President George W. Bush explains how his mother's miscarriage influenced him to be pro-life.

"I never expected to see the remains of the fetus, which she had saved in a jar to bring to the hospital,” President Bush told NBC. There was a human life, a little brother or sister.”

It's ironic that his mother is pro-choice and his grandfather, Prescott Bush, was one of the early supporters of Planned Parenthood.

His mother should be ASHAMED of herself for being pro-choice since she lost a child at 3 years old!

Forty-two years ago, I miscarried with a baby when I was in my fifth month of pregnancy. It had a worse effect on me than I realized at the time, and now I regret not insisting on naming it and having a private sort of respectful burial of sorts instead of allowing the hospital to take care of it as a medical disposable. A lot of stuff we were led around by the nose about in those days; but I’ve never favored abortion. I later had a Downs baby with birth defects, but that did not cause me to ever support abortion. God is in control of life and death.

I put Bush in there with Reagan and Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

 
 
 
President Reagan presents Mother Teresa with the Medal of Freedom
 
Mother Teresa of Calcutta once said:
"It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish."
The greatest challenge facing the western world
is not violence from without,
but the tragic decision to take a life within.
