Hillary Clinton and Planned Parenthood wanted to repeal the Hyde Amendment---the 1976 measure named after the late, pro-life Illinois Congressman, Henry Hyde---which denies federal funding for abortions. Some pro-lifers estimate that at least two million babies have been saved by that measure.

Less we forget ..

“Rights have to exist in practice — not just on paper,” Clinton argued. “Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will. And deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed.”

Regardless of the effect Clinton's oft-claimed "Methodist" background plays in her policy positions, one finds it hard to believe that her most-firmly-held ideological position is rooted in her "faith": that is, that government should, or is authorized to require its citizens to fund population control--even those citizens whose own religious consciences preclude any consideration of such "destroying" of human life.

To hold such a belief and to impose it on fellow citizens betrays the "Declarations" of the document of our liberties--The Declaration of Independence

Her strong assertions in the final debate on this subject was the final straw for many voters who agree with the Author of that Declaration, Thomas Jefferson, that, "The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God."

Now, if, as Mrs. Clinton sees it, this Constitutional limit does not conform to her view, then perhaps this election may have reinforced for her the reality that the Declaration and United States Constitution exist, as Lincoln (as quoted here) said in his letter to Pierce:

"All honor to Jefferson--to the man who, in the concrete pressure of a struggle for national independence by a single people, had the coolness, forecast, and capacity to introduce into a merely revolutionary document, an abstract truth, applicable to all men and all times, and so to embalm it there, that to-day, and in all coming days, it shall be a rebuke and a stumbling-block to the very harbingers of re-appearing tyranny and oppression." - Abraham Lincoln, Letter to Pierce

Those 2 million babies would be around 40 years old now-at least some of them.

How many voted for Hillary and didn’thave a clue?

Pretty much every election comes down to the turnout between The Christian Right and The anti-Christ Left.
