Exactly how is it like saying the pope is Jesus Christ? Also being Catholic, I haven't met any Catholics who worship Mary, though Catholics do pray to her as the mother of Jesus. I never seen someone Catholic actually pray to a saint. But honestly, many of those things seem like a bit of FUD to Catholics spread by people from other denomination, a sort of here is what is wrong with the Catholic Church, a possible self justification. The Catholic denomination has its problems, much bigger problems than having the Pope as the head of their church, the misconception of who they worship. Like I said, I think those things you point out there are mostly FUD.
