“The valet is just a delivery boy that somebody wants to set up . . . There are those opposed to the Secretary of State, Tarcisio Bertone. And those who think that Benedict XVI is too weak to lead the Church. And those who think that this is the time to step forward. So it’s become everyone against everyone.”
Well, that's nice.
And yeah, I know it sounds wrong for any priest, even the Pope, to have a butler. Or a valet, or anything Downton Abbey-ish like that -- but no, in fact, BXVI never did take a vow of poverty. He's what used to be called a secular priest, now "diocesan".
