Pope Joins Twitter – Is Immediately Greeted By Profane, Vile Leftist Tweets

The Pope joined Twitter this weekend… And was immediately greeted by vile, leftist tweets.
Life News reported:

Pope Benedict joined Twitter today and was greeted by hateful tweets from Catholic bashers laced with profanity. Pope Benedict XVI ’s new Twitter account has been revealed, @Pontifex, and it already has more than 100,000 followers and is expected to be eventually followed by millions.

The Vatican revealed the new personal Twitter account for Pope Benedict XVI, and said the leader of the Catholic Church would answer one question about his faith every week — with the first coming next Wednesday. Users of Twitter can send questions using the hashtag #askpontifex or #B16 and church officials said the first tweets from the account would come this week…

…Pope Benedict himself will hit the button to send the first tweet from the account, but others will send tweets on his behalf frequently. The term @Pontifex means “bridge builder” in Latin.

Immediately after the announcement, the account was hit with a rash of vile tweets.

Roseanne Barr led the hate brigade:
