Nuns' voter guide emphasizes amnesty, gun control, climate change
October 09, 2014
A community of Catholic women religious has released a voters’ guide for the 2014 midterm elections, encouraging American voters to support amnesty for undocumented immigrants, government action on climate change, gun control, and defense budget cuts.
The Sisters of Mercy of Silver Spring, Maryland, argue that voters should question political candidates about their views on racial profiling and the UN’s convention on discrimination against women.

Yo, beachcomber, I beg to disagree. They've got lots and lots of habits, they're just all bad.

Ironic isn't it - you'd never know we are 6 years into an administration that is directly aligned with the views they are advocating.

These nuns have it easy. All they do is copy paragraphs from the last platform cooked up by the Democrat Party. (Can they be charged with plagiarism?)
