text: Another great Catholic once said something similar.  He advised that a prince should look to the masses to rise to power.  He then suggested looking to the elites to stay in power.  Keeping the masses placated is important.  Like that great Catholic, Our Holy Father knows the value of keeping the masses on his side, and in keeping with the principles expounded by that author, Christ's Vicar isn't above a little massaging of the truth.  Hence, his "no tolerance" language, which placates the masses, coupled with his "business as usual" which placates the elites, in this case the clergy, who know they can continue to count on the Vatican to help cover for them when they get out of line with a child or young person.  Brave of Papa Francis, a True Disciple of Machiavelli!
