Archbishop Nienstedt of St.Paul diocese, asked that a letter be read at all the masses today,advising parishioners to contact their Representatives
and tell them to vote NO on the health care bill until there was a stronger pro life amendment in the bill.
What is pro life about allowing 45,000 people die every year because of lack of health care, or Seniors who can't afford their medications because of the donut hole. ?
Meanwhile, in a rare public disagreement that will reverberate among the nation's 70 million Catholics, leaders of religious orders representing 59,000 nuns sent lawmakers a letter urging lawmakers to pass the Senate health care bill.
Expected to come before the house today, the measure contains abortion funding restrictions that the bishops say don't go far enough.
Everyone knows the Nuns are the backbone and the conscience of the church
I think we should trust those ladies who work with the ill and the indigent.
I did call my Representative and I asked him to support the bill and I think everyone should do the same.
Yes some of our Representatives will lose their seats, but it is a sacrifice they will never regret

Thanks for the heads up on my blog! I was watching this am and got tired of listening to the callers and the negative Representatives....after I put the mute on so many times, I just turned it off....hubby turned it back on and now I'm listening to the same old shit....abortion will be paid for, it will be government run healthcare, and on and on....have these people not been listening for the last year? Some lady called and said she has insurance, and now she thinks she'll be forced into a gov't run system....how many times has the president said....if you have insurance, nothing will change? How can the congress people be so blind, when they supposedly have all the facts? I don't get it! It's not the bill I wanted, but we have to do something!! Hoping for some good luck coming our way today, despite the craziness!!!
"What is pro life about allowing 45,000 people die every year..."
