I know this is splashed all over the MSM and stuff, but you may have missed it.  :whatever:



Quote
Obama throngs replaced by March for Life crowds


Just as anti-abortion activists swarm into Washington on Thursday, President Obama may overturn a policy that bans federal funds to non-governmental organizations for use outside the USA for abortion and birth control services or referrals.

It's "throngs" for Obama....just "crowds" for the unborn.

Say a quick prayer for those who are out there today, if you feel inclined...
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.
--St. Theresa of Avila

Of course one feels inclined.

Now more than ever.

The murder has to stop.

Milo Yiannopoulos "It has been obvious since 2016 that Trump carries an anointing of some kind. My American friends, are you so blind to reason, and deaf to Heaven? Can he do all this, and cannot get a crown? This man is your King. Coronate him, and watch every devil shriek, and every demon howl."

Why does USA Today put this under "Faith and Reason"?   This is a political issue and civil rights issue.  It is not a religious issue.

I'm just happy it's there at all!

I'm surprised it's not under some headline like: "Dozens of Anti-choice Protesters Clog Capital Traffic" Or something.

I have Lots of friends there today.

Here's the CatholicVote.org ad agasint abortion. It features Obama in a very unique way: [youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2CaBR3z85c&feature=channel_page[/youtube].

According to CatholicVote.org, "Brian Burch, executive director of catholicvote.org, told PRNewswire that the ad is the first in a series that will use the same tag line [life: Imagine the Potential]. 'Our message is simple: Abortion is the enemy of hope. The purpose of our new ad is to spread a message of hope about the potential of every human life. . . "


"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ! For this very reason, peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity and freedom of worship here." -- Patrick Henry, 1765

I wish I could be there.

As a prospective adoptive mother, I know there are many of us out there who will take on the "burden" of an unwanted child and shower them with the love every child deserves.

When I posted at a site that had a liberal majority, I remember a woman calling a fetus a parasite.  A few years later, this woman got pregnant and was talking about a baby shower.  When I asked, didn't she mean a parasite shower...I was banned.  Truth hurts.
