Well the Mormons dont. Just about every Mormon legislator has pulled their backing.
And will you Mormons tell me again that your love of money and power does not count?
Perhaps that is why the Clinton campaign and the Progressive ideology and movement which controls her agenda intentionally are trying to control the conversation surrounding her campaign to retain control.
A Proclamation
America was founded with a ringing affirmation of the transcendence of human rights.
Our Declaration of Independence proclaims that the rights to ``Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness'' are not a grant from the government, but a gift from the Creator; and we declared that the same Divine Providence in which the new Nation placed its ``firm reliance'' imposes on government a solemn duty to respect and secure these fundamental rights. Yet, on January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court of the United States struck down our laws protecting the lives of unborn children. At that time there were those who predicted confidently that in time Americans would come to accept the Court's decision and the ``new ethic'' that it reflects. History has proved them wrong. Each year the terrible toll of more than a million innocent human lives has weighed more heavily on the conscience of America.
Each year remarkable advances in prenatal medicine bring ever more dramatic confirmation of what common sense told us all along -- that the child in the womb is simply what each of us once was: a very young, very small, dependent, vulnerable member of the human family. When Americans demand legal protection for human life, we are simply being true to our most basic principles and convictions. We are reaffirming the self-evident truths set forth in our Declaration of Independence. Indeed, we are reaffirming the consensus of civilized humanity by recognizing that children need special safeguards and care, including appropriate legal protection, before as well as after birth.
Those who champion the right to life know the harsh pressures and the profound anguish that drive some women to consider abortion. The most moving testimony to our reverence for human life has been the generous, even heroic efforts made by so many religious and charitable organizations to help women with problem pregnancies and to facilitate the adoption of infants into families eager to give them love and care.
Those who work to restore legal protection to the unborn do so with the knowledge that they have gone to the defense of the weak, the silent, the endangered. But that is not something new. Whenever disasters have endangered human life, we Americans have always responded swiftly and selflessly.
Respect for the sanctity of human life has not died in America. Far from it. With every passing year it shines ever more brightly in the hearts of more and more of our citizens as they come to see the issue with greater clarity in all of its dimensions. As we carry this message to our courts, our legislatures, and our fellow citizens, let us never be discouraged. Let us put our trust in God, the Lord and Giver of Life, the Creator Who endowed us with our inalienable rights. May we soon rejoice in the day when reverence for human life is enshrined as surely in our laws as in our hearts.
Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Sunday, January 19, 1986, as National Sanctity of Human Life Day. I call upon the citizens of this blessed land to gather on that day in homes and places of worship to give thanks for the gift of life and to reaffirm our commitment to the dignity of every human being and the sanctity of each human life.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 15th day of January, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and tenth.
Ronald Reagan [Filed with the Office of the Federal Register, 10:58 a.m., January 16, 1986]
Excellent! These men are needed to speak to the tantrum players in the GOPe; admonishing them with the truth of Bible teachings. Those persons in DC are in need of some important lessons.
Plus everyone is a sinner and has a chance to do better.
