A full-grown person is a “person,” and yet it’s still legal to kill that person under certain circumstances, such as self-defense.

“This doesn’t even take into account the huge amount of money that RLM, through its political arms, spent trying to elect a man who ran ads in the recent election promising to spend millions more of the taxpayers’ dollars on life-destroying embryonic stem cell research: Senator John McCain.”

true?

I received a postcard touting both McCain’s and Palin’s support of stem cell research. Was this aborted embryonic?

I was taken aback by it.

It is clear that some in the Right to Life movement are in fact working against it.

That includes those who keep saying to wait, to only go for pesos instead of for full dollars.

George W. Bush channeled 2.2 billion dollars to Planned Parenthood during his eight years as president.

The Republicans pretend to be pro-life then when we vote for them they snicker at us and call us “suckers” then they do whatever serves their purpose.

Let’s face it, we pro-lifers don’t have a friend in politics.

So, seccession is the answer. South Caroline could seceed from the Union in 2020 and abolish abortion.

Just as the USSC recognized 10th A. protected state rights in the Terri Schiavo case, the corrupt USSC should have recognized 10th A. protected state rights when it decided Roe v. Wade. But the Roe v. Wade opinion doesn’t even mention 10th A. protected state rights.

The problem is that constitutionally clueless FDR got the USSC to politically repeal 10th A. protected state powers when he established his constitutionally unauthorized New Deal federal spending programs. And special-interest liberal justices have evidently been practicing a double-standard since that time when it comes to respecting 10th A. protected state powers.

Abortion opponents lost their way when they started to rely on political solutions rather than pulpit solutions. Seeking laws to reduce abortions should be replaced by messages from religious leaders to mothers-to-be and the medical community. If these can’t be convinced neither will politicians. It still ends up with hearts and minds.

Pro-life ping!

Dear God,

Take away all sense of hopelessness wrought by the election results, for we know that there is always a way and always a reason for hope in You. Redirect us to the course You want us to follow, that we as a nation may come together to defend Your most innocent; to acknowledge You as our Creator; and above all, to honor You. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

WARNING: POSSIBLY DISTURBING IMAGE (FOR PRO-LIFERS).

YOU PRO-ABORTS WILL FIND IT GRATIFYING.

Time to stop sugar-coating this subject. This shot was taken by a pro-life activist behind an abortuary. But those aren’t human babies. The One has told us so.

ALL HAIL “THE ONE!”

Until Pro-Lifers figure out they can’t protect the unborn and pregnant women simultaneously, nothing is going to change except the faces.

We have been inspired this year by the courageous efforts of those in Colorado who worked tirelessly to put their Personhood Amendment, which recognizes the unalienable right to life of all from the moment of fertilization, on the ballot.

And yet the people of Colorado voted down this amendment by embarrassingly large margins. Even El Paso county, one of the most conservative counties in the country, voted it down by large margins.

So how is this evidence of success? If this idea could barely get 25% of the vote in Colorado, how is it a winning idea?

The extent to which Right to Life of Michigan is willing to play all political sides

Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation also had some confused priorities.

John Murtha's Republican challenger, William Russell, was pro-life.

Yet PPLF shockingly seemed to endorse Murtha. (Their flyer listed MURTHA's name in all caps and bold type, which for all intents and purposes conveyed their endorsement against Russell, whose name was in small type.)

While it's true Murtha has a pro-life record --with the exception of supporting taxpayer funding of embryonic stem cell research-- any pro-life org worth of the name should recognize that given a choice between two pro-life candidates, they should endorse the Republican.

The reason should be obvious: NO pro-life legislation, and NO pro-life judicial nominations, will be permitted to be brought to a vote, until Democrats cease to have a majority in Congress.

"Those of us who believe that the right to life is unalienable shall continue to pursue the protection of unborn children through the ratification of Personhood Amendments, state by state. "

Excellent!

The belief that the 14th Amendment protects the yet-to-be-born is historically unfounded, Constitutionally illogical, and unconservative.

Sure, such opinions - like Roe v Wade- are rendered by the courts. But they're wrong.

I am still trying to understand how the Pro-Life Movement wants to enforce the Pro-Life Agenda.

I mean persuasion is one thing, something I strongly support.

But if an adult woman, after all is said and done, wants to terminate her unborn baby, what exactly are you going to do about it?

Arrest her and put her in a detention camp until she gives birth?

Seal off the borders and not let pregnant leave the state or attempt to enter a Blue State where abortion is legal?

I don’t get it, and no one has been able to answer that.

Unless of course the Pro-Life Amendment is passed, which has about a one out of a 100,000 chance of happening. Is this all just political posturing?
