Theres always room

for improvement in regards to how we, as fellow humans, offer help and assistance to pregnent women. Physical, financial and emotional support should be available for the asking.

You generalize the typical pro life supporter as not caring for the mother. The children whose life we are fighting for will grow up to be mothers, and fathers, and how futile would it be to not care for the fruition of our efforts? Do you think that we believe this way just to screw with peoples lives? You display a heavy dose of the same intolerence you accuse the other side of.

There will never be a day, while this world spins round, where there isn't someone speaking out against abortion. If all barriers were removed to abortion, the opposition would increase in proportion with the level of injustice for children we are witness too.

If you had no choice but to view an unborn fetus with the same preciousness and rights as a five year old, would you not have strong feelings also? If society one day, said it was ok to kill your kids younger than twelve because they hadn't reached adulthood and were thus not protected like an adult would be, would you not be properly horrified?

Are you only able to see the actions of those who oppose you, and then ascribe intent without foreknowledge, and refuse to consider their heart? What would that make you? The kind of person you accuse me of being.

Original article: The Obama effect

As if King Huessien

had any impact, whatsoever, on the agreement. He's been speaking of a 16 month timetable for years now and the US and Iraq reach an agreement and it's to his credit?

You are beyond willfully ignorant in your statement about our "militaristic stance toward Iran" also. Have you never listened to a word Achmedinejad has said? He's totally batshit nuts and you want King Huessein to sit and talk with him? Obama, if he chooses to do so, will be played like a puppet. You cannot believe anything he says. Buy into the bullshit and your forcing Isreal to attack Iran on it's own, and they will.

All your article has promoted is your belief in our new Presidents naievete. Your saying he is a danger to the free world. Thanks for your input, we all feel so good.

It is absolutely hilarious

to watch liberals walking the fine line. " Let's blame the CHURCH" because they're an easy target and you get points for protesting the CHURCH. It was the BLACK VOTE that passed prop 8 and it's not disputed. But, you can't protest the black churches, now can you? That would be RACIST and would require bravery.

America has that "freedom of religion" thing and they/we are allowed to believe what we will. Dont like it? Walk. They can advise their members of what the churches beliefs are, and the members are allowed to vote as they will. Look at the catholic vote for King Huessien™, even though he is one of the most prolific pro choice politicians EVAH!

Get some courage and stand up to the black church. 70+% in favor of prop 8. Wrong is wrong and if you want to be effective, go after the most egregious offenders first, otherwise, you appear cowerdly.

King Huessein

may go through the motions of looking into it, but he knows that he will have to make command decisions that will border on questionable legality. He also has to work with the minority.

He's a career politician and not suicidal, so there will be no fuss. He's going to need his replacement to return the favor, one day.

Oh, and FOCA is also suicidal, so watch it go away.
