@paper000000 I love abortion. Abortion is pro-woman and far more moral than the Catholic stance. All these silly virgin nuns and celibate priests who think their chastity gives them some sort of special insight is the kind of ignorance that makes people like this sister an easy target for the health care industries tactics in taking away health care from poor Catholics.

@hersheystaste4life And how many more of the unborn will die because she got Obamacare passed? Pray a rosary? Are you serious?

Cardinal Francis George: "The bill which was passed is fundamentally flawed. The Executive Order is meaningless. Sr. Carol is mistaken in thinking that this is pro-life legislation," he stated. George added that the CHA "and other so-called Catholic groups" have "weakened the moral voice of the bishops in the U.S." by their disobedience.

Everyone pray a rosary, and then look at this woman. Our society values youthfulness and cosmetics when it comes to beauty, but what you see before you is no Catholic nun. She is the closest thing you'll see to a living angel and the highest order of saint.

You all should protect her. If not for goodness sake, then at least when the strength in your bones fades, you won't have to regret wishing you had. I love her. And nothing, not even God himself, could destroy my faith in that sentiment.

One of the most superb cum guzzlers I've ever met was a Catholic nun. My God, but she could ever swallow down to the last drop.

She's a disingenuous traitor who has excommunicated herself. She needs to be run out of town.

the genocide needs to stop.

Dear Sister, the only thing stopping abortion is the Presidential Executive Order which can be withdrawn at any time - the Health Bill itself does not stop abortion funding. Clearly you lied to about this and misrepresented Catholics on a massive scale. You have no other choice then to resign and repent. The fact that you are openly opposed to the Bishops Conference and traded the lives of unborn babies for a generalist health agenda, means you are a closet abortion apologist.

[BCSWowbagger]

The only question I have is: are you being disingenuous, Sister? Or simply ignorant? The USCCB -- not my favorite organization -- has an excellent rebuttal of the "Jost Thesis," proving fairly conclusively that the current bill PAYS FOR ABORTIONS.

If Sr. Keehan's recent public dissent on the Federal Abortion Bill is the result of an honest error, it is tragic. If the result of dishonesty, it is radically scandalous.

The Catholic bishops of Denver have sent out an urgent message:

"Regrettably, groups like Network and the Catholic Health Association have done a grave disservice to the American Catholic community by undermining the leadership of the nation's Catholic bishops, sowing confusion among faithful Catholics, and misleading legislators through their support of the Senate bill," they continue.

"Do not be fooled. Nothing has changed.
