These are the Presentation Sisters, my cousin is a member. :) They stopped over at the mother house in Dubuque yesterday.

Mercy's going also

Good for you Sister Jean. It is a good thing for all of us to do at some point in our lives.

Hurray for the Nuns on the bus!

Do they have a schedule? Where are they going?

DC is mighty ... fiercely hot and humid right now!

Hooray for the Sisters!

How nice ..
expressing your Free thoughts!

not I but many others to protest budget cuts

PLEASE also let them know ..
they need to also highlight
the LOSS of our HONORABLE Law Enforcers
as a result of the "Fast/Furious" ..
(they can highlight and HONOR The memory of Mr Terry .. someONE .. a honorable Law Enforcer doing his duty .. who lost his life due to this Fast/Furious gun-running).

and to note the numbers of DISABLED (Service-Connect) Women and Men ..
who are homeless .. not getting care or services ..

Sis, are you really going to Washington?
you be safe......
what are you going to protest?

no,but many are

good that would be a long trip for you......
they are protesting what?

budget cuts

Ok...but if they are gonna raise the budget tell WE want more Value!

Give em heck Sister! And be careful.

My prayers are with you!

Protest the Fast and Furious Exec order, too. Be safe

Wooo! :D Tell them to raise the taxes for wealthy ppl who waste money as well, thats something I hate seeing :/

A wealthy person who wastes money is wasting his or her OWN money.

The government, meanwhile, wastes OUR money.

If you're so godammed worried about money being wasted, why are you not complaining about the BILLIONS in PUBLIC money that Obama has wasted on funding "green energy" companies that have gone bankrupt? When he knew perfectly well how risky these companies were from a business standpoint?

Have you ANY idea how much money the government wastes??? Any idea at all???

I'm tired of this shallow-minded thinking that raising taxes on the wealthy is somehow supposed to make the economy better, or make the government's finances better. It won't put a dent in it at all -- but it will make liberals like you feel good, won't it? And isn't that what it's all about -- making yourselves "feel good"?

Be careful

what are you protesting?

budget cuts

I agree with that....

I marched in DC protesting the Vietnam war in the late 60's

Be careful and stay safe.

With all due respect, Sister, I think your sentiments are misplaced here.

The thing we should be protesting is government waste -- not "budget cuts."

For instance, the Obama Administration has wasted billions of taxpayer dollars on "green energy" companies that have gone bankrupt. He knew perfectly well, by the way, that these companies were financially risky from a business standpoint.

Sister, have you any idea how much money the government wastes? Any idea how "high on the hog" high-level government officials live?

These people are so financially incompetent that they couldn't run a Dairy Queen. If we had financially competent people in government for a change, we'd have money coming out of our ears. We wouldn't NEED any budget cuts.
