One of our forum posters pegged the abortions since Roe vs Wade at 54 million. I found a 2007 resource that pegged it at 50 million then, so we’re not far off with a figure of 54 million.

At any rate, there are 21 states west of the Mississippi river in the lower 48 states. If the population of 17 of states were to suddenly drop dead, it would equal 54.2 million.

That would leave California, Texas, Washington, and Idaho as the only states with citizens left west of the Mississippi.

Think about those 17 empty states. That’s a massive area with no human life.

That’s the story of abortion. 54 million little beings have been snuffed out. 54 million wrong choices...

Newt DOES NOT believe life begins at conception!!!!

GINGRICH: Well, I think the question of being implanted is a very big question. My friends who have ideological positions that sound good don’t then follow through the logic of: ‘So how many additional potential lives are they talking about? What are they going to do as a practical matter to make this real?’

I think that if you take a position when a woman has fertilized egg and that’s been successfully implanted that now you’re dealing with life. because otherwise you’re going to open up an extraordinary range of very difficult questions

TAPPER: So implantation is the moment for you.

GINGRICH: Implantation and successful implantation. In addition I would say that I’ve never been for embryonic stem cell research per se. I have been for, there are a lot of different ways to get embryonic stem cells. I think if you can get embryonic stem cells for example from placental blood if you can get it in ways that do not involve the loss of a life that’s a perfectly legitimate avenue of approach.

What I reject is the idea that we’re going to take one life for the purpose of doing research for other purposes and I think that crosses a threshold of de-humanizing us that’s very very dangerous.

Our nation filled the aborted void with illegal immigrants. The black race suffers from their self destructive ethnic cleansing. Caucasions don’t breed.

For any who have done genealogical research, just think about what you may find.

You might find a young teenage girl in your family tree who, in the 1860's gave birth to a boy child out of wedlock, and then, you might find that the man who grew from that child became a highly regarded artist or business man and community leader, who married and fathered 10 children.

Follow those 10 children, their marriages, their children, and their children's children, etc., etc., and by the Year 2012, that one little baby born in the 1860's became the ancestor of hundreds of successful citizens of America who contributed to the life of its churches, schools, its legal system, its manufacturing base, its military successes, and the freedoms all of us have enjoyed.

Now, suppose that young girl's family, in the 1860's, believed, as this President and his Party do, that she could not "fulfill her dreams" unless she could rid herself of the separate life beginning within her.

That family's shortsightedness on behalf of the "dreams" of their daughter would deprive the world of a man of faith who made an impact on the lives of many, whose children, and the generations following them continue to be productive citizens of their communities, their states, and the nation.

One may conclude that a leader of America who is so shortsighted that he could take the position this President has taken on such an important question does not understand the very foundations laid by our Declaration of Independence.

So by killing babies it fulfills our daughter's dreams? He also said it reflects the broader principles of America. As a state lawmaker in Illinois, he voted four times against legislation to protect the life of a baby that survived a botched abortion. Obama can only be described as ''pure evil.''

The MSM is complicit in this evil, because they cover up the Truth and promote propaganda. If the collective MSM chose to expose Obama (in countless ways) tomorrow, I am convinced he would be forced to resign within 2 weeks.

God alone is sovereign, and I will let Him deal with Obama, who will have a lot to answer for before the throne.

You points are accurate IMO. I don’t take pleasure in it, but you’re right. If whites had done to blacks what blacks have done to themselves, it would be called genocide.

The white race is essentially withdrawing from civilization.

Nice post. I agree with your comments.

The ripple effect from abortion is massive.

Horrible. This president is the most destructive of liberty we have ever had. Evil just consumes him. I’ll pray you don’t have to give up your job but you have to follow your principles. Good luck to you!!
