Hillary must have loved Margaret Sanger. Margaret Sanger loved KKK and wanted to exterminate blacks. Why do blacks still like Hillary?

MEDIA ADVISORY, Jan. 23 /Christian Newswire/ -- Today, a full transcript was made available of Hillary Clinton's July 17, 2007 speech before the Planned Parenthood Action Fund (PPAF).

"Hillary Clinton's speech before the Planned Parenthood Action Fund revealed just how closely she walks with Planned Parenthood, NARAL, NOW and all other groups seeking continuing and unlimited access to abortion on demand," stated Laura Echevarria, who transcribed the speech...........

An exercise in the grotesque is softened by words from the left labeling this minion of the dark side "controversial." So much wrong in so many ways...

..................................

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Jan. 24 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Barbaro, the euthanized champion racehorse, is an emblem for the Right To Die and Death With Dignity movements in a monument to be unveiled in Central Park this April, before the 134th Kentucky Derby. "The Barbaro Memorial for the Right to Die" by controversial sculptor Daniel Edwards is a tribute to the late Triple Crown contender and is dedicated to the institution of euthanasia, announced Manhattan's Leo Kesting Gallery.

Caption: Barbaro in progress by Daniel Edwards"The Barbaro Memorial" will depict the thoroughbred champion in the winner's circle on his back with his number 8 saddle cloth draping his belly and hooves in the air, representing his inability to stand on his feet due to the debilitating laminitis which followed the shattered ankle he suffered in the 2006 Preakness Stakes.

Barbaro was put down for his injuries January 29th of 2007.

Barbaro was euthanized after every option for saving him was explored, well into a painful existence. "A suffering horse cannot call Dr. Kevorkian for an assisted suicide because, like Terry Schiavo, the ailing horse cannot speak for itself," said gallery co-director, David Kesting. It was reported that in the end, Barbaro was biting at people before he was finally allowed to die with dignity......................

A Pell Grant I can agree with, a whole lot...

Thread by wagglebee.

....................................

In his address at the award ceremony January 17, the Cardinal gave a comprehensive examination of the issues surrounding abortion, euthanasia, artificial procreation and the destruction of the traditional family. Cardinal Pell urged the pro-life movement "to draw society into deeper reflection about the mystery, wonder and value of human life," and reject the new utilitarian morality.

The award included a prize of more than $104,000, which Cardinal Pell said will go to fund pro-life initiatives.

In his address, He warned against the growth of the materialistic "post-modern" and environmentalist ethic which he called "a minority neo-pagan, anti-human mentality," that reduces human value to issues of "efficiency, functionality and usefulness."

The cardinal rejected the materialist philosophy that supports the anti-human environmental movement, saying that such "extreme" proposals as taxing new parents to compensate for the "carbon footprint" of their offspring "are often expressions of modern society's deep confusion about the place and value of the human person in the world."

"They should set off warning bells for us. If we have learnt anything from the atrocities of the last century, it is that wide scale attacks upon human life and dignity both stem from and sustain reductive understandings of the human person."..................

B.O. Plenty...

The Obama Nation shows a deep flaw, not very cute.

I perceive this leftist as more and more sinister as time passes.

..........................

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama gave a recent interview to Christianity Today magazine and said he wants to do more than previous Democratic candidates in pursuing evangelical voters. But when told his pro-abortion views are a turnoff to pro-life advocates, Obama was unapologetic in his defense of unlimited abortion.

He said part of his job as a presidential candidate is to "reach out" to evangelical voters.

"Evangelicals have come to believe often times that Democrats are anti-faith," Obama said in the interview. "Hopefully we can build some bridges that can allow us to move the country forward."

Apparently, not when it comes to abortion................

How sad. I didn’t know Barbaro had been put down last year.

War is peace, evil is good, white is black. Killing fields are sacred. This devil wears the cloth. This church is the United Church of Christ.

Thread by SErtelt. Thanks, wagglebee, for the ping.

.....................................

Albany, NY (LifeNews.com) -- In an act that is sure to generate guffaws from the pro-life community, a group of pro-abortion clergy in Schenectady held a ceremony at a local abortion business to bless it and call it "sacred ground." Religious officials who are pro-life call the ceremony sacrilegious by blessing a place that kills the life God creates.

Rev. Larry Phillips of Schenectady's Emmanuel-Friedens Church dedicated the ground, according to a report in the Albany Times Union.

He called the abortion facility "sacred and holy ... where women's voices and stories are welcomed, valued and affirmed."................

Barbaro was a magnificent racehorse and what happened at the Preakness was one of horse racing’s greatest tragedies. However, the fact remains that a horse, no matter how majestic, IS NOT created in God’s Image and DOES NOT have a soul. Unfortunately, I have had to have a number of my wonderful Golden Retrievers put to sleep over the years and it is never an easy decision, but it is always the right decision. But people are different, we DO NOT have the right to decide who lives and who dies, this decision is left to our Creator.

And for the record, Terri DID communicate her horror and disagreement when the feeding tube was removed.

It’s all part of the lie. They equate humans and animals, by implying “We are all animals anyway...” That way if it is ok to euthanize animals, surely it is just as ok to snuff people to “end their suffering.”

We have had to do the same as you had. When I was sixteen, my Golden Retriever was hit by a passing car and suffering terribly. Yes, I shot him, myself. I remember that dark moment to this day, but I did it. We also put down other pets including our two seventeen year old Newfie-Chesapeakes. It hurts, but they are not humans.

Another HUGE difference between most animals that are put down and Terri is that the animals clearly are dying, Terri WAS NOT. Barbaro lived for nine months after the Preakness because his owners had unlimited financial resources and had access to the most advanced veterinary specialists in the world. Had he had this same initial injury a decade or two ago, he would have been put down on the track.

I’ve owned and raced TB’s all my life. I know both the Jacksons who owned Barbaro and the veterinarian, Dean Richardson, who treated him at New Bolton. They have NOTHING to do with this statue of Barbaro. I am truly outraged at the exploitation of Barbaro and their attempting to connect his death to the euthanasia/death cult movement. The people behind this should be truly ashamed for disgracing the horse and those who loved and cared for him.

That is heresy to equate animals with human beings. We already knew they were dark but beating a dead racehorse is unbelievable. And they cow kicked Terri while they were at it.

Only really dark, perverse people would compare animals to human beings.

Here we go again. THE PRESIDENT DID NOT INTERVENE TO SAVE TERRI SCHIAVO. IF he or baby bro had, Terri would still be alive. The premise of the question is based upon media propaganda.

The GOP was killing Terri too.

Exhibit a: www.judgegeorgegreer.com

Thanks to Mitt Romney for meeting with Terri's brother Bobby. I am repeating this info since Mitt was the only candidate to do so and people are appreciative to have this info.

Barbaro seemed to heal but I believe he got an infection and he just couldn’t get over it.

This is exactly the point - Terri was not dying.

That is rather remarkable in its audacity. I just don't know if they think of that stuff for themselves, or if they are in tune with a lower being. Bless you Terri Schiavo, the courts have never starved or dehydrated a horse yet.
