Sister Simone Campbell, a Sister of Social Service from Sacred Heart University in New Orleans, Louisiana; Executive Director of NETWORK, a Catholic Social Justice Advocacy Ministry, spoken of by James Carville as a person to deliver tomorrow night's Benediction at the Convention, is speaking at this moment to the Delegates about the 9 State, 2,700 mile, journey she made with 'Nuns on the Bus', in June; saying they were supporting the U.S. Bishops teaching on the Ryan Budget Plan, and asserting we share responsibility for one another, proclaiming, "I am my sister's keeper".    She is critiquing the Romney-Ryan budget proposals and its adverse affect on needy American  families and disputes Paul Ryan's statement that his Budget Plan is in line with Catholic moral teaching.  Sr. Simone says this is part of her pro-life position, and that this immoral budget does not reflect that.  She says that's what the Nuns of the Bus are about.  Ed Schulz says this speech may be the most substantively effective speech at this DNC yet.  EWTN moderator in an August discussion with him and James Carville last month on CNN, referred to Sister Simone Campbell, as a, "dissident nun", and that NETWORK has been criticized by the Vatican............tdp
