They probably won’t read it. My Dad is a practicing Catholic who is very anti-abortion, but somehow he found a way to rationalize a vote for Obama in 08. He said with Roe v. Wade in place Obama and McCain were functionally equivalent. Now he knows better. He likes to tell me he is not a one issue voter, to which I respond “If that one issue is killing innocent babies then you should be a one issue voter. Would you vote for someone who had been convicted of killing an adult by shooting them in the head at point blank range? If you wouldn’t, then you can’t vote for Obama”.

Romney has a crummy record on abortion, but Obama’s record on Infant Born Alive legislation for me makes him a truly evil human being. Think about it - a baby is born alive, struggling to survive, and is just left in a disposal room to die. Obama supported that. There was a story in 08 where a nurse in Illinois recalled a story where an aborted baby was born alive, was left to die, she held the baby in an attempt to comfort the baby as it struggled for its life, eventually dying. Obama opposed the legislation that would prevent this from happening. Then he lied about it, as outlined in the article above. Words fail.

your dad sounds very much like my MIL from up north in MA.

Every issue she agrees with my wife, her daughter and I but she always sees to find some excuse to vote Dem, however she has said she will not vote this time for obama.

I've just been speaking to my oldest 14 and my wife about this and explained what he did not vote for and what he wanted.

It truly is sick, could there not be a group which would put an AD up telling the public how abortions are done and what obama would do if that child survived the abortion.?

My oldest is with the sheriff explorers and so learns many aspects of the law.
He asked me why is it that if a pregnant woman is killed then the murderer is done for two murders, the baby and the mother but if a mother kills her child then some seem fit to say that is alright.

He has a great point but shame that some adults cannot see this.

I'll be honest I;m middle aged and never cared less about abortion or even the homo's but as I had children and especially as I raised my boys to be future men and fathers then I looked as life differently.
