Sister Cecilia has lived in the convent in Rome for 50 years

I'm speechless.

I wonder if anyone has told her about his supporting his cousin burning Christians in churches in Kenya

So you can live abroad for 50 years and still vote in US elections?

"I've never met him, but he seems to be a good man with a good private life."

"A good private life" from the perspective of terrorists and black nationalists, for sure.

From Ike to Hussein. Quite a fall.

So...is she aware of his abortion position?
I fear the good sister may be senile.

What’s the difference...in another five years and she’d still be voting for Obama.

She only thinks the last time she voted was 1952.

Not necessarily related to this article, but if someone votes absentee, and dies before election day, would their vote still count?

“A 106-year-old American nun living in a convent in Rome could well be the oldest person to vote in the 2008 US Presidential election.”

I don’t believe so. My grandmother-in-law is 104 and she is not even the oldest person voting in Lubbock County (another voter is 105). Grandma is voting for McCain, btw.

Hey, Sister Helena Handbasket, that's no big deal. People hundreds of years older than you are voting for Obama this year. (I didn't say they were alive, but they're definitely older.)

BTW, Sister, can I come to your excommunication ceremony?

This nun needs our prayers to change her heart and support life. She must not realize that in voting the Democratic platform she is advocating for further abortions. This is a mortal sin to support abortions. She is excommunicating herself.

And then, either way, she gets to watch, from abroad, the U.S. spiral into the kind of socialism that has driven her adopted country’s native fertility rate down to around 1.2 children per woman.

(To be fair, McCain might merely help drive it down to maybe 1.6.)

I guess she forgot to get the Papal memo.

I suspect that she will issue a “clarification” after talking to the bishop.

I hope she then lambastes Obama for misleading her. Would get some good press.

"But despite taking part in the 4 November election, Sister Cecilia does not intend to return to the US."

After this story, the Holy Father may have different plans for you Sister. Better start packing.

Sister Cecilia Gaudette, who last voted for President Eisenhower in 1952, has registered to vote

That is priceless and just shows how far ACORN and whatever are willing to spend to find the blind, crippled and crazies in order to convince them to vote for the Messiah.........

This is getting scarier and scarier......

Those nieces can always remember that they lied and tricked her into voting for an abortion pusher. And in 30 years they can look back on their lives and fully appreciate the six abortions between them that Obama helped to insure their right to choose. What a rich legacy.
At least they won’t be punished.

E vidently, at 106, Sister Cecilia has vacated her brain pan. God bless the old lady but she did not become a nun to vote for the likes of Hussein Obama, an enemy of our Faith if ever there was one.

For the first time in my life, I think I’ve come up with a good reason for nuns NOT to wear a habit:

obviously that bonnet is pulled just a little too tight and has blocked off the flow of blood to her brain.

How else explain a “Bride of Christ” endorsing a baby-killer who can’t even produce an authentic birth certificate for us to look at.

Far more scary than senile old nuns, however, are the “Catholics for Obama” - the Leftists who equate melting the ice-caps with drilling holes in the skulls of infants. Of course, there are precedents: the Patriotic Catholic Church of Communist China and, during the Cold War, traitorous clergy, religious and laity working in Soviet satellite countries to undermine the Faith.

"I've never met him, but he seems to be a good man with a good private life. That's the first thing. Then he must be able to govern," she adds.

That statement alone troubles me more than anything, mainly because it is the same reasoning I believe the uneducated are voting for Obama, "he seems like a nice man." Well Sister, people are not always what they seem. Remember our Lord's warning about wolves in sheep clothing? God help her.

So this sister at 106 can be trusted to know the issues enough to vote, yet we cannot trust the recollection of Percy Sutton, almost 20 years younger, about Obama’s education funding?

This poor old lady thinks she’s voting for another FDR. All she knows is what she hears from the Euro media. She has no idea that she has now been used to promote an evil cause.
