It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible.

"NARAL’s Nancy Keenan likes to say that abortion’s biggest defenders right now are a “menopausal militia”—a rueful, inspired little joke. These baby-boomers, whose young adulthoods were defined by the fight over the right to choose, will soon be numerically overtaken by a generation of twentysomethings who is more pro-life than any but our senior citizens. As GOP strategists Christopher Blunt and Fred Steeper have pointed out, this group came of age during the partial-birth debate and was the first to grow up with pictures of sonograms on their refrigerators. . . ."
"Given this demographic shift, plus the Stupak Amendment, plus the unavoidable fact that abortion’s essential nature is unchanging -- it will always involve some brutal nexus of the heart and the mind [euphemistic abortionspeak for "To anyone with a conscience, a baby's extermination by abortion is gut-wrenching"] --it’s hard for a pro-choice person like myself to see how the ball rolls forward."
I like Keenan's candid appellation for her dwindling group of zealots; henceforth, let's all use her apt coinage to describe them.
The pro-abort Menopausal Militia: soon to be disappearing from a neighborhood near you.
