Pelosi: Pope Francis ‘Starting to Sound Like a Nun’ September 23, 2013 - 1:20 PM By Michael W. Chapman
(CNSNews.com) – Pope Francis is “starting to sound like a nun,” said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a Catholic, when asked about some of the Pope’s recent remarks concerning issues such as abortion and homosexuality.
In a Sept. 22 interview on CNN’s Situation Room, host Candy Crolwey asked Pelosi, “Before we go, Pope Francis is calling for a new balance between the chruch’s spiritual and political missions. He says the Catholic Church should not interfere spiritually in the lives of gays. He also called for a larger decision-making role for Catholic women. We ask Nancy Pelosi , one of the nation’s most prominent Catholics, for her reaction.”
Pelosi said, “Starting to sound like a nun. The Pope is starting to sound like the nuns.”
“Now, his Holiness is obviously a very revered figure,” said Pelosi. “I was there for his inauguration. And I being Catholic believed that he was chosen Pope by the intercession of the Holy Spirit, so I pay attention to what he says. And I can tell you that there is great joy among Catholics and friends of Catholics as to respect that his Holiness pays to all of God’s creation and members of the church and then beyond that. It’s really quite remarkable. It’s a source of joy to us all.”
When Crowley mentioned that the Pope’s remarks might not be “a source of joy to all Catholics because I’ve seen conservative Catholics express some reservations about it,” Pelosi said, “I don’t know about them because certainly when it was another Pope who had something else to say, they wanted to hold us all to it.”

Pelosi is probably referring to the lesbian commie American nuns. Not a complement in my book.
Witch..... with a B
Nancy...did your parents have any children that lived...I bet they regret that.

Well, not really - CINO...........
“starting to sound like the nuns.”
As in saying things that have some vague rleationship to actual church doctrine rather than saying abortion is treasured Catholic value, like she does.
I’m sorry, I can’t have any respect for the Catholic church until she is excommunicated.
He was chosen Pope by the intercession of the Holy Spirit ... I pay attention to what he says ... it’s a source of joy to us all.
... and like all good libtards everywhere ... especially my buddies the Clintons, Reid and Obozo ... I am amazingly adept at lying!
Ah yes that practicing Catholic.... /s
Wow! I’m not Catholic, but what an arrogant wench this woman is!
Pope condemns abortion as product of ‘throwaway culture’
Don't look now sanfrannan, but you're next in line to be condemned by this Pope whom you think sounds like a nun ......
Ms Pelosi, please stop talking so the people will keep thinking you are a smart person.
What an idiot she is. Today Cdl Burke said that she should be excommunicated. He’s the top legal person at the Vatican and is actually in charge of these things, and he wouldn’t say this without the Pope’s authorization.
If she thinks the Pope agrees with her or “the nuns” on anything, she’s sadly mistaken. The faux “nuns” she is talking about are still under investigation and, furthermore, one of them issued an outraged statement about Francis just today.
Boy did she ever distort his message. Wow ... the stupidity is strong with this one.
Someone should do the water test on Nan.
I suspect she does NOT weigh as much as a duck.
Dumb as a box of rocks.
Any Catholic who doesn’t understand the fullness of truth; education, experience, theological and philosophically based biblical teaching any pope has gone through and given is too out if it to call themselves catholic, but a major public figure.
Really when are we going to have a true discussion on voting privileges? She was once two people away from the presidency. Make it stop
Good God.. how about excommunicating the bitch and calling it a day.. Offload Biden and Kerry along with her.
Sounds like a good plan to me.
How does that harridan keep receiving communion?
