The Battle for Life in ‘Health Care Reform’: Catholics United vs. Family Research Council

Someone is right and someone is wrong. There is no middle ground on this one. The truth must be revealed and shouted from the Housetops. In fact, it really is a matter of life and death. It will frame our action and response as Pro-Life people. It must be the determining factor as to whether faithful Catholics, other faithful Christians, Pro-Life people of faith and people of good will who recognize the truth concerning the personhood of our first neighbors in the womb can participate in any Health care Plan which funds the taking of innocent human life in the womb with tax payer dollars. If this Plan does indeed mandate such blood money, we have to prepare for massive resistance because we cannot participate. Abortion is not health care. Period.

An “internecine” battle broke out in a very public way as the last week of July came to an end in Washington, D.C. It pitted "catholics United" and "Family Research Council" against each other. If eager public officials, preparing to leave town during the Congressional recess, thought this Health Care struggle was over, they were absolutely wrong. They are headed into some very hot August nights as their Pro-Life constituents INSIST upon the answer to who is telling the truth.
