Hillary's Campaign Removes Mother Teresa Image
The Clinton campaign removed an image of Hillary Clinton with Mother Teresa from a campaign video in response to a complaint from the late nun's religious order. Joseph Cella, president of the politically conservative Catholic group Fidelis, said he brought the video to the attention of Sister Nirmala, Teresa's successor as the Superior General of the India-based Missionaries of Charity, The Politico reported. Cella said it was "wholly inappropriate, disrespectful and disturbing that Hillary Clinton shamelessly exploited Mother’s image as a political tool." Cella disclosed that in his letter to Nirmala, "We pointed out that the use of Blessed Teresa’s image was particularly inappropriate and disturbing given Sen. Clinton’s staunch support of abortion both here in the United States and abroad.

Clinton spokesman Phil Singer said: "Sen. Clinton was proud to have worked with and known Mother Teresa. Her order asked us to remove it from the video, so we did."
