Stupak responded to that with something like, "When I want an opinion, I don't ask nuns." He says he talks to bishops.
I saw that, and it was really horrible, not to mention offensive.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Damnit, Vortex, quit confusing me! One day you're all "Hey, look, top Vatican staff say Harry Potter is the Devil's spawn!" and I'm all, Dudes, that's it, I'm outta there, and the next day you're all "Hey, look, nuns kick ass and rock the house for social justice!" and I'm all, Yeah, baby, yeah! You're giving me total theological whiplash.

I sent out one more job application today and found a few more where I'll apply. Also wrote a few pages of my dissertation. I think the dissertation is almost done, except for a few things that I'm not sure about that I emailed my advisor about and he hasn't gotten back to me.

Rachel Maddow did a segment on Stupak taking on the nuns last night, and intro'd it with the oh-so-true words, "I have several nuns in my family, and believe me, you don't want to mess with them. They will cut you."

Way to go, nuns!

The conservative Democrat dismissed the action by the White House saying, “When I’m drafting right to life language, I don’t call up the nuns.” He says he instead confers with other groups including “leading bishops, Focus on the Family, and The National Right to Life Committee.”
