At least 392 nuns participated in the left’s effort to recall Wisconsin governor Scott Walker. These Catholic gals are supposed to be pro-life and embrace traditional moral values. As a group, they seem intent on replacing the pro-life Walker with a pro-abort/pro-gay marriage secular humanist. I guess the “social justice” sisters support lefty Democrats because they have confused nanny state socialism with charity. Leftist claptrap psychobabble (think radical feminism/”gay equality”/moral relativism ETC) likely also holds a lot of appeal to them. Someone please explain to them that socialism A) doesn’t work B) involves forcible theft of the fruit of citizens’ labor B) requires surrendering liberty to secular statist central planners and C) can only be enforced by a tyranny.Read the entire list at Entitlement Mentality Monitor
Several recaller nuns acted as signature gatherers. Some acted as witnesses to their own signatures or signed twice, which is like voting twice. Many are so old that you have to wonder if they were taken advantage of by younger nuns. I bet the old ones also get a lot of “help” filling out absentee ballots.
There are many in the group with important sounding titles. For example,
Sister Linda Mershon is the President of the order Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration (FSPA). [La Crosse .... this is nothing new]
Sister Celine Goessl not only signed the petition, but acted as a signature gatherer. She is listed as Provincial Superior for the Holy Cross Sisters (USA Province) and as President of the Sisters of Mercy of the Holy Cross Corporation. [Merrill, WI]
Sister Carol Thresher is Provincial Superior of the Sisters of the Divine Savior (USA Province). [Wauwatosa, WI]
Sister Regina Pacis Meservey is a member of the Board of Trustees for Alverno College. [Milwaukee]
Sister Joanne Schatzlein is a Trustee of Cardinal Stritch University. [Milwaukee]
Sister Sara Jean Donegan sits on the Corporate Board of Mount Mary College. [Milwaukee]
And no less than four nun recallers sit on the Board of Trustees for Viterbo University: [La Crosse]
Sister Marie DesJarlais, Sister Karen Kappell, Sister Lucy Ann Meyer and Sister Romana Klaubauf.
The first one listed from the FSPA in La Crosse is Obama staffer Sister Marlene Weisenbeck.
