In a rebuke that smacks of selfishness at its worse, Provenzo says, "for many" potential parents of disabled babies, "that opportunity for challenge is little more than a lifetime of endless burden."

NO, most people do no view their children as "burdens."

What a sick dude.

What happens when we can test for virtually everything else possible in the womb?

The babies estimated IQ is too low and will be a “burden” so abort him or her...

The babies eyes aren’t blue... Abort it and try again...

Hmm, maybe Whittaker Chambers’ review of Atlas Shrugged was right after all. What an asshat this guy is.

Wait a minute, have I been bamboozled by the Libertarian party? I thought it was about personal choice.

And for the pro-choicers... I thought it was about PRIVACY and CHOICE. Now I find out it’s about killing what others see as not fit for living.

Sounds awful brownshirt to me.

>>>>>A writer for a libertarian group ...Nicholas Provenzo ... condemns Palin for the birth of her baby Trig, who has Down syndrome.
Provenzo ... writes ... she should have made the so-called morally justifiable decision to kill him in an abortion.

The culture of death marches forward ...

This is about the fastest way I have ever seen for the libertarian movement to lose the conservative vote.

Man is an idiot. I have found they tend to hang together.

what’s killing a kid got to do with libertarianism? more like communism.

actually, it’s the reverse: the kid’s an individual and has a right to live.

“A writer for a libertarian group has written perhaps the most scathing attack on pro-life vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin”

Should be, “most scathing self-condemnation for supporting infanticide”.

How this whack job’s comments will hurt Palin are beyond me.

Provenzo appears to be another maggot infected gay pushing for gay rights and now the killing of babies with Down’s syndrome.

Like many, I am troubled by the implications of Alaska governor and Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin's decision to knowingly give birth to a child disabled with Down syndrome," Provenzo writes.

My first thought is that Provenzo is mentally challenged, therefore a worthy candidate of self-abortion.

'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," the 44 year-old governor added.

I agree. Trig is going to change the world by defeating Obama.

"A parent has a moral obligation to provide for his or her children until these children are equipped to provide for themselves," he contends. "Because a person afflicted with Down syndrome is only capable of being marginally productive (if at all) and requires constant care and supervision, unless a parent enjoys the wealth to provide for the lifetime of assistance that their child will require, they are essentially stranding the cost of their child's life upon others"

OMG!

We need a 527 ad, or some thing on you tube...a group of people with Downs Syndrome telling all these elites what they think of their opinions.

"While as many as 80-90 percent of unborn children diagnosed with Down syndrome become victims of abortion, . . ."

What a sad commentary on society! The Culture of Death has forgotten that we are created in the image and likeness of God.
