Obama will never have my support. I am not in his we because he is the most pro-death president we have ever had. Ugh. Such an awful place to be in this year. Mitt was not my choice, but if it will get Obama out of office, I will gladly vote for him.
I agree with the sentiment you're sharing here (about President Obama being uncomfortably pro-abortion), but have difficulty with the words you used to express it. In my opinion, "pro-life" applies to sooooo much more than just unborn children. It's a grievous mistake to value unborn humans over born humans ... and visa versa. Both are in God's image, and I think that fatalities from war (which a president does have a direct impact over) have to be included in the death count when giving someone a label as somber as "pro-death." And in that case, perhaps President Roosevelt during WWII might possibly be the most "pro-death" president? I dunno ... I've been looking for numbers and am not finding anything easily.
As a country, our numbers on abortion are staggering ... they take my breath away in that awful punch-in-the-stomach sort of way, really. :-(
I saw this phrase on Facebook the other day: "Picking a favorite presidential candidate this year is like picking a favorite STD."
Obama was silent on stopping infanticide in Illinois. He really needs to get us out of Afghanistan. Ugh, I could go on and on. I'm for life on all levels. I've always thought the term pro-choice was just a way of hiding what's really going on...since back in my democrat days. I've always thought that the term pro-choice was deceptive. I've watched abortion hurt so many and kill those (nieces & nephews) that I love, so I'm sorry if my wording seems offensive...but it is something very personal for me.
Anyway, I'm good! Are you all doing a gender reveal party or anything?
Yes, pro-choice is totally a deceptive term! One of the regular sites I read online is Slate.com (kinda to get the "other" side of things), and you wouldn't believe how angry and militant its so-called "pro-choice" readers/commenters get when someone decides to choose life for their kid... It's such a double standard. Ugh.
We have had more Americans die from abortion than from war, so I'm totally okay with judging a politician's sanctity of life stance based on abortion votes ... just didn't want to see war deaths completely excluded as a factor. :-)
Baby's gender stays a secret for the rest of the world until he or she is born! If it were just me, I wouldn't care if anyone knew or not, but Gerry has some strong feelings about this ... so a secret it stays. What about you?
