The Wall Street Journal has an interesting piece—an obituary, actually—about Camillo Cibin, who was a bodyguard for six popes, organized security during the Second Vatican Council, and saved the life of John Paul II: For almost 60 years, Camillo Cibin was the silent shadow of six popes...
On Health Care, Drawing the Line... One More Time...
