Provenzo: Sarah Palin had a moral obligation to kill this baby!

[JPII Be Not Afraid]

There have been times when the tests were wrong. Some have chosen to have the baby, even after being told the baby would be handicapped, only to give birth to a very healthy child.

Makes you wonder how many of the so called 90-95% aborted babies, for this reason, are really just false positive tests.

[beachn4fun]

Ha! They can keep on writing this trash because it is only going to help the conservative side.

[Dark Wing]

This will not go over well with most Americans.

[arrogantsob]

No one is surprised by this if they have read Ayn Rand.

Given that Palin's decision is being celebrated in some quarters, it is crucial to reaffirm the morality of aborting a fetus diagnosed with Down syndrome (or by extension, any unborn fetus)—a freedom that anti-abortion advocates seek to deny.

Given this conclusion, what makes it any less moral to snuff out the baby after birth? Barry Obama did not want to end the practice of killing babies "born alive".

[Petronski]

The argument is straight from Nazi talking points.

[Oztrich Boy]

"This is exactly how Nazi Germany started"

[Dark Wing]

I don’t think this will play well with most Americans.

This is what you get when you uncouple capitalism from Judeo-Christian values. It’s every bit as scary as communism, fascism, or islamism.

[ApplegateRanch]

Were I not a Christian, but rather worshipped at the feet of these purveyors of death and depravity, I might try building an altar to Molech, to allow these “leaders” to emulated Ahaz, King of Judah.

2 Chron 28:2-3

2 For he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for Baalim.

3 Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his children in the fire, after the abominations of the heathen whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
KJV)

I'm sure they would pay for the privilege of using it.

Shucks, they might even incorporate it into their church's worship services, replacing the baptismal fonts with gas grills. It could even do double-duty on their special religious holidays, such as Super Bowl Sunday, Roe-v-Wade Memorial Day, Gay Pride Day, Cain's Birthday....

[ChurtleDawg]

I heard the same kind of stuff about Terri Schiavo from other “turbo-capitalists”,(read: economic but not social Republicans and right wing libertarians). It disgusted me then and disgusts me now.

They think that sick people who cannot pay their own way are a burden on society and should be left to the wolves

[UpInArms]

Did not the Nazis start with such thought processes to justify their monstrous acts?

Does anyone recall a “Law and Order” episode when a character was described as a “wrongful life” because she was born crippled and that the fictional mother who gave birth was considered a criminal as if she committed a wrongful death?

It seems some pro-abortionists consider Trig Palin a “wrongful life”.

[AuntB]

I decided to check, but often find this the case. Illogical writers like this one, so enamored with abortion because of the “financial burden’ excuse, are usually the biggest open border promoters out there. They don’t mind that we bear the burden of 20 million illegal aliens.

Senate blocks immigration reform

:: Posted by Nicholas Provenzo at 3:17 PM
“The defeat of this bill is a clear victory for xenophobia and protectionism. While the proposed legislation was far from perfect (I maintain that any immigration quota is a violation of the individual rights of existing citizens to do business with whom they choose) the bill was as least an attempt to recognize reality and acknowledge that as long as America is free and prosperous, there will be a powerful incentive for people to abandon their failed regimes in order to live here. Instead of welcoming such people and integrating their talents and wiliness to work into America, the xenophobes and protectionists have successfully kept them as a criminal underclass.”

[Cheesel]

So we should kill someone because they might be a burden on the state? How about Medicare recipients? SSI recipients? Foster kids? they are all ‘burdens’ on the state, too, even though it may not be their fault (certainly isn’t with foster kids).

I believe Christopher Joseph Burke made some money. From wiki "Many were surprised at how healthy and bright Burke was when he entered formal schooling."

Now those who are on welfare and able bodied? There are so many smug elitist who judge the disabled. Yet, these are many of the same people who are depressed and want to and do kill themselves not seeing God's plan in their life. And their life is the greatest gift of all.

Thanks for posting. Nicholas Provenzo? I’ve never heard of this lunatic.
