Kansas Bishop Takes on Obama's Pawn

Tony Perkins, FRC Update: While no date has been set yet for nomination hearings on Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius to become the new Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, the opposition outside of Congress is growing fast. Today Governor Sebelius' own archbishop, Joseph Naumann, expressed his disappointment that the pro-abortion Catholic Mrs. Sebelius is being selected to take charge of U.S. health policy. This is not the first time Archbishop Naumann has publicly rebuked Governor Sebelius for her strong support of abortion. Last year he took the extraordinary step of asking her to refrain from taking communion in the "hope that it would motivate Governor Sebelius to reconsider her support for what is an intrinsic evil -- the destruction of innocent human life by abortion" and "to protect others from being misled by the Governor's public support and advocacy for legalized abortion." Unfortunately, among those being misled are many Republican senators who are putting political motivations in front of standing up for what is right. Governor Sebelius is also coming under fire in her home state for both cutting a deal that benefited a political crony of hers to the tune of $700,000 in taxpayer funds and for diverting money from programs that support pregnant women and towards groups like Planned Parenthood. Governor Sebelius has proven she is unfit to be HHS Secretary yet for the most part the U.S. Senate is quiet. Please contact senators today to oppose her nomination.
