>> I am relentless. Always have been. Always will be.

And my remark about it was a compliment.

I’m not one to shy away from the fact that Romney has betrayed Life.

Sadly the holocaust of the babies is not being fought like a real war, and it never has since the supreme decision that makes it legal to brutally kill nascent human life.

As a lawyer (now recovering), I represented 1100 pro-lifers who were arrested for various "crimes" when invading abortion mills, desterilizing their instruments, pouring raw eggs into the suction machines (requiring them to be rebuilt by engineers) and sometimes putting the mill out of business for weeks.

Many were brutalized by police for refusal to cooperate with their arrests. The overwhelming majority were arrested for: either felony burglary or misdemeanor criminal trespass, felony assaulting a police officer (trumped up baloney that never occurred even once) or misdemeanor interfering with police officers or misdemeanor resisting arrest, misdemeanor breach of the peace or misdemeanor disorderly conduct, and/or felony or misdemeanor criminal mischief (essentially destruction or desterilizing of property, i.e. the killing instruments.

No more than 30 were convicted of anything (because of their fortitude and resistance more than anything I did) mostly non-criminal infractions and never more than misdemeanors on which they refused to pay fines. A handful (fewer than 10) were incarcerated post trial having been convicted after a marathon trial and none did more than ten days post-trial.

One of my clients on several occasions was Fr. Norman Weslin who died of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's on May 16, 2012, and a man who would make Patton look like the most peaceful of the Little Sisters of the Poor. Google him. He was the priest arrested at Notre Dame for carrying a cross onto the campus to protest Obozo's presence at graduation. He flew in from Colorado to do it. He also had led a sit in at Nancy Pelosi's office during the pendency of the Obozocare bill.

My point is that SOME pro-lifers did, in fact, fight the holocaust as a war. Fr. Weslin had been a colonel in the US Army and was originally a Lutheran who married an Irish Catholic woman. He taught at the War College as I understand it and was charged with the nuclear defense of Chicago and New York. He always said that his military experience was small potatoes and that pro-life was the REAL war. He had converted to Catholicism by the time he retired from the military. He brought his wife to Chicago to visit her relatives. On an exit from an interstate, his car was stuck in traffic. He got out to check a noise under the car. A drunk driver rammed his car from behind and his wife was beheaded in his presence. He entered a seminary for late vocations and was ordained and spent the rest of his life either working for Mother Teresa in New York or later being a general in that pro-life war.

I was not complaining about your remark. I was just giving you my honest response.

Faced with this electoral tragedy offering us major party candidates like Mittler and Obozo, may Fr. Weslin besiege God with prayer for the Church, for the pro-life movement and for the nation that he loved and served.
