I am convinced that all 2-year-olds are pro-life. I formed that conclusion working a pro-life booth at a local county fair.
As soon as a 2-year-old's eyes spotted one of the fetal models on the table, he or she would reach out with both arms with an impassioned plea to touch "the babies." One little girl giggled when a model of a 30-week-old unborn baby was placed in her hands.....

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- One of the leading pro-abortion groups in the nation has a new web site ad it is running on news web sites in battleground states. However, the NARAL commercial may backfire and energize pro-life voters behind John McCain and Sarah Palin because it highlights their pro-life views.
The ad isn't what political observers might expect from NARAL -- with something akin to the ads the Obama campaign aired saying McCain is too extreme and featuring little in the way of the candidates' own words.......

TORONTO, October 2, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Prime Minister Stephen Harper's disturbing statements to the media that he will undemocratically not permit anyone to reopen the debate on abortion are a stark betrayal of conservative principles and should prompt his electoral defeat in Calgary Southwest in the coming federal election, says the editor of Canada's national Catholic magazine of news, analysis and opinion. In addition, Father Alphonse de Valk, editor of Catholic Insight magazine, is calling for the removal of Harper as Conservative party leader.......

Do you think Arnold Schwarzenegger wants to euthanize people NOW because he has a huge budget shortfall that includes NURSES? If there are less patients, Ca will need less nurses. (no killing of old film stars though).
Arnold needs to lose useless eaters? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27006906/
Alternatively, he may be concerned that the exodus from California may expand as more deathbots head to Oregon and Washington where death is openly embraced (or it will be in Washington after election day).

Just when this presidential election could not get any stranger, David Brody reports the launching of a "Pro-Life Pro-Obama" Web site. When is the "John McCain, Pacifist" Web site going to show up?
The effort to sell Obama as a pro-life candidate is being spearheaded by a group called the Matthew 25 Network, a PAC created by former Democratic political operative Mara Vanderslice. Vanderslice was director of religious outreach for the Kerry campaign in 2004 but was "silenced" when Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League, publicized her connection with various far-left political groups......

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- The American Nurses Association is coming under fire form a leading pro-life nurse for creating a web site supporting Barack Obama. The national nursing group is accused of selling out the interests of women and unborn children by supporting a thoroughly pro-abortion candidate.
In an email to its membership yesterday, the group said it is "excited to announce the launch of our web site 'Nurses for Obama.'"......

Christine O'Donnell is running for election against Sen. Joseph Biden.
In his debate with Gov. Sarah Palin on Thursday, Joe Biden told the American public that “all you have to do is go down Union Street with me in Wilmington, or go to Katie’s Restaurant” to get a sense of how people feel about the economy.
But Christine O’Donnell has some news she’d like to tell Biden: Katie’s Restaurant has been closed for a while.
It’s unlikely, however, that O’Donnell will get the opportunity to inform him. As the woman running against Biden, the one competing against him in his largely overlooked Senate reelection bid in Delaware, she’s still waiting for her chance to stand on stage with him.
~Snip~
O’Donnell has, however, made enough noise to gain notice from Haley Barbour, the governor of Mississippi and former chairman of the Republican National Committee, who has endorsed her, along with astronaut Buzz Aldrin and David Horowitz, the 1960s radical turned conservative activist. Preceding O'Donnell's career in elected politics was a career in conservative-issue advocacy and a stint at the RNC.
Before this election got under way, O’Donnell was doing advocacy work on a Terri Schiavo-like right-to-life case in Delaware, involving a 23-year-old woman named Lauren Richardson....................

This person with whom I would not shake hands has graced the ears of those who don't have them with a new noise. But I wish Lance well. I am not really sure what "Life Partner" is but somebody could clue her in on a term she has not yet understood, "marriage". She could even Google it.

As Lance Armstrong pedaled to another Tour de France victory, Sheryl Crow found herself in an unfamiliar position: on the sidelines.
~Snip~
"Just spending our days together was one of the things that have been really missing from my life, the experience of serving somebody else and having them serve you. I found I enjoy being in a partnership, part of a team, as a unit," she says.
While she calls Armstrong the inspiration of "Wildflower,"the disc is not the sunny, dreamy album one might expect from someone reveling in a new love.
"Even though the record feels like a bunch of love songs, most of those records are based on the conversations that Lance and I would have about religion, and Terri Schiavo and about our government. They're based on how we felt about what kind of world we felt we were leaving his children," she says of the divorced father of three.
Few of the songs on the album are radio friendly, and Crow is unsure if "Wildflower" will meet the success of her previous discs.........

Sarah Palin gets it. That's why she and husband Todd chose not to abort baby Trig in spite of his alleged imperfections. To some, he is a "useless eater." He will never win the snow machine race his father is famous for or be mayor or governor of anything, but Sarah and Todd know the value of his life in ways that can never be explained to a man like Barack Obama. A baby like Trig is a precious life. And the baby carried by his sister is not punishment....

The very personal and often uncharitable criticism of Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin and her family evident in recent media coverage, and the lack of support from many feminist and child advocacy groups, may have a relationship to the collective grief, pain and guilt from personal involvement in the abortion of an unborn child.
When an issue strikes at a deeply repressed sensitive wound in a person, often the initial reaction is anger...

In an article published last year on CBC News, Mallick railed against the Vatican's refusal to support abortion for African women, saying the Church has "no pity" for African women whom the Church thinks "don't matter as much as a clump of cells." Therefore, Mallick says, Catholics choosing to disobey the Church are "inevitable" and more rational than Church officials, whom she called "folks who don't get out much."............

The prelate clarifies: "This reasoning is sound only if other issues carry the same moral weight as abortion does, such as in the case of euthanasia and destruction of embryos for research purposes. Health care, education, economic security, immigration and taxes are very important concerns. [ ] However, the solutions to problems in these areas do not usually involve a rejection of the sanctity of human life in the way that abortion does."
As proof of the point, Bishop Martino said, "Consider this: The finest health and education systems, the fairest immigration laws and the soundest economy do nothing for the child who never sees the light of day. It is a tragic irony that 'pro-choice' candidates have come to support homicide -- the gravest injustice a society can tolerate -- in the name of 'social justice.'"..........

I’ve met Miss O’Donnell before through a friend in the pro-life movement. She’s a honorable and nice young woman. Godspeed to her.
Re: Post #30
“But Christine ODonnell has some news shed like to tell Biden: Katies Restaurant has been closed for a while.”
That is absolutely PRICELESS, and the fact that O’Donnell was working on helping Lauren Richardson makes it truly beautiful.
