Abortion in our Time

I was going to comment on Judge Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court, but will only say I think it's obvious she is for a racial preference system, but she is an unknown as far as abortion – though I find it difficult to believe President Obama would nominate anyone who was not in full support of abortion.

What is now the most troublesome news is that the Nation's worst late-term abortionist, Dr. George Tiller, has been assassinated. I completely condemn this violence, but greatly fear that the abortion industry will use this tragic death for political gain, broadly painting all Pro-Life advocates as violent sociopaths. The abortion industry will do this to silence all criticism of abortion on demand, and use it as cover to make all abortions a right, one paid for with tax money in a National Health plan, and that conscientious objectors will be forced to engage is what they know is morally evil, or be fired.

In other words, I do not believe the words in Obama's Notre Dame Speech, I believe his actions of reversing the Mexico City Policy as well as his reversal of the Conscience clause instituted by the Bush Administration before the transition to the Obama administration.

Mt 10:22 comes to mind: "And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved." In other words Adversity will come but Hope will spring in the midst of this Adversity.

Pelosi for Waterboarding before she was against it

In another yawn-inspiring reaction from the Main Steam Media to blatant Democratic Hypocrisy, Nancy Pelosi's knowledge of, and tacit support of waterboarding is slowly coming to light.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi...insisted she was not told that waterboarding was used on al-Qaeda suspect Abu Zubaydah despite a newly released CIA report that says she was. - Boston Herald

...Among the techniques described, said two officials present, was waterboarding, a practice that years later would be condemned as torture by Democrats and some Republicans on Capitol Hill. But on that day, no objections were raised. Instead, at least two lawmakers in the room asked the CIA to push harder, two U.S. officials said.
"The briefer was specifically asked if the methods were tough enough," said a U.S. official who witnessed the exchange. - Washington Post

Pelosi's nemesis Rep. Jane Harman (D-CA) was the only member of Congress to utter any questions about the practice, as documented in a recently declassified CIA letter Harman wrote in Feb. 10, 2003 - Washington Times

God Help Us.
