"The Killing Must End”: Christian Defense Coalition to Launch Major Post-Inaugural Pro-Life Campaign
LifeSiteNews ^ | 11/5/08 | Kathleen Gilbert

WASHINGTON, D.C., November 5, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Christian Defense Coalition has today announced "The Birmingham Letter Project," a major pro-life wake-up call to the country scheduled to take place in the nation's capital upon the inauguration of Barack Obama. Obama's presidential victory immediately galvanized the pro-life movement, as the new president-elect's advocacy of the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) threatens to uproot all the legal victories of the pro-life movement of the past 30 years to restrict abortions on a state and federal level.

"It is clear that Mr. Obama will continue the tragic violence against our nation's women and children which has resulted in over 50,000,000 abortions," said Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney, Director of the Christian Defense Coalition, in a recent statement.

The focus of the project, according to the press release, will be "to mobilize a public, prayerful and prophetic witness for life to challenge the radical pro-abortion policies of President-elect Barack Obama" on January 21-24, 2009.

"'The Birmingham Letter Project' is about empowering and unleashing the pro-life community to stand against this injustice just as civil rights workers stood against the injustice of segregation, violence and racism a generation ago," said Mahoney.

"We are taking to heart the admonition of Dr. King when he said from a Birmingham jail, 'Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere,' and will passionately devote ourselves toward bringing this war on America's children to an end. …

"We will not go silently into the night and allow the violence to continue. Instead, we are issuing this national call for the pro-life community to come to the streets of our nation's capital and be a prayerful voice for those who have no voice.

"Our message is clear. Now is the time. We are the people. The killing must end."

More information on the developing project is scheduled for release on Thursday.

All conservative PAC ( and this especially includes Pro-lifers) **MUST** work for honest elections.

They must do this in addition to the other wonderful work they are doing. Volunteers must start early to comb through registrations, sending literature and challenging any names on any mail that the post office returns. As the election approaches they must challenge all irregularities and be poll watchers in election day.

We can't get pro-life legislators if the Democratic Marxist Party steals the pro-life votes!

I expect those that don’t follow Christ to do whatever. But when those who call themselves Christians willingly cast a vote for the most radical pro abortion politician that ever walked the earth, they are without excuse. The blood is on their hands now.

I was thinking today that the biggest opening salvo that we conservatives could make (in the war to re-take America) is for the annual Right to Life March in DC, in January 2009, to have TEN times as many people attending as in the past. It would send a powerful message.

If I lived within driving distance I’d go.

I think a lot of (idiots) who voted for Hussein don’t know who he really is, what he really plans or what his history is, at all.

They’ll soon find out.

I want to hear from the supposed "pro-lifers" whose consciences somehow allowed them to vote for Obama. As Ricky Ricardo said, "They've got some 'splaining to do."

The person I want to see speak more than anything is Dr. Alveda King (MLK, Jr.’s niece).

Like this Osama bastard (I literally mean that) even cares. His first order of business will be to try to pass the Freedom of Choice Act.

There were plenty of Hispanic Catholics in Florida and evangelicals in other states who voted for Hussein.

I know a guy who said he was supporting Hussein even though the “only” issue he disagreed with him on was abortion. Idiocy. This guy calls himself a strong Christian.

I sent him the youtube “born alive protection act” video. Nothing. He still supports Hussein.

Tragic.

Hussein.
^^^^^^^^^^^^

We should use this name at every opportunity.

Please note that I wrote the “Democratic MARXIST Party” in my post. I intend to do that **every** time.

As well as God's vengeance! They need to repent now, or He will bring them to their knees.
