I want to call it a set-up.

I think many of suspected from the get-go that Davis was exaggerating about the nature of her "meeting" with the pope.

She is now an active anti-gay activist and should be sent back to jail.

The Vatican spokesman emphasized that the meeting with Ms. Davis was arranged by the office of the Vatican’s ambassador in Washington, not by anyone in Rome — including the pope.

“The pope did not enter into the details of the situation of Mrs. Davis, and his meeting with her should not be considered a form of support of her position in all of its particular and complex aspects."
