No, Pope Benedict did not specifically "smackdown" anybody, nor did he mention the union-busting Wisconsin Governor by name. But, according to Zenit, Pope Benedict did recall Pope John Paul II's words of affection to, and solidarity with, workers at Terni during a recent audience. I submit one has a hard time imagining those words coming from the mouth of the mean-spirited Governor of the Badger State.
