Burh in Hell Democrats!!!

Henry Hyde: (April 18, 1924 – November 29, 2007), an American politician, was a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from 1975 to 2007, representing the 6th District of Illinois

Hyde was one of the most vocal and persistent opponents of abortion law liberalization in American politics and was the sponsor of a 1979 amendment Labor/Health and Human Services Appropriations bill which prohibited use of federal funds to pay for abortions.

"When the time comes as it surely will, when we face that awesome moment, the final judgment, I've often thought, as Fulton Sheen wrote, that it is a terrible moment of loneliness. You have no advocates, you are there alone standing before God and a terror will rip through your soul like nothing you can imagine. But I really think that those in the pro-life movement will not be alone. I think there will be a chorus of voices that have never been heard in this world but are heard beautifully and clearly in the next world and they will plead for everyone who has been in this movement. They will say to God, "Spare him because he loved us," and God will look at you and say not, "Did you succeed?" but "Did you try?"'

- Henry Hyde

Although “unborn babies saving pro-life folks” is a nice thought, Henry Hyde is not theologically correct. Christian's have but one awesome, perfect and effective advocate at the final judgement-Jesus Christ. The babies may be routing for Him and us, but it is He alone that earns for us the not-guilty verdict. He has the power to earn that verdict even for pro-aborts who repent and look to him for forgiveness and eternal peace.
