In April of this year, Sarah Palin give birth to her fifth child, Trig, who was born premature with Down Syndrome. Recent statistics show that in the U.S., approximately 90% of Down Syndrome diagnoses end with the mother choosing abortion. Palin on her family’s reaction to the diagnosis, in her own words:

“We knew through early testing he would face special challenges, and we feel privileged that God would entrust us with this gift and allow us unspeakable joy as he entered our lives. We have faith that every baby is created for good purpose and has potential to make this world a better place. We are truly blessed.” (April 18, 2008, Anchorage Daily News)

Sorry, I know I've been posting this on multiple threads, but this is the only chance. Strike while the iron is hot!)

My wife and I were given the same news back in 1990. The doctors told us we should abort the baby. We refused. Lucky for us, our little girl was born without Downs. She is now a senoir in high school with a 4.3 grade average.

It’s strange that the liberal feminists are convinced a woman can handle the challenges of the Presidency, but can’t be expected to handle a challenging pregnancy.

Sarah Palin has shown she can handle it ALL— with the irreplaceable help of a good husband, a loving family, a constituency of concerned citizens, and the grace of God.

Go, Go, Go, Palin! Victory!

What an awesome family - Trig is a lucky boy to have so many sibs watching over him.
