skullcapThe Pope is visiting DC and President Obama takes him out for an afternoon on the Potomac . . . sailing on the presidential yacht.

They're admiring the sights when, all of a sudden the Pope's hat (ecclesiastical skullcap) blows off his head and out into the water.

Secret service guys start to launch a boat, but Obama waves them off, saying "Wait, wait. I'll take care of this. Don't worry."

Obama then steps off the yacht onto the surface of the water and walks out to the Holy Father's little hat, bends over and picks it up, then walks back to the yacht and climbs aboard. He hands the hat to the Pope amid stunned silence.

The next morning, Fox News leads with the story, "Obama Can't Swim."
