Sarah Palin may share some of the qualities of a pit bull in courage and toughness but thats where comparisons end for her and pick up for Democrats that support abortion. A pit bull will kill and eat a pup that is not normal or unwanted.

My 3rd cousin Janet is also a Down’s Syndrome person. She’s the sweetest person you’d ever meet with such a great sense of humor.

The Rats are digging their own graves over this issue.

The eugenic abortion of Down’s Syndrome babies is another aspect of the way our modern society is flirting with a utilitarian evaluation of human life. Parents are urged to weigh the “value” of the life of the child against the costs of high levels of care and support that the child will require. The vast majority look at this calculation and come down on the side of death over life.

Similarly, in the debate over Embryonic Stem Cell Research, we are encouraged to consider the value of the supposed miracle cures that could be realized, and weigh that against the human life value of the embryos destroyed (if any). It seems that most voters are coming down on the side of death on this issue, as well.

And now, “medical ethicists” are discussing changing the criteria to determine when death has occured, with an eye to a more permissive standard in order to facilitate organ transplants. Again, people seem to be concluding that the value of the organs outweighs the value of the individual life involved.

We are heading down this road along multiple lanes. If government siezes control of medical care, we can count on them applying a utilitarian standard when it comes time to ration care. They will literally sieze the power of life and death, and the people will willingly give it up.

Against this tide stand Sarah, Todd and Trig Palin.

Growing up with a mentally handicapped sibling was very difficult in the 1960’s. I know from personal experience. The stares, the taunts. When I found out the revered Kennedy clan had one they kept hush about, it was even more difficult as I felt I should be ashamed too! I remember my sister asking me “are they going to cut out part of my brain too?” when we overheard adults talking about the Kennedy lobodomy (which we looked up in the dictionary).

Trig has done more for the pro-life movement than anything since it’s inception.

Show a picture of that precious little boy to the next lib you meet, and ask them if they could have aborted him? Make sure you stand back though. Exploding heads are so nasty.
