He's been trying to get the Pope to come for about 10 years, and he's always been a weeper, so I'm sure that he would have been teary even without the backstabbing. I don't think he's introspective enough to think that the Pope's words mean that he's been doing it wrong for decades...
The Teabaggers have been after him for years - "doesn't fight hard enough" and such nonsense. The Teabaggers apparently flunked 2nd grade math - they don't know how to count votes and think that screaming is an acceptable substitute.
I think he's tired of it and wants to give them the opportunity them burn the place down without his hands anywhere near it.
