I have no argument with parents who are genetically tested and decide not to take the risk of reproducing children who might have some form of genetic disability.

The author himself might not have an argument, but many liberals did have an argument with Sarah Palin because she chose to reproduce a child certain that it had a form of genetic disability. That tells us virtually all we need to know about modern progressives whom we used to call liberals. It tells me all I need to know about the visceral hatred Sarah Palin aroused in a class we now once again in our history call "progressives" merely by her decision to carry a baby to term knowing that it had down syndrome.

Of course liberals-I mean progressives, don't admit to this, rather they shriek in indignation when they are accused of it but there can be no other explanation for their mindless loathing of Sarah Palin, a loathing which surpasses mere political difference of opinion.

Why is this so, why do the liberals hate her so just because she declined to practice eugenics? Because her action was a reproach to them and threatened what they cherish most: the unquestioned, unfettered prerogative to play God. There is no single thing man (or in this case, woman) can do which more arrogates the power of God then the power to grant or withhold life. Hence there shrieking adherence to abortion.

"Eugenicist is just another name for "God player."

My concern regarding genetic tests done during gestation on amniotic fluid are that there seem to many cases where they are not accurate...the child is born full term without any problems whatsoever. Adults who are tested on the other hand, can take steps if they so choose not to reproduce.

Liberals/Progressives want state mandated standards of perfection. They want full control of everything and everyone. It is always the desire of tyrants to impose their vision/will upon world.

Exactly.

Great post, as always.
