Bush, First Lady Laura Bush and their daughter Jenna walking to meet the Pope descending from plane\u003cbr/\u003e12. Pope walking down steps of plane\u003cbr/\u003ePope Benedict XVI stepped onto US soil for the first time as pontiff on Tuesday, arriving to a presidential handshake and wild cheering only hours after he admitted that he is \"deeply ashamed\" of the clergy sex abuse scandal that has devastated the American church.\u003cbr/\u003eOn his first papal trip to the US, Benedict gave hundreds of spectators a two-handed wave as he stepped off a special Alitalia airliner that brought\u003cbr/\u003ehim from Rome. \u003cbr/\u003eStudents from a local Catholic school screamed when they saw the pontiff, who shook hands with President George W. Bush, first lady Laura Bush and their daughter, Jenna on the tarmac.\u003cbr/\u003eThe pope and the president left in a motorcade a few minutes later.\u003cbr/\u003eOn the flight to the United States from Rome, Benedict addressed the most painful issue for the Roman Catholic Church in America - clergy sex abuse.\u003cbr/\u003eThe US church has paid out two (b) billion US dollars in abuse costs since 1950, most of that in just the last six years.\u003cbr/\u003e\"It is a great suffering for the church in the United States and for the church in general, for me personally that this could happen,\" the Pope told reporters on the flight from Rome to Washington, speaking in English as he responded to questions submitted by reporters ahead of time.\u003cbr/\u003e\"It's difficult for me to understand how it was possible that priests betrayed in this way their mission to give healing, to give love of God to these children,\" he added.\u003cbr/\u003e\"We are deeply ashamed and we will do all that is possible that this cannot happen in future,\" continued the pontiff.\u003cbr/\u003eBenedict also pledged that paedophiles would not be priests in the Catholic Church.\u003cbr/\u003e\"We will absolutely exclude paedophiles from the sacred ministry,\" Benedict said. \u003cbr/\u003e\"It's more important to have good priests as to have many priests.\"\u003cbr/\u003eHe added, \"We hope that we can do and we have done and will do in the future all what is possible to heal this wound.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSpeaking to AP Television in Washington, DC, Peter Isely, who is on the board of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, said the Pope's comments on Tuesday could be \"the beginning of something really historic\".\u003cbr/\u003e\"Paedophilia is an awful and terrible crime,\" said Isely, who said he himself was abused as a young boy in Wisconsin. \u003cbr/\u003e\"So, if it is the beginning of a dialogue this week, which is going to end in the removal of sex offender clergy around the world, then what has been said today is the beginning of something really historic.\" \u003cbr/\u003eIsely said, however, that if it \"doesn't happen by the end of his visit here, then it's just simply been more words\".\u003cbr/\u003eBenedict's pilgrimage is the first trip by a pontiff to the US since the case of a serial molester in Boston triggered a crisis that spread throughout the country and beyond in 2002. \u003cbr/\u003eHundreds of new accusations - many dating back decades - have surfaced each year since. \u003cbr/\u003eThere were 691 new accusations in 2007 alone, according to an annual report from the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.\u003cbr/\u003eAs head of the Vatican agency that enforces adherence to Catholic doctrine, then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was heavily involved in gaining Vatican approval for the reforms US bishops proposed for the American church. \u003cbr/\u003eThe bishops have since released several reports analyzing the scandal and have pledged that all credibly accused priests will be pulled from public\u003cbr/\u003eministry.\u003cbr/\u003eWhite House press secretary Dana Perino, asked about the pope's comments regarding the clergy sex abuse scandal, said she would not rule out that the topic would come up in conversation between the Pope and the president.\u003cbr/\u003eBut she added she didn't think it was top of Bush's agenda in talking with the Pope.\u003cbr/\u003ePerino said the two leaders would likely discuss human rights, religious tolerance and the fight against violent extremism.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description'
