WASHINGTON — A group representing Catholic hospitals Saturday rallied behind President Barack Obama's health care bill ahead of a House vote in which anti-abortion lawmakers could play a decisive role.

The chief executive of the Catholic Health Association, Carol Keehan, wrote on the group's Web site that although the legislation isn't perfect, it represents a "major first step" toward covering all Americans and would make "great improvements" for millions of people. The more than 600 Catholic hospitals across the country do not provide abortions as a matter of conscience.

Sister Carol Keehan appears to be a liberal nun who thinks that funding abortions is a minor aspect of Healthcare Bill.

When ever I see something like this I look for Jim Wallis’ fingerprints. They are all over it. Check out the connections between Wallis and Keehan:

Jim Wallis is one of the signers of this letter being touted by the media as well;

Not really a Catholic group — infact, probably non-Catholic. Someone said they were employee (execs) of Catholic hospitals.

At the best they are CINOs.

I tried doing some keyword searches and failed (Keehan for example). I felt I should have been able to find articles about her and her organization.

I am adding some keywords such as SisterCarol and Keehan so we can track these articles...

She is a liberal nun. Does that explain the I-don't-wear-a-habit-SYNDROME.

Believe NUNS or SISTERS like her just where a cross or cruxifix.

[topher]

She is such a liberal nun that in pictures of her, there is no cross or crucifix to be seen on her...

I guess that makes her a super liberal nun. Maybe she is an female ordained priest in her church.

Sounds like some bishops should talk to her...
