Oblivious

With everything else I have going on in my life I try to stay at least one day ahead with my writing.  Yesterday I had intended to write a piece about mothers since today is Mothers Day.  I awoke yesterday with the word oblivious stuck in my mind.  I don’t question these things any more, so I started typing, hoping that 500 or so words later I would have something that was at least marginally coherent, centered around the word oblivious.  I couldn’t publish this on Mothers Day without saying a few words about how truly special mothers are.  Mothers have been granted a universally unique privilege by our Creator.  While He is the one who creates life, mothers have been given the honor of nurturing His new lives and welcoming them into the world.  Once a mother becomes a mother, she’s a mother for life.  Far too many mothers decide that God made a mistake when He entrusted them with one of His priceless creations and choose to have it killed.  She doesn’t stop being a mother at that point, she just becomes the mother of a dead child.

In keeping with the word of the day, oblivious, I encourage all mothers and ‘mothers to be’ to not be oblivious to the ability to usher  a new life into the world that they have been given.  This ability is a sacred trust between a mother and God that is not meant to be broken.   Every mother that feels the loving embrace of her children today understands this sacred trust and the unbreakable bond it creates between a mother and her child.

 

 

Ob-liv-i-ous 1. forgetful; unmindful (with,of,or to). 2. causing forgetfulness. 3. not aware.

We all lead busy lives.  We tend to focus on the pressing issues at hand and fail to see the big picture.  If it doesn’t affect our lives it’s not important.  I’ve been there.  I know how you feel.  My personal awakening came suddenly last May after spending the weekend in the company of my then 2 year old grandson.  Just like that, my focus was no longer on me, but on what I could do to make the world a better place.

I know it sounds Pollyannish from an admittedly flawed person like me, but I could hear God calling me to save the children.  It was a moment of absolute clarity like I’ve never felt before, and I knew, without a doubt, that I was being called to fight for the lives of our unborn children. No instructions were given, no marching orders received; and none were needed.  I knew what I had to do.

Since that day I’ve come to realize that over the past several years all the books I’ve read, all the writing I’ve done, and random encounters and experiences that meant nothing to me at the time, were all leading me to where I am now. I was being prepared to answer the call that had not yet come.  Literally, every day when I’m writing, conversations from the past and events that I’d long forgotten suddenly make sense in the context of what I have dedicated my life to.  I can’t explain it and don’t feel compelled to do so.  I accept it for what it is and I’m no longer oblivious to what’s really important.  The folks at Planned Parenthood and the staff that opens the mail at the White House probably wish I were.

When you dedicate yourself to a cause that you want nothing from, except results, you’re on the right track.  If your only motivation is fame and fortune, keep looking; you’ll find your calling.  If you have to constantly ask yourself if what you are doing is for the good of others, look for something else.  If you’ve become a couch potato, stuffing your pie-hole with Doritos and Twinkies as you watch mind-numbing reality TV, grab your dictionary and look up the word oblivious; then look in the mirror.  Then, get off the couch and start making a difference.

Just because many of us are oblivious to the slaughter that occurs daily in America’s abortion mills doesn’t mean it’s not happening.  I believe that none of us makes a conscious choice to be oblivious or unaware of events and the actions of others that negatively affect the human condition.  We can, however, make a conscious choice to become aware of human tragedies and dedicate ourselves to countering evil with good works.  It’s up to each of us to look inside and see why we are here at this time at this place, and what our role is toward making a better world.  The answer lies within each of us.  All we have to do is look.

To Whom it May Concern:

I have to give credit where credit is due.  I’ve written countless letters to Planned Parenthood’s Cecile Richards without a single reply, but after just two letters, I get a reply from you.  Well; kind of a reply.  Your answer to my letter of May 4, 2014: a Planned Parenthood brochure with a yellow sticky note attached with the following message: “I find my work quite meaningful and not at all grisly!  Get a life.”

I guess I struck a nerve when I pointed out the obvious; that you work for an organization that kills hundreds of thousands of unborn babies every year.  I’d be careful if I were you.  The folks at your main office would probably be pretty upset if they knew you got so riled up over being called out for who you work for.  Thanks for telling me to get a life.  No offense, but I’d rather save a life; millions actually.  You can help.  When you close the office today; unplug everything, lock the door, and throw away the key. It’s that easy.

Contrary to what you may think, I don’t hate you.  I hate what Planned Parenthood does to children.  I’m committed to closing the doors of Planned Parenthood, including your office.  How can a nobody like me close down America’s abortion giant?  I haven’t a clue.  What I do have is absolute faith that I can, and a commitment that I will do so non-violently.

Small victories in my fight for the lives of America’s unborn children are important to me.  The way I see it, the time you took to write your snarky little note, attach it to a brochure, and stuff it into an envelope addressed to me was time you weren’t spending to help a mother have her child killed.  The $0.48 Planned Parenthood spent to mail your reply was $0.48 they won’t have available to fund pro-abortion politicians or to lobby for less restrictions on abortion.

At the end of every letter I make the statement that if you write back I’ll publish your reply, unedited.  In the next couple days I’ll publish exactly what you sent to me with no editing on my part.  Just so you know, I won’t give up in my quest to end abortion.  If you really want me to get a life, stop taking them from children.  Take a little time everyday and think about what you are enabling as an employee of Planned Parenthood.  Do some research on the founder of Planned Parenthood and decide if you agree with her goals in the area of eugenics and the extermination of black children.

Planned Parenthood is not welcome in my town and I will not rest until your doors close for the last time.

All my letters are published on my pro-life blog at www.prolifepoppop.com.  Write back and I’ll publish it, unedited.

 

 

Legal vs Right

On January 22, 1973 the Supreme Court issued its ruling on Roe v Wade, making it legal for a mother to have her unborn child killed in America.  It’s legal but is it right?  The ovens at Auschwitz and Dachau were operated under the law in Nazi Germany.  It was legal but was it right?  Ask any worker at Planned Parenthood why they help kill children every day and they’ll say they’re just doing their job.  They’re just following orders.  When asked why they helped kill 6 million Jews in Nazi concentration camps, the former soldiers who served there replied that they were just following orders; they were just doing their job.

My references to America’s abortion mills and Nazi Germany’s concentration camps, and equating them as one and the same are absolutely intentional.  Killing millions of innocent human beings for any reason, whether it’s legal or not, is an aberration, is morally reprehensible, and is simply wrong.  While America’s abortion mills operate mostly under cover of the law, nothing they do is right by any rational standard of human behavior.  Since 1973, Planned Parenthood and their colleagues have killed nearly 10 times as many human beings as died in the Holocaust.

Museums and monuments stand as testimonials to the Holocaust.  The murder of 6 million Jews is recognized universally as a crime against humanity.  No such commemoration has been made for the 56 million children killed since Roe v Wade.  As thousands die every day, most Americans go about their daily lives, oblivious or even worse, ambivalent to the slaughter.  Both the Holocaust and the daily killing of thousands of children, while sanctioned by law, were and are barbaric acts of violence with no moral foundation.  Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s right.  Just because a psychotic moron with a really cheesy mustache decided it was legal to murder 6 million Jews, it wasn’t right.  Just because 5 out of 9 old men in black robes decided it was legal in America to kill children for money, doesn’t make it right.

We all know instinctively when something is right or wrong.  If we see someone in danger we run to help them.  We don’t pause and ask ourselves if it’s legal to save their life.  We know it’s the right thing to do and we take action.  The world looked the other way during the Holocaust and only after millions had already been killed did they move in to end it.  Most of my friends, family, and fellow Americans are doing the same thing as over a million unborn children are being killed every year in America.  Most of them know in their hearts that abortion isn’t right, but it’s legal.

Declaring that something is legal doesn’t confer the moral authority to do it.  Calling a crime against humanity reproductive health care, a woman’s right to choose, or abortion care doesn’t make it any less a crime against humanity.  You can call terminating a pregnancy in a Planned Parenthood clinic anything you want, but the end result is always the same; a dead child.  It’s legal, but it’s not right, and no amount of spin and avoiding the truth will ever make it so.

 

May 8, 2014

Last July I was just getting warmed up in my mission to end abortion.  Cecile Richards of Planned Parenthood is probably tired of getting letters from people like me with the audacity to demand that she stop killing babies for money.  She’d better get used to it because I’m not going away.  This was my 5th letter to Planned Parenthood.  I’m not really sure how many I’ve written to them at this point, but I know they never write back.  Maybe it’s because they never even read my letters or maybe it’s because they know there’s no logical argument for what they do every day.  Cecile Richards probably doesn’t even know I exist; and I don’t care.  If I can be an annoyance to her secretary or the person in the mail room who deals with my letters, it’s a start.  I’m 60 years old and in really good shape.  I figure I can keep this up for another 30 or 40 years.  Eventually, one of my letters will get through.

Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry hang their hat on the 1%.  Children conceived in rape or incest, and those determined to be a threat to the life of the mother account for less than 1% of all abortions performed.  This 1% is what the industry of death uses to justify what they do, even though they represent a tiny portion of the innocent children they kill every year.  In the following letter I used the 1% as a starting point for negotiating an end to abortion.  Since Ms. Richards hasn’t replied, I can only assume that she is considering my proposal.

Ms. Richards:

Since Planned Parenthood and the rest of the pro-abortion crowd are in the business of killing babies for money, when it comes down to presenting a logical, fact-based argument for what you do, you have nothing.  Since you have no justification for killing America’s unborn children, you always fall back to the same old default question:  What about victims of rape and incest, and what if the life of the mother is in jeopardy?  What you fail to mention when using your reliable fall-back is that considerably less than 1% of all pregnancies fall into this category; an honest mistake I’m sure.

Modern medicine has virtually eliminated the circumstances where a mother may be in danger of losing her life if she carries her child to full term; but you already know this.  You also know that after suffering a despicable act like rape or incest, killing the child conceived by this act does not end the mother’s suffering, it adds to it.  Not only does the mother feel the guilt and pain inflicted by the sexual predator, but having an abortion leaves behind the guilt of knowing that she had an innocent child killed.  Ms. Richards, should a child be executed for a crime its father committed?

Since Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry live in the world of hypotheticals, and have nothing without the rape, incest, and life of the mother argument, let’s see how far you’re willing to ride this horse.

If we can agree that abortion is only justified in the event of rape, incest, or to save the life of the mother then we also must agree that over 99% of abortions are not justified.  I want to save the lives of every unborn child, but if we can agree as a starting point that 99% of abortions are not warranted, then I can focus my attention on the remaining 1%.

Ms. Richards, Planned Parenthood killed 334,000 babies last year.  Let’s stipulate that 99% or 330,660 of these abortions were unwarranted.  We can’t undo what has already been done but we can change things moving forward.  From this point forward, let’s agree that Planned Parenthood will only perform abortions due to rape, incest, or imminent threat to the life of the mother; then we can talk about the other 1%.  I’m committed to saving them all, but if we can start here in good faith, I’m convinced we can work this out.

Let me know when we can meet to draw up our agreement to save America’s children.

Degrees of Outrage #2

For almost a week now, the world has expressed its collective outrage over the kidnapping of nearly 300 Nigerian school girls by radical Islamic idiots.  These tough, manly guys showed the world just how tough they were by kidnapping children at gunpoint. They claim to hold the moral high ground and that they kidnapped these kids because they object to what they call Western education.  They can claim whatever they want, but the reality is that they are nothing but a gang of thugs hiding behind their pseudo-religious beliefs.

I have zero tolerance for anything or anyone that hurts children, at any stage of their life.  During the week that these children have been missing, nearly 25,000 American babies were killed before they could even be born.  The kidnapping of these school girls is rightly decried by the world as brutal act of terrorism.  The 25,000 American babies killed over the past week were all killed legally.

Outrage is a selective reaction to a given event.  Outrage by one often elicits outrage by others simply so the others can show the one that they are just as caring as the one initially expressing outrage.  In my humble opinion, outrage is a wasted emotion unless it inspires action to correct an egregious wrong and is channeled in a non-violent manner to do so.  Expressing outrage just so you can be seen participating as part of the collective serves no purpose other than making you feel that you are on the right side of a given issue.

I prefer to avoid anger and outrage, and to channel my energy toward change.  I abhor the abortion industry and the sight of a Planned Parenthood sign saddens me more than it makes me angry.  I’m saddened that many of my fellow Americans see abortion as an acceptable alternative to allowing every unborn child to make its universally unique contribution to the world.  It saddens me every day to see people who abuse their bodies and live their lives in blissful ignorance of the good they can do; wasting the priceless gift of life they were given, while over a million new lives are cut short every year in the land of opportunity.

If you must feel outrage, use its energy to perform good works.  If you have to be mad to get something done, be mad.  Whatever emotion it takes to move you to make a positive change in the world, embrace it.  Find your passion and dedicate your life to it.  Mine is ending abortion.  I may spend the rest of my life fighting for the lives of unborn children and all my efforts may ultimately be for naught; I don’t know.  What I do know is that I won’t spend my life being outraged over this and that just so I can be a member of the herd.  I’ll take my chances working towards a goal that I know in my heart is righteous and I’ll leave it to everyone else to follow their own paths, whether those paths include spouting outrage over the latest tragedy or actually doing something to prevent the next one from happening.

May 6, 2014

I recently decided to take a step back every couple days and republish letters I had previously written, and to include the short narrative I initially intended to write as an explanation for my motivation at the time each one was written.  Last November I was feeling particularly frustrated with business as usual in the country I love.  ObamaCare was becoming a reality and every day it was even more evident that America was being led by an utterly inept narcissist.  The only thing President Obama seemed to be good at was lying and supporting an industry that kills thousands of babies every day.

As I’ve written previously, we can fix pretty much everything this clown has screwed up once he’s out of office.  What we can’t fix are the millions of tiny lives that ended at the hands of America’s abortion mills during his watch.  As with all my letters to the President, I send Planned Parenthood a copy, since he is joined at the hip with them.  The following letter was entrusted to the hands of one of America’s most colossal failures, the U.S. Postal Service, after being stamped and addressed to one of America’s most colossal failures.

 

The White House

Attn:    President Barack Obama

 

November 15, 2013

 Mr. President:

You’re learning the painful lesson that actions have consequences.  You’re also learning the painful lesson that BS will only carry you so far before it all comes crashing down.  Unfortunately, a nation gets the leader it deserves; so we’re stuck with you for 3 more years.  The consequence of electing a President with no executive experience and no discernable skill sets leads to disasters like ObamaCare.  So it looks like we’re all stuck with each other.

We can fix this.  Here’s what you need to do.  Own up to the fact that you’re in over your head and back off.  Go to Camp David or just go anywhere, and let the big boys clean your mess up.  I don’t have the answers but I do know that ObamaCare isn’t the solution.  My focus is on ending abortion and getting through the rest of your term without the country I love falling into total chaos.

Mr. President, Senator Lindsey Graham recently introduced the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act into the Senate.  You have already stated that you will veto this bill if it passes the Senate.  Why do you want the killing of pain-capable children to continue in America?  Do you think our children’s’ lives are less important than ours?  Do you think it’s OK to kill an unborn child even if it can feel the agony of being killed?

Mr. President, let’s face it.  You’ve made one hell of a mess of America and it’s painfully obvious that you don’t have a clue how to manage anything, much less the greatest country on earth.  Try taking the high road for a change.  Stand up for the lives of our unborn children.  Encourage the Senate to pass the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act and promise to sign it if it comes to your desk.  Work to repeal Roe v Wade and fight for the lives of the 1.2 million unborn children killed every year in America.

Mr. President, instead of going down in history as the worst President we have ever had, you have 3 years to turn it all around.  Cut your ties with Planned Parenthood and the rest of America’s abortion industry.  Work with the pro-life movement to end the scourge of abortion and promote a culture of life; not death.  Mr. President, a man in your position wields enormous influence.  Channel your influence towards the good of humanity, and the possibilities are endless.  Spend the next 3 years with your focus on the sanctity of every human life and millions of American children can be spared the horror of abortion.

As always, my letters to you are published on my pro-life blog at www.prolifepoppop.com.  Write back and I’ll publish it, unedited.

Letter to Rick Pollitt

Government Office Building

125 North Division Street

Room 303

Salisbury, Md.  21803-0870

 

Attn:    Rick Pollitt

County Executive

 

May 5, 2014

Dear Rick:

 Salisbury, Md. is a great place to live.  What it shouldn’t be is a place where you can go to the local Planned Parenthood clinic and pay to have your unborn child killed.  Salisbury’s Planned Parenthood clinic is within sight of one of the city’s largest churches, Salisbury University, and the daycare facility that my 2 grandsons attend. Something is very wrong in a city where just around the corner from where people are worshipping God, young adults are attending class, and children are playing with their friends, unborn babies are being killed for money.

Salisbury’s Planned Parenthood clinic is an affiliate of an organization that killed nearly 340,000 unborn babies last year while raking in over $540 million from the U.S. taxpayers.  They are part of an organization that kills another innocent child every 94 seconds of every hour of every day.  I don’t know whether the Salisbury Planned Parenthood clinic performs surgical abortions or chemical abortions.  In the end, the result is the same, another dead child for no good reason.

Rick, I went to school with you and your family, and I know you are an honorable man.  I don’t know where you stand on abortion and can only assume, with your family background, that you are on the side of life.  The battle to end abortion will be won on the state and local level, not at the increasingly dysfunctional federal level.  States across the country are enacting legislation that restricts abortion and makes it harder to operate a facility that kills children for money.  Personhood legislation is taking hold in Alabama, North Dakota, and Colorado.  Personhood legislation codifies the obvious; that an unborn child is a living human being, thus a person, and is afforded all the protections of the 14th Amendment as they apply to equal protection under the law.  Personhood legislation terrifies Planned Parenthood and they are spending millions to defeat it.  They know that once unborn children have legal standing as living, human beings they’re out of business.

Wicomico County can be a leader in the fight to guarantee that every unborn child is allowed to be born, just like you and I were.  I respectfully request that Wicomico County be declared an abortion free zone.  Declare that every unborn child is safe in our hometown and our county.  Let Planned Parenthood know that their industry of death is not welcomed here.  Rick, I can think of no higher calling than the protection of our children.  Enacting legislation or ordinances in Wicomico County to end abortion could be the catalyst for a nationwide movement to save our children.

If we allow the abortion industry to kill another 3,500 children every day in America, and do nothing to stop the killing, we are just as guilty as the killers themselves.  It takes many small victories to win a war.  Let’s work together to win this one.

Letter to Salisbury Planned Parenthood #2

Unborn children should not be killed for money in small town America.  I refuse to accept that less than 2 miles from my home where I run and play with my grandson, innocent children are killed for a fee.  Over the past year I’ve written to the enablers and purveyors of abortion in America.  Now it’s time to get specific.  It’s time to clean up my own neighborhood.  Planned Parenthood is not welcome in my town and I intend to close their doors.  Closing my local Planned Parenthood clinic is just the first step, but an important one.  I have faith that I can do this even though I haven’t a clue how to go about it.  I have faith that the necessary help and resources will come from sources yet unknown to me.  Pardon the cliche, but failure is not an option.

To Whom it May Concern:

I’m your neighbor.  As a child many years ago, I used to ride my bicycle at the same location where you now kill babies.  It was a much simpler time back then.  Roe v Wade had yet to become the law of the land and 1 out of every 3 unborn children wasn’t killed while still in its mother’s womb.  The blood money that keeps your doors open comes from my friends and neighbors.  My mission in life is to close the doors of America’s abortion industry.  Planned Parenthood is number one on my list and their clinic in my hometown is the next one I want to see closed.

Working for an organization that kills over 300,000 unborn children every year is something I can’t imagine.  The children you go home to every night are no different than the ones you helped kill today.  As your children sleep tonight will you be thinking of the ones who will never dream peacefully because of the work you do?  Killing children for a living is contrary to every moral precept of human behavior.  And anyone who allows this to continue unchallenged, is just as guilty as the killers themselves.

I don’t know where you fall in the chain of command at your location.  Maybe you’re new and haven’t yet been exposed to the grisly, bloody side of the business; the part that brings in most of the money.  If you work there long enough you’ll see things that will haunt you for the rest of your life.  Just in case they didn’t tell you when you were hired, Planned Parenthood has a reputation for easing their employees into the bloody side of the business gradually, so it’s not such a shock to you when you see your first dead child.  If you work there long enough you’ll help kill multiple generations of babies.

A small town like Salisbury, Md. is no place for a bunch of baby killers to set up shop.  Come to think of it, there is no good place for a bunch of baby killers to set up shop.  Just so you’ll be the first to know, I plan to petition my local County Executive and County Council to declare my County an abortion-free zone.  Even if they say no, I doubt the big shots at Planned Parenthood will enjoy the publicity.

I take offense at innocent children being killed for money in my hometown.  I refuse to accept the premise of a woman’s right to choose to have her baby killed.  I will not stand by and do nothing as over a million unborn children are killed every year in my country.  Closing Planned Parenthood in Salisbury, Md. will be my first; but not my last.

Letter to NARAL #5

NARAL Pro-Choice America

1156 15th Street

Suite 700

Washington, D.C.  20005

Attn:    Ilyse Hogue

May 3, 2014

 Ms. Hogue:

I continue to be amazed and dismayed by the steps NARAL and other pro-abortion organizations will go to in order to promote the killing of unborn children.  Misinformation, outright lies, and distortion of the facts are all you have to work with in your quest to justify the unjustifiable.  Your latest effort; pressuring Google to remove ads for Crisis Pregnancy Centers from its sites.  Crisis Pregnancy Centers provide counseling, medical care, and alternatives to abortion for pregnant women.  You oppose these Centers for one reason only; money.  You know that every mother they convince to allow their baby to be born is one less baby the killers you support will get to kill; for a fee, of course.

In your recent letter to me you referred to people like me as ‘anti-choice zealots.’  I think we both know that every time you use the phrase ‘anti-choice’, what you really mean is pro-life or ‘anti-killing innocent children.’  I may be a zealot, but at least I have the intellectual honesty to say what I believe without having to use code words like reproductive freedom and a woman’s right to choose.  I also refer to the killing of a baby as the killing of a baby, not a choice.

Ms. Hogue, I stand behind my beliefs, and in the end I’m prepared to accept whatever judgment may come my way as a result of what I believe and promote.  Can you honestly say the same?  Ms. Hogue, what is abortion care?  While I make no claim to being particularly intelligent, I’m having a hard time understanding how care can be associated with the act of killing an innocent child.  None of the 3,500 unborn children killed yesterday received care, unless your definition of care is a sudden, violent death.

I just returned from lunch and drove through the parking lot of my local Planned Parenthood clinic on my way home.  Thankfully, they’re closed today.  They won’t be prescribing death to my grandsons’ future friends again until Monday.  Ms. Hogue, the struggle between the pro-life movement and the abortion industry all boils down to a numbers game.  Your side sees every dead child as one more number on a ledger sheet and one more deposit of blood money to your account.  My side sees every unborn child as a priceless gift to humanity, a priceless gift worth fighting for; whatever the cost.

Ms. Hogue, on your website and in your letters and promotional literature you fail to acknowledge, even once, that the ‘choices’ you advocate for a woman’s right to make, represent the killing of tiny, living human beings.   You fail to acknowledge, even once, that abortion results in the death of a human being every time one is performed.  Your modus operandi of avoiding the truth about what you do will be your ultimate undoing.  I anxiously await that day.

I’ve written previously about President Obama’s 3 votes as an Illinois State Senator against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act.  How anyone could be against providing life-saving medical care to a newly born survivor of a botched abortion is beyond my ability to comprehend.  But that’s just what our President did, and he’s proud of it.

At his press conference today, President Obama expressed his outrage over a botched execution attempt this week that resulted in the condemned criminal dying of a heart attack.  He then went on to say that the Justice Dept. would investigate to determine how an execution could have gone so horribly wrong.   No investigations will be conducted into the deaths of the 3,500 unborn children killed in America today.  As far as the President and his Justice Dept. are concerned, today’s body count in America’s abortion mills was just business as usual.

Last July, as my family awaited the birth of my second grandson, I felt compelled to query the President on his long and sordid history of supporting and enabling the killing of our unborn children.  I dispatched the following letter to him on July 11, 2013.

 

 

The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW

Washington, D.C.  20500

Attn:    President Barack Obama

 

July 11, 2013

Mr. President:

Have you ever noticed how a slug leaves a trail of slime in its path, marking its route as it slithers and slinks through life?  It’s kind of like the trail of blood you’ve left throughout your political career; starting as a mediocre State Senator and ending as an abject failure of a President.  You do, however, get high marks for consistency.  You’ve never wavered in your rabid support of the pro-abortion movement.

I’m trying to get my head around how you could have voted against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act 3 times between 2001 and 2003, knowing that by doing so you were sentencing babies who had survived botched abortions to death.  In essence, your vote gave the abortionist a ‘do over’ if they failed to kill the innocent child on their first try.  This is especially troubling since your first daughter, Malia, was 2 ½ years old at the time of your first vote against life, and your second daughter, Sasha, was born alive, and allowed to live shortly after your third vote.

Mr. President, if you think it’s proper to kill a newly born child by performing a procedure to end its life, or by simply failing to provide life saving medical intervention, at what point do you believe that child’s constitutional Right to life begins?  Better yet, at what point did your daughters’ Right to life begin?  Sir, in what I’m sure you thought was a courageous move, you voted Present in 2001 when you had the chance to vote for the protection of children who were born alive.  Your convoluted justification for your vote was your fear that providing life-saving treatment to a child who had just survived a botched abortion would confer constitutional Rights to the child, thereby rendering abortion illegal.

Mr. President, the semantics box you and the pro-abortion crowd have pigeon-holed yourselves into with terms such as previable fetus (living baby), late-term abortion (murder prior to birth), and CNS decompression (suctioning a living child’s brains from its skull) are closing in on you.  Modern ultrasound and sonogram technology provide irrefutable evidence that a developing baby is a separate, unique, living human being.  Sir, seeing the beating heart of a living child is incontrovertible proof of life.

Mr. President, I won’t give up on bringing you over to the pro-life side.  With your obvious failings as President, one would think you would jump at the chance to climb onboard a movement whose mission is the protection of all unborn children. Think about it and get back to me.

In the meantime, try hanging out with a better crowd.  Being associated with the likes of Cecile Richards and the eugenics crowd has to be a real buzz kill.
