This article-— and the AP source article -— doesn’t say who it is. LCWR?

Christians Rip Glenn Beck Over ‘Social Justice’ Slam
Right-Wing Host Conflates Christian ‘Social Justice’ With Nazism, Communism
By HANNA SIEGEL
March 12, 2010

http://abcnews.go.com/WN/glenn-beck-social-justice-christians-rage-back-nazism/story?id=10085008

Glenn Beck has stirred the pot again, but President Obama can rest easy for a few days because he was not the central target this time.

Backers of the concept of Christian “social justice,” however, were not so lucky. Beck compared it to communism and Nazism — and at least one religious leader is calling for Christians to stop watching the conservative broadcaster, radio host and best-selling author.

On his radio and television shows, Beck suggested any church promoting “social justice” or “economic justice” merely was using code words for Nazism and communism.

“I beg you look for the words social justice or economic justice on your church Web site,” he said. “If you find it, run as fast as you can. Social justice and economic justice, they are code words. ... Am I advising people to leave their church? Yes! If they’re going to Jeremiah Wright’s church, yes!

(today’s nuns seem to be mainly well-behaved Marxist lesbian revolutionaries)

Do they really think that if they lie openly enough and loudly enough that everyone will simply accept it.

The average American has a good opinion of Nuns, and wouldn't think they would lie. Nuns weren't caught up in the sex scandals like Priests.

The nuns should be supporting free medical care to illegal aliens at Catholic hospitals. Most illegal aliens are Catholic!

I support churches paying property taxes to fund gov't programs that churches demand from government.

OK if we get Obama Care then all those Catholic hospitals will have to close (as if so many haven’t closed already). For all its stances on abortion and other issues, the RC Church is rather socialistic in its attitudes such as labor, economy, immigration etc. I belive abortion is murder,but I think the RC church has gone awry in its socialistic attitudes on so many other things.

Trust me, this endorsement from the heads of female religious orders carries about as much weight as endorsements from labor unions. The religious orders in question are probably the aging and decrepit ones that won't even be around anymore in 30 years.

Someone needs to explain to these sisters the basic Catholic principle of subsidiarity.

Are these real nuns or the angry radical feminist or lesbian type that don’t care about what the church stands for?

Some 60 leaders of religious orders representing 59,000 Catholic nuns Wednesday sent lawmakers a letter

Communist Baloney Service (CBS News) is saying the same thing. This so-called "report" is notable primarily for its utter lack of specificity. WHO ARE these "some 60 leaders"? What order(s) or organsiation(s) thereof, if any, do they represent? What is the actual content of this supposed letter?

Inquiring minds want to know. Brainless dolts just lap up the MSM swill without a moment's critical thought.

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

Congressional Dems on Twitter
http://www.arrghpaine.com/congressional-dems-on-twitter

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!

Are these nuns also pushing for female ordination and freedom from the Vatican?

Seems like the USCCB has been very solid on Healthcare and the abortion provisions it currently contains...

The article stated:

Some 60 leaders of religious orders representing 59,000 Catholic nuns Wednesday sent lawmakers a letter urging them to pass the Senate health care bill.

Maybe these 59,000 nuns should elect 60 new leaders, and retire the existing 60...

Just like the “Nuns for Choice” bunch — Bride of Christ, they dare to wear His ring. He’s going to have a loooooong chat with these women when their time is due.
