lot of times, they're racist. • The gum is the final frontier of the serious collector.
Hooray for bubblegum cards!!
After the gum is gone, you still have the bubble gum cards. Browse a collection of scanned cards from the 1960s (Ugly Stickers and Ugly Names), 70s (Monster Initials, Marvel Super Heroes) and the 80s (Pee Wee Herman). The initials series have word generators (IE only!): Love Initials, Mod Initials, Monster Initials (similar, previously). [via] [more inside]

Wacky Packages are back! Everyone's favourite stickers from childhood are back. The originals were developed by Maus author Art Spiegelman way back in 1967, with the first series of stickers being released in 1973.
Sometimes goofy, often gross, Wacky Packages were a 10-year-old's dream come true (with Garbage Pail Kids a close second).

Wacky Packages! Of course, all the cool kids called them Wacky Packs. It's odd to recognize that I was sticking these on notebooks, walls, doors and lockers when a lot of my coworkers were in diapers. I remember series 3 the best.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Pope to resign: Panhandle reacts to bombshell announcement
MARTINSBURG – The resignation announcement of 85-year-old Pope Benedict XVI resounded with Roman Catholics worldwide Monday. In a common wave of reaction, Eastern Panhandle clergy members too were surprised by Benedict's decision to bow out, becoming the first pontiff to do so in six centuries.
"This is the first abdication since 1415, so it's not the kind of thing that happens all the time," said the Rev. R. Eric Hall of St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Martinsburg.
Benedict's decision to step down was based on his age and infirmity.
"I saw one interesting quote earlier," Hall said, citing a Catholic Sister's comparison of Benedict with Pope John Paul II, stating the latter exemplified the dignity of suffering while the former now exemplifies the beauty of humility.
Benedict was elected in 2005 after the death of his predecessor.
"I was surprised, but I think it's also courageous," said the Rev. T Mathew Rowgh, of St. Agnes Catholic Church, in Shepherdstown. "This hasn't happened for centuries. For him to recognize his limited ability and to step aside, I really do, I think it's a good move."
Benedict's resignation will be effective Feb. 28 at 8 p.m. The Vatican has said a new pope will be appointed before next month's end – specifically prior to Easter Sunday on March 31.
The pope's advance notice of resignation gives the Cardinals, who will subsequently hold a conclave to elect a new leader for the world's more than one billion Catholics, a chance to plan, Hall said.
"… Instead of Holy Smokes the pope just died, I need to grab a plane ticket," he said.
Senior Pastor Fr. Brian Shoda, of St. Leo the Great Catholic Church in Inwood, said Benedict's predecessor set a paramount example by seeing his papacy through to the end of his life, erstwhile traveling the word.
"You can't just stay in the Vatican," Shoda said.
"Personally I applaud the decision," he said. "I think it sets a good precedent that when you're not feeling well and you're not up to it …"
Looking forward, both Hall and Rowgh found optimism in the pope's otherwise unconventional resignation.
"I think it's hopeful to the church that we might have some new insight and prescriptive on issues," Rowgh said.
Issues clouding Benedict's eight-year papacy included the church's ongoing sexual abuse crisis and financial scandals.
"Not that I'm glad he's stepping down, but I'm hopeful of something new, something different," Hall said.
Following Benedict's last day, the world will wait for the white smoke to pour out of the Vatican's chimney, signaling a new pontiff has been elected.
"There seems to be quite a few Italian Cardinals, so there's a chance it could be an Italian," Rowgh said the potential appointment. "I don't know that any of our American Cardinals are up to the task or would be selected."
There has never been an American pope.
"I think it would be nice to have somebody from a third-world country, but who knows," Rowgh said.
Shoda had one specific prediction about who the next pope won't be.
"It won't be me. Believe me, it won't be me," he laughed.

Deep fingering and ass licking gets this scene off to a ball achingly horny start! It's not long before tanned lad Marco slowly slides his massive meat into Iago and the speed soon picks up into a full blown ass plowing. Anyone would stay rock solid with that amount of cock inside, and Iago is no exception; his dick is constantly throbbing and his ass obviously screaming out for more as he gets it harder and harder.
