Piers Morgan finds pope’s reason for resigning ‘a bit lame’

Wait, we thought CNN’s Piers Morgan was one of the original “pope truthers,” refusing to buy Pope Benedict XVI’s explanation that he was retiring due to “lack of strength of mind and body.” Does Morgan’s latest tweet mean that he now believes the pope is telling the truth?

@piersmorgan Lets see how you feel about that when you’re 85

@piersmorgan Really? At 85? It’s NOBLE, actually, that he stepped aside to allow someone else who could best fulfill the duties.

@piersmorgan seems reasonable, it is not like he is 85 or anything. ;-)

Morgan pushes his finely honed skills as an investigative journalist to the limit.

The Pope looked absolutely fine to me today. Am I missing something?

Pope John Paul II survived 2 assassination attempts, cancer scares, Parkinson’s & severe arthritis - but battled on for 27yrs. Inspiring.

Speaking of battling adversity and inspiring millions in the process…

To avoid jetlag in London, I’ve stayed on NY time, watching Downton Abbey until 3am. Maggie Smith is the world’s greatest living actress.
