I still crack up every time I think of that.
It's funny, her "resume": social justice, peace, anti-racism work, gender equality, human rights and female ordination to the Catholic Church., especially the "social justice", and "human rights" parts don't seem to apply to the unborn...
There appears to be a vacuum on the order of 10-6 torr inside her skull.
With those ear decorations hanging from her lobes and that vacant expression on her face, this misguided simple woman is hardly a nun.
Ah. That explains it. A dissident.

Something the sister should read about ‘social justice’, as the Lord said “The poor you will always have with you”.
Kennedy and Obama Care
Bookworm on Aug 26 2009 at 8:06 am | Filed under: Britain, England, Health
I said I wouldn’t blog about Kennedy himself and I’ll keep my word. I would like to point out something, though, about Kennedy’s health care, since word is out that the Dems have instantly leaped upon his death to advance their health care agenda. If anyone among the population is paying attention, this should backfire.
The fact is that Kennedy is a poster child for the chasm Congress hopes to create between “their” health care and ours. Kennedy was a man who abused his body fiercely throughout his life. Although he’d apparently given up the worst of his vices, he was still obese, which is a big no-no in the Nanny state. He had reached the demographic point of no return, since he, a male, was diagnosed with brain cancer after his 75th birthday. Lastly, he had an incredibly aggressive cancer which, absent the most sophisticated and expensive treatment, would have carried him off in months, not . . . what was it? Years? Kennedy survived, not because he got the Obama Care the Left is demanding for the rest of us, but because he got the best that American medicine is capable of providing.
More than that, Kennedy would have gotten his care even if he had become ill after Obama Care became a reality. This is because he is part of the nomenklatura. He was a high level party apparatchik. In the Soviet days, these guys always got good care, even if their stalwart comrades were lying two to a bed, no sheets, in a ward crammed with the sick and dying.
I forgot which talk show host (Limbaugh? Beck?) made headlines for saying that Steven Hawking would have been dead under the rationing that is both implicit and explicit in the various proposed health care bills. Many sneering opponents pointed out the obvious which is that, despite living in England, land of death panels, Hawking is, in fact, still alive. Sneering aside, Hawking is a perfect example of the unegalitarian realities of socialized medicine. Hawking became ill when he was already famous. The rich and powerful always get saved under socialized medicine, precisely so that, without ever having been subject to its statist cruelty, they can become poster children for the system.
Now, without Kennedy even being cold in his grave, and without socialized medicine having yet become the American reality, the Left is trying to turn Kennedy into a poster child for American socialized medicine, just as they’ve turned Hawking into the poster child for British socialized medicine. And just as Hawking’s poster child status is part of a big lie, I hope that the average American has the wit and knowledge to see that Kennedy’s status is too.

Oy, this is a “nun”!??!?!?! Lawsa! Mother Angelica she ain’t! She wants women priests.....I recall John Paul II spoke on that issue but apparently “sister” didn’t get the memo.
Rumor has it that she may once have been Catholic but clearly no more.
I other words she's a Leftist/Liberal muddle-brained egg head.

The Inquisition is coming. The theologically leprous will be outcast. Unclean. The good Sister is representative of those who have emptied our seminaries and our monasteries and our nunneries.
I don’t know what green primeval ooze is dripped from her cranium out her ears, but it appears to have supplanted the Faith, edged out Scripture and removed the Sacred Tradition from whatever remains of her moral fiber. Good bye and good riddance. Those who remove themselves from the Faith need to be recognized by the Church.
