It has absolutely NOTHING to do with feeling good. It makes me feel terrible. But I could no more vote for Kirk than I could intestinally kill a child. Can’t do it. Conservatism USED to be about doing what’s right, even when you get unpleasant consequences. Why? Because some values transcend earthy political fights. If we hold life to be an inalienable right, but we empower people like Kirk to destroy life, God Himself will be adverse to our purpose, and will NOT as Beck says, be able to rely on Divine Providence to come swiftly to our aid. If we sell our souls to gain our freedom, what then is really gained?

So how does keeping a pro-abortion Democrat Congress promote pro-life?

You have to consider the CONSEQUENCES of your vote, which IS the Dems keeping power.

Oh come on. He’s running for Senator, not Supreme Court Justice. He’ll have next to nothing to do with the issue of abortion. Why cut off your nose to spite your face? Kirk is far from my ideal candidate, but he does have a 57% lifetime voting record on conservative issues from the American Conservative Union which means we’ll be able to count on him more than half the time. How often will be we able to count on Giannoulias, the Democrat, in the Senate? What is his pro-life record? Check the Libertarian’s record on issues of life—many of them are pro-choice.
