“Is there ANY way to protest the use of our tax dollars to foreign countries (like to Mexico to fund abortion)?”

I think your post, addressed in letter form to your representatives, would make a most excellent protest against tax dollars for abortion. Likewise confronting your senators or congressman in person with your questions would make an excellent protest.

But you raise an excellent question. I had thought about putting tax money owed to the federal government in an escrow account, writing my objection to the IRS making my reasons very clear for not wanting my money used for homicide by elective abortion and infanticide. The point was to give the IRS a choice--either seize the money or allow me to donate it to a charity that supports alternatives to abortion for pregnant mothers. Either way, I would not voluntarily be supporting the murder of children, and I was willing to go to jail over the issue.

A wise Freeper suggested doing otherwise. He said that withholding my taxes would not prevent President Obama from funding abortion and infanticide, but that it would turn my life upside down and be counterproductive. He suggested finding other ways to protest.

Basically, 50,000,000 children will be killed if this president gets his way with the SCOTUS nominees. Anything you can do to slow him down is a good protest against the murder of children. One suggestion is to inform your friends about President Obama's views on aboriton, including his work against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, and the FOCA. Simply put, most Americans disagree with Mr. Obama, he knows it, and he has lied or otherwise mislead people about his position. Our goal should be to achieve a clear understanding of his positions and to make them widely known to our fellow Americans.

I would suggest writing to your representatives, or calling their offices to voice your objection, and to express your opposition to the Freedom of Choice Act, which Obama has promised to sign. (Taxpayer funded abortion in this country, no right of conscience clause for hospitals that refuse to commit abortion, elimination of all or most parental notification laws for minors, no mandatory offering of alternatives to abortion, and other activities meant to eliminate any “barrier” to abortion.)
