The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday

These wise words from the Navy Seals ring true in most of our lives.  Before we decide to take on a seemingly insurmountable task, life is easy, but not necessarily rewarding.  Once we get started, we begin to doubt that our goals are achievable.  We wonder if we should have set the bar lower, if we should have left the heavy lifting to others.  When we put our doubts aside and commit to achieving what we once thought was impossible, anything is possible.  The secret is to move forward with fearless determination and to never take a step backwards.  Own your mission in life, commit to it fully, and ignore those who will tell you that it can’t be done.

My mission in life is to end abortion.  I’m in the warm-up phase right now.  In about four and a half years, when I plan to retire, my full-time job will be fighting for every unborn child’s right to life.  I’ve been told that I can’t make a difference and that nothing I can do will close the doors of Planned Parenthood and their friends in the business of killing babies.  I believe otherwise.  I know it sounds crazy, but I’ve seen a world where we no longer allow our children to be killed and we respect every human beings’ right to life.  It’s a world I want my grandsons to grow up in and a world I would like to experience before my life in the physical realm comes to an end.

The time we all were given is priceless and we never know when our time is up.  The time we waste can never be recovered and no one knows when they’ve performed their last good or bad deed.  I’ve made the choice to do everything I can to leave the world a little better than it was when I got here.  I could have chosen any number of good causes to work for, and never would have thought that I would be chosen to work for a cause.  On May 12 of 2013 I was called to speak out on behalf of our unborn children.  The call was unmistakable and I have no idea why I was picked.  I could have ignored the call and gone about my life; not spending countless hours writing, and not spending every day wondering what it will take to reach my goal.  I could have done anything else with my life, but I couldn’t look into my grandsons’ eyes, knowing that thousands of their future friends are killed every day, and not do anything to stop it.

I work hard at my day job and at this point in my life I’m just doing it for the money.  I look forward to the day in the not so distant future when I no longer work for money, but work full time at something much more important than worldly compensation.   I look forward to working harder in retirement than I ever worked at building my career.  I look forward to the doors slamming shut at all the world’s abortion mills for the last time, and I look forward to the world I’ve seen in my dreams becoming my reality.

 

Letter to Salisbury Planned Parenthood #14

Planned Parenthood

1506 South Salisbury Blvd.

Court Plaza Shopping Center

Salisbury, Md.  21801

 April 13, 2014

To Whom it May Concern:

I haven’t seen a lot of activity at your office lately.  Hopefully, that means fewer neighbors of mine are coming to you to have their babies killed.  If it stays like this, you’ll probably fall short of your target number of dead children this year.  One can only hope.  I believe the universe has a perfect accounting system, and Planned Parenthood’s account has been overdrawn for some time.

Since business is down, this would be a good time to convert the Salisbury office to anything other than a place to go to have your child killed.  Maybe a flea market or maybe a total 180, and convert it to a baby supply outlet where you can purchase necessities for your living breathing child.  Wouldn’t that be a compelling change of circumstances?  Personally, I would opt for tearing the whole place down and wiping its footprint from the face of the earth.

If you choose not to scribble “return to sender” on this letter, you will be reading it on behalf of an organization that kills over 300,000 innocent children every year.  You and everyone in your office have the blood of these dead children on your hands.  Every day that you go to work you are helping to fulfill Planned Parenthood’s racist eugenicist founder’s vision of a world where undesirable babies and any human being deemed to be less than perfect, by her standards, is killed for a fee.

It is an undeniable truth that every baby that enters your building deserves its chance at life.  An industry, such as yours, that thrives by killing innocent children, is contrary to every principle of moral human behavior.  No human being is born with the desire to kill babies for a living.  Your industry and the people working in it are the product of a society that has allowed left-wing politicians and social progressives to successfully promote a no-consequences mindset where you are no longer responsible for your actions.

I hate to break it to you, but you, me, and everyone else is ultimately responsible for everything we say or do.  Your fate is sealed by every dead baby that leaves your building.  Planned Parenthood, despite its so-called success, is doomed to fail.  My mission in life is to see your doors closed forever.   Since I’m not getting any younger, your cooperation toward expediting this endeavor would be greatly appreciated.

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

 

 

 

 

Guilty as Charged

If you were accused of being pro-life would there be enough evidence to convict you?  If you were accused of being indifferent as thousands of babies are killed every day in your country, would there be enough evidence to convict you? These are interesting questions and food for thought.  The actions we choose not to take and the words we choose not to speak often have a greater impact on the world than our conscious words and deeds.  Saying or doing nothing as our society allows its innocent children to be killed in the womb implies endorsement of the practice.  Knowing that organizations like Planned Parenthood are preying on innocent, defenseless children, and failing to protect the weakest among us, is tantamount to participating in the slaughter.

These are my opinions and mine alone, and anyone disagreeing with me is free to do so, since an undeniable tenet of being alive is the ability to exercise your free will.  The free will we all treasure is one thing a baby in the womb cannot express.  It necessarily depends entirely on others for its very existence, and will continue to do so for years after its birth; if it is allowed to be born.  When we allow an unborn child, a fellow human being, to be killed for a fee, we set into motion a series of consequences that will follow us for eternity.  When we deny that an unborn child is a living human being we deny an undeniable truth.

If we look inward, we can see the truth.  We can see a world where every human being is allowed to express their God-given right to life.  We can visualize a world that no longer kills its unborn children and a world where Planned Parenthood is a concept, not an organization that kills hundreds of thousands of children every year.  I can see a world like this in my lifetime and look forward to my grandsons growing up in such a world.  If we can imagine it we can create it.  Imagine a world where every human being serves a sentence of life.

I plead guilty as charged to anyone accusing me of being pro-life.  I will serve any sentence imposed upon me for my beliefs and will not question any evidence used against me.  I will not appeal my conviction nor will I recant my testimony on behalf of the world’s children.  I’ve gotten a lot of things wrong in my life; as a matter of fact the only thing I’m absolutely sure I’ve gotten right is my stance on the side of life.  If there are consequences attached to my beliefs, so be it.  Once again, I plead guilty as charged.

Repost: Letter to Planned Parenthood Mar. 26, 2014

 

This time last year I was a year into my mission to end abortion.  I had been writing to Planned Parenthood’s Cecile Richards for some time, and, of course, all my letters had gone unanswered.  I’m still in the fight and more determined than ever to put Planned Parenthood and everyone else in the business of killing babies out of business.  Reading this letter again after a year, I see that I used the word you pretty liberally.  I was fired up at the time and all the uses of you in my letter were my way of making this a personal thing between me and Ms. Richards.

I take it personally every day that babies are still killed in my country as a matter of choice and convenience.  I drive by my local Planned Parenthood clinic just about every day, and try to imagine the stories behind every car in the parking lot.  Try as I might, I can’t come up with a good reason for taking an innocent life, and to operate a business dedicated to killing children.  I’ll continue to fight for the lives of the world’s unborn children until I no longer can.  And I’ll continue to pester Cecile Richards just like I did in the following letter on March 26 of last year.

 Ms. Richards:

I believe, as living human beings, we all have a few things in common.  We were all allowed to be born.  We value our own lives; love our children and grandchildren, and all breathe the same air.  I’ve racked my brain to try and find where you and I may share common ground on anything else; and I can’t.

You’ve dedicated your life to making the process of killing innocent children readily available and socially accepted.  You are willing to lie and distort reality to further your goals and you run an organization that has killed millions of unborn children since it was founded by an avowed racist.  You’ve used billions of taxpayer dollars to grow your empire of death and actively lobby every day for more.  You support and campaign for pro-abortion candidates and smear their pro-life opponents as a matter of course.  You willingly ignore scientific reality and espouse your twisted views that life does not begin at conception.  You take advantage of scared, confused mothers every day so your organization can kill their children and collect your fees.

Planned Parenthood, under your leadership, kills over 300,000 unborn American children every year.  You promote a culture of death for America’s youth and feign outrage when acts of violence occur, other than the ones performed every day by your employees.  You accuse the pro-life side of waging a war on women while failing to mention that over half the innocent children Planned Parenthood slaughters are tiny baby girls.  You embrace hypocrisy as business as usual and demonize anyone who dares to challenge your motives.  You are the poster child for evil and run an organization that is the leading cause of death for children in America.

Ms. Richards, I don’t like you, you disgust me, and I’m determined to put your organization out of business.  While the sight of you disgusts me, I still believe in redemption.  You could turn your back on the pro-abortion crowd tomorrow and support the pro-life movement.  You could help save children instead of killing one every 94 seconds.  The pro-life movement would welcome you.  All you have to do is listen to that infallible voice that resides in everyone’s conscience, telling us that killing a human being is wrong.

I won’t hold my breath, but I won’t give up hope either.  I still believe in miracles, just like the miracle that every new life represents.

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Contradictions #2

This week a Wisconsin judge struck down a law requiring doctors working in abortion clinics to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital.  His justification was that the benefit of insuring continuity of care for women injured during an abortion was outweighed by the “burden” that would be imposed upon them when trying to find a “qualified” facility at which to have their unborn child killed.  As a country, have we devolved to the point that preventing any inconvenience to a woman seeking to have her child killed is enforceable by law?  An individuals’ right to life, our most sacred founding principle, is being challenged, and won by bottom feeders like Planned Parenthood.

While the abortion industry was winning another battle in their fight to be able to kill more babies, our President was continuing his administration’s negotiations with Iran; negotiations that the whole world knows will lead to Iran developing nuclear weapons.  Ask yourself why a nation like Iran, sitting on over half a trillion barrels of oil, would want a nuclear program for anything other than a means to develop weapons.  This week, as negotiations continued, Iran’s Supreme Leader endorsed an EMP (electromagnetic pulse) attack on America.  It has been estimated that an EMP attack on our country would result in about 90% of us dying, yet our President feels he can trust a regime that is the world’s largest State sponsor of terrorism to abide by any agreement that is reached.

I weigh the words and actions of those that many of us choose to follow without question, and see nothing but contradictions.  I see our elected leaders swearing an oath to protect and defend all of us, while many of them support abortion on demand.  I lay awake at night, as visions of the bloodied bodies of all the children we allowed America’s abortion industry to kill each day run through my head.  I watch as Planned Parenthood promotes itself as a health care provider, when all they really want to do is kill more children.  I wonder daily if all the contradictions I see are seen only by me.  I wonder, at times, if I’m missing something, and that I could do more if I knew more.

Too many of us accept the status quo and choose not to worry about anything that we feel doesn’t affect us.  We go about our lives as thousands of unborn children are killed every day, and ignore the fact that our President is appeasing terrorists while he throws Israel under the bus.  As I write this on a Sunday morning, my country is focused on March Madness and who will make it to the Final Four.  My focus is on the madness that will allow over 3,000 innocent children to be killed tomorrow.  Without the gift of life, March Madness, complaining about an inept President, and fighting laws that allow our children to be killed would not be possible.

The ultimate contradiction is living your life while fighting to deny life to others.  We tread a slippery slope when we value one life over another and choose to look the other way as the weakest among us are killed by the millions.

Impressions

It’s been said that you never get a second chance to make a good first impression.  While first impressions are important, they often don’t paint an accurate picture.  Look at President Obama.  He made one good speech in 2004, that someone else wrote for him, and was immediately anointed as a future President.  Fast forward from his American Idol ascendance to the Presidency in 2008 to the present, and it’s painfully obvious that first impressions can be deceiving.

Take a look at a Planned Parenthood brochure.  The pictures of smiling, attractive young people would lead you to believe that a Planned Parenthood clinic is anything but a place you go to pay to have your child killed.  Even though abortion is their principle source of revenue, they go to great pains to make you believe otherwise.  They know that practicing truth in advertising and publishing pictures of the bloody dead bodies of the children that entered their clinics alive would probably be bad for business.  Pointing out in their literature that they kill over 300,000 children every year would put a damper on the happy-feely impression they are trying to make.

We all make our unique impressions on the world with our words and actions; but it’s never a complete picture.  While the things we say and do leave an impression, the words we don’t say and the actions we choose not to take leave an equally indelible mark.  When we choose to not speak out or take action in the face of evil, we allow evil to advance its agenda.  We all choose our paths as a result of the impressions made upon us by others.  We make our greatest impressions when we act with an inner knowing that we are playing our role towards a goal that is much bigger and much more important than either of us.

When we choose our paths and answer our callings we must do so with a courage of conviction that is unwavering. Only when we are willing to lose everything for the cause we believe in, are we able to manifest miracles and bring about true change.  The world’s unborn children represent the unbroken chain of humanity that confirms intelligent design and the existence of our Creator.  Our duty to protect His creations is our most important obligation, and the results of our actions in the pursuit of this endeavor yield the impressions that change the world.

One life saved is a worthy goal of a lifetime of toil.  A lifetime of toil, absent a focus on service to others, is a wasted opportunity to make an impression that inspires others to perform works they had once only dreamed of.  The impressions we leave behind are evidence of the brief flash of light that represents the life we were given, and the manner in which we embraced it.  Life is fleeting, but priceless.  Preserve it, protect it, and strive to inspire others to hold it in reverence.

 

Letter to Hillary Clinton #1

Hillary ClintonHillary Rodham Clinton

120 West 45th Street

Suite 2700

New York, N.Y.  10036

 March 7, 2015

 Ms. Clinton:

You don’t know me and probably wouldn’t want to.  I’m one of the millions of Americans who would vote against you if you ran for President in 2016.  About a year ago I predicted that you wouldn’t run, and based on your latest scandal, I’m feeling pretty confident right now.  Speaking of scandals, let’s recap some of your more infamous ones; shall we?  We have the Whitewater Real Estate swindle, Travel-Gate, the Rose Law Firm billing records, your role as the enforcer in the Clinton Bimbo Brigade while Bill was President, the Vince Foster suicide, your Universal Health Care debacle as First Lady, the Clinton Global Initiative receiving donations from foreign governments while you were Secretary of State, your incompetence, lies, and cover-up of the facts surrounding the Benghazi terrorist attack, and now, your email issues as Secretary of State, which will most likely end up with you being charged with multiple felonies.  Did I miss anything?

Ms. Clinton, let’s face it; you’ll never be the President of the United States.  Based on the current mess you’re in, and the abject distain the Obama administration has for you, you’ll be lucky not to end up in jail.  Bill will never get the chance to relive his glory days and nights in the White House, doing God knows what with God knows who, and you will just be an average American citizen worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

In spite of all the scandals you’ve been involved in; most Americans probably don’t know that you were the recipient of Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger Award in 2009.  As you know, or would probably deny knowing, the Margaret Sanger Award is named in honor of Planned Parenthood’s racist, eugenicist founder.  During your acceptance speech you stated that you admired Margaret Sanger’s vision.  Her vision included the extermination of the black race and any other human being she determined to be unfit to live.  She referred to blacks as “human weeds” and established Planned Parenthood’s first abortion clinics in poor, inner city neighborhoods with the express purpose of killing black children.

Ms. Clinton, you bring a lot of baggage to the table, figuratively and literally.   Looking at the big picture, the facts that the Clinton Global Initiative spent $50 million on travel and entertainment last year and that you had to run interference and destroy the lives of your husband’s extra-marital dalliances during his Presidency, are small potatoes when viewed against the backdrop of your total body of work in sleaziness and skirting the law.  As a rabid supporter of the abortion industry, you have shown me all I need to see about your character and your disregard for the lives of America’s unborn children.  I think I can safely assume that you could care less about what I think; or as you would say, “What difference does it make?”

My letters to you are published on my pro-life blog at www.prolifepoppop.com.  Write back and I’ll publish it, unedited.  You could email me, but due to your current email issues, that might not be a good idea.

 

 

 

 

The Problem With Abortion

Contrary to popular opinion, the problem with abortion isn’t that it’s legal; the problem is that otherwise rational people don’t have a problem with it.  Abortion is the end result of a systemic erosion of basic values in our society and a conditioned response to a no consequences mindset.  We got to this point by entertaining ourselves with senseless acts of violence, and in the process became desensitized to senseless acts of violence; like abortion. We’ve abandoned the concept of personal responsibility and bought into a herd mentality that we’ve been tricked into thinking will absolve us of the consequences of our individual actions.

In January of 1973, five out of nine old white guys in black robes declared that Roe v Wade was the law of the land. Over the last 42 years nearly 60 million unborn children have been legally killed under cover of law.  The law isn’t the problem. The demand for abortion is the problem.  Legal or not, if the demand for abortion wasn’t there, there would be no Planned Parenthood or the parasitic leaches like NARAL and the NAF that depend on them.  If the demand for abortion wasn’t there, another unborn child wouldn’t be killed every 26 seconds of every hour of every day in America.

We all share in the blame for the thousands of children killed every day in our nation’s abortion mills.  Those of us on the pro-life side could have worked harder on behalf of today’s innocent victims.  The citizens of America making a living in the abortion industry, could have gone home and looked into the eyes of their own children, and realized the shared humanity between their children and the ones they helped kill today.  Our elected leaders  could look inside their hearts and realize that, like it or not, they are looked upon by those they lead as role models.  The positions they support and the behaviors they endorse are deemed the norm by the ones that put them in office.

The problem with abortion is its definition; the act of killing an unborn child.  The problem with trying to justify killing an innocent child is that there is no justification.  I can continue to write about the horror of killing innocent children and the moral ramifications to a society that allows abortion on demand until my fingers wear to the bone.  If my actions don’t save lives or help end the practice of abortion, I’ve accomplished nothing.  If I give up and hope that someone else will take my place, I’ve wasted the gift of life I was given and turned my back on the calling I feel in my heart.

The problem of abortion won’t go away on its own.  Neither will I.

 

 

 

Letter to President Obama #103

The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW

Washington, D.C.  20500

Attn:    President Barack Obama

 March 3, 2015

 Mr. President:

A true leader, a man of honor and integrity, addressed a joint session of Congress today; and you were nowhere to be seen.  As a matter of fact, you had put the word out days ago that you would be watching ESPN or listening to Jay Z as Benjamin Netanyahu spoke.  Your petulance and disrespect for one of our staunchest allies is breathtaking; but we’ve come to expect no less from an American administration that’s become the laughing-stock of the world.

Mr. President, while Benjamin Netanyahu is fighting for the survival of his nation, you seem to be hell-bent on destroying ours.  In the process, you are negotiating a nuclear deal with Iran that essentially gives them everything they want, including the capability to produce nuclear weapons.  A skeptic could conclude that you don’t care about Israel.  For the record, count me as a skeptic.

Then again, there are lots of things you don’t seem to care about; like the lives of our unborn children, their security and financial future if they’re lucky enough to be born, and the rule of law in a country that’s supposed to be governed by the rule of law.  Come to think of it, about the only thing you really seem to care about is exercising your obsessive narcissism and trying to appear competent in a world that sees you as a joke.

Mr. President, if I’m coming off as disrespectful, then I’ve made my point.  While I wish you no harm, I just want you to go away.  Spend the next 2 years on the golf course; travel the world on my dime, or just hang out at the White House with Al Sharpton.  Just stop trying to be something you’re not; a leader.

Mr. President, in spite of all the damage you’ve done as the worst President in our history; most of it can be undone as soon as you are shown the door.  What can’t be undone are the deaths of over 8 million unborn children who will have died in America’s abortion mills during your tenure.  You can’t take back your ringing endorsement of Planned Parenthood and you can’t get a redo on your inaction as millions of innocent children died.

Sir, while I’m profoundly embarrassed that you are the leader of the free world, this too shall pass.  If you choose not to take my advice to do nothing for the next 2 years, put on your big boy pants and dust off your pocket constitution.  Reread your oath of office and think about the welfare of your country for a change, and not yourself.  After 103 letters to you over the past couple years, I’m expecting to be audited any day now.  I’m confident however, that the IRS is just as screwed up as everything else in your administration, so I’ll take my chances.

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.

More of the Same

capitol3I had big hopes this year when the Republican controlled House and Senate were seated..  Both chambers had promised to move quickly on the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act and both have failed miserably.  If they ever get around to passing this bill it will be vetoed by President Obama.  His veto will spark a much needed debate and raise awareness of the brutality of our nation’s abortion industry.  I believe this debate will eventually result in the passage of this life-saving bill.

While our elected officials play politics and cook up backroom deals, children are dying by the thousands.  I was optimistic that this year it would be different.  Now I see that I was duped again into believing that some politicians would actually do what they said they would do if I would just vote for them.  Both the House and Senate have pro-life majorities.  They can save lives and pass legislation to make it harder to have your child killed in America, but they would have us believe that they have more important things to do.  On a national level, it is just as easy today to walk into a Planned Parenthood clinic and have your unborn child killed as it was before last November’s elections.  From my perspective, our country is being run by elected leaders who fail to see or choose to ignore the wishes of their constituents.  We can and must do better.

It makes no difference to the thousands of unborn children who will die in America’s abortion mills tomorrow, whether the person killing them is a Republican or Democrat; they will still die.  Unlike you and me, they can’t decide what course their life will follow.  They can’t protest their own killing, and are powerless to defend themselves.  Every unborn child must depend entirely upon the good will and kindness of others for their very survival.  As a society, we have failed the ones who need us the most.  We’ve made it legal to kill them for any reason, at any time, right up to the moment of their birth.  We even send evil empires, like Planned Parenthood, hundreds of millions of dollars every year so they can kill even more children.

We get the leaders we deserve, and the consequences of our actions against our unborn children have placed us in the position we are now in.  We could end the killing tomorrow, but we don’t have the will to accept the undeniable truth that every new life has the absolute right to simply live.  We take it upon ourselves to decide which child should live and which should die, all the while doing everything we can to preserve our own lives.  We look forward to all of our tomorrows, and deny thousands of children one more tomorrow every day.

Our elected leaders will not lead unless they are lead by us.  They will only take action if it leads to them keeping their jobs.  We have a moral obligation to do right by the weakest among us.  We must demand that our elected leaders do our bidding.  We must hold them to the highest standards and we must individually do the same.  Our children deserve no less.
