This is what happens when hippie chicks are too ugly to even be attractive to hippie men...

A progressive group of U.S. nuns has called on Congress to impeach President Bush and Vice President Cheney because of their roles in the war in Iraq.
“The National Coalition of American Nuns is impelled by conscience to call you to act promptly to impeach President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney for ... high crimes and misdemeanors,” the group wrote in a letter written on behalf of its board members.
The letter says that impeachment is warranted for their “deceiving the public under the false pretense that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction” and “destroying” the reputation of the United States and the good will of other nations.
“The time for impeachment is now — before the example of George W. Bush’s regime is set in stone,” they wrote. “Future generations will thank you for preserving the freedom of our nation and its relation to the entire human community.”
The coalition was founded in 1969 for individual nuns dedicated to issues of social justice and human rights.
The letter was approved during a mid-August meeting of the board, held in Chicago. During that same meeting, the board unanimously adopted statements opposing all war and affirming peacemaking efforts. “Rather than continuing support of a just-war theory, a more compassionate church would oppose all war and teach peacemaking skills for all levels of government and interpersonal conflict resolution,” the statement reads.
The board also adopted statements pledging to work to “moderate the impact we make on planet Earth,” and supporting nuclear disarmament and relief efforts for the poor in Africa.
Too bad nun of them realize they need to kick their BDS habit.
Things like this could lead to the loss of credibility for nuns everywhere. What, have they been in a convent for the past 6 years?
Unbelievable.
Progressive politics is a nasty habit. I’m having nun of it.

I suggest that these nuns go to Al Qaeda and teach conflict resolution skills to bin Laden and his boys.
It would be more appropriate if they called for impeaching a few hundred bishops.
Their tax-exempt status should be looked into.
They were not looking to God, but for a vehicle to promote their “Peace beads” agenda...
Note that I’m pretty sure that the “coalition” has no official status in the Catholic Church, and is not the same thing as a religious order.
Seperation of Church and State, unless you are a liberal.
What they mean is something must be done to get George Bush out of the White House before his policies bring about a victory and a change for the better in Iraq and democrats lose some elections because of it.
They need to get laid.

These nuns need a change of habit.
Progressive = Liberal
There’s a nasty habit to get into.
Anyone care to place a bet on what their position on abortion is?
Who gives a flying...nun?
