| On Jan. 22, our nation commemorated the 40th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s ruling on Roe v. Wade that legalized abortion in America by a 7-2 vote. Steeped in “right to privacy” language, the court ruled that women should have a legal right to abortion. On Friday, hundreds of thousands flocked to the nation’s capitol to commemorate the 55 million lives that have been lost to abortion in the last 40 years, and the mothers and fathers who still bear the scars of their choices. We remembered the 55 million children’s lives lost to abortion, but also that millions

Silly rabbits, abortion was never meant to liberate women. It was meant to liberate the other gender; and it has been incredibly successful for them.

Actually, abortion has helped to make a lot of women behave like men. "Hooking up" has become a pretty popular pastime.
Unfortunately, all that most have discovered is that you give a bit of yourself in every meaningless sexual encounter. Pretty soon you find there isn´t much left.

How could abortion have ever been expected to "liberate" women when all abortion does is MURDER?

Abortion has in fact become a tool for men to pressure women into sex objects for the formers sexual gratification with the expectation that any natural issue there from can be eliminated. All rights but no responsibility. The irony is that with the advent of "women liberating" contraception and abortion the rate and nature of sexual relations has radically change to become one of mutual exploitation. At the same time the rate of STD´s and out of wedlock children has exploded.

This is a moving article. Oh Yeah the culture would have us believe it is all about men and their sexual mores--Well think again. No one who has watched a young man in the agony of losing his potential child without even a right to protest while tears of loss shakes his entire being accepts that false mess of pottage. Those same not daddies can even never trust a woman again long enough to seek a real relationship. while such a young man grieved his equally young sister-in-law cried with him because she could not born the child she wanted so much. The perplexed wife who so easily threw away her child also threw away her marriage on mommy´s advice.

To me,when you look at white abortionists killing black babies it´s a form of genocide under the cover of a law that´s not even on the books.Instead of being dragged before the Hague for a genocide tribunal,they get paid handsomely by the taxpayers for murdering the black baby.
This isn´t by chance either,it goes back to Margaret Sanger´s war on black babies,so the left never gives up on their most heinous people,no matter how evil they are.
The other leg of abortion is taking God out of the equation.Abortion is aout the coldest slap in God´s face you can make but if you don´t believe in God,you don´t fear retribution.

I have relatives who raised their own children, several foster kids & even managed to take in & raise another family member´s children when she was going through severe depression. They loved having a house full of kids & never saw them as a burden. Growing up, I remember being dismayed that they seemed to have too many kids to manage - I thought their family situation was unseemly & chaotic. Today, the mom & dad are elderly & are having health problems. Each of their children, who all live close by, take turns spending the night with them throughout the week. This distributes the care-giving responsibility & greatly comforts the parents who no longer drive. I now think their situation is ideal. Large families tend to take care of each other. Children may seem like a burden to the young, but they sure come in handy when you are old & lonely.

One day I saw a TV program called The Long Island Medium. She is like John Edwards in that it is hard to disbelieve her. In this episode a woman had come to her to see if she could contact her deceased child. The Medium said she saw someone showing her two blankets, one blue, one pink. The woman said sheepishly, "one was a death and one was a termination". She had not counted the termination as a child.

As we are being made to live within a secular society now, makes it a lot easier for people to make others (i.e., the gummint) responsible for the bad decisions the people make. Like we are surprised that belief in the Creator is being replaced by obeyance to and faith in the State. Big difference, no?

Have you ever read ´Heaven is for Real´? It´s the story of a 3 year old boy who has a heavenly experience while in surgery. About a year later, the boy tells his mother who had a miscarriage prior to the birth of the boy, that he had met the sister in heaven. Jesus´ father adopted her. The little boy did not know of his mother´s miscarriage prior to meeting the sister. Book is easy to read.

Well Femanazis you took the Ladies off the pedestal and put them in a fox hole. As usual with leftist the law of unintended consequences has not provided fulfillment, happiness or liberated women, soon they may have to get a draft card. Welcome to the "Hookup" "Oral Sex isn´t sex" world where the Bill Clinton´s Rule and nobody like the opposite that well.

Many excellent posts here. Abortion is mens liberation making it possible for them to avoid responsibility and never become real men. It is also black genocide fulfilling Margaret Sangers racist, elitist, hitlerian eugenecist vision of purifying the gene pool of inferior life.

Even Roe in the infamous case has decried her arbortion. She was shocked at the emotional repercussions that she experienced by having an abortion. About 20 years ago I saw her on a news program telling her story. It was short and sad. If she had it to do over again, she wouldn´t. She isn´t the only one. Pretty damning testimony.

an excellent read "In reality, Roe v. Wade imprisons women by denying the very apex of femininity: the bearing and nurturing life". I have even read the comments below and would put them 50% vs. 50% with the left repeating garbage about all those poor neglected kids. The problem with poor kids as we know is Government bureaucracies which tie up money meant to help them and their parents, foster parents using said $ for their own gratification. This year during 2013 MFL my hopes were confirmed the tide is turning. Forget the MSM those kids who were 5 yr ago in High School are now in colleges, I have seen them then and I saw them now. 300 people from Nashville, TN driving 12 hr in buses, Arizona, TX and many more. 10 years ago I didn´t see banners of Notre Dame and Vanderbilt. This genocide will end thanks to the Pro-Life generation.

If back in the fifties Hugh Hefner had predicted our current situation, with "hooking up," the public discussion of oral sex (because the President did it), and easy abortion, it would have been thought to be the wild dreams of a sexual deviant.
Now we have a world that no one could have predicted, and 55,000,000 dead babies.
As #1 said, all the benefits accrue to the men, with easy sex and no responsibility--so we have a society of grown men who act like frat boys.

This won´t be popular, but the end result is a demographic shift in this country. The lack of a replacement population for a growing economy meant that workers would flood the country to fill the vacuum. Many from Asia and Latin America. Families even a couple of generations ago had six or so offspring (my great grand parents had 10). Then it dropped to three and who knows where it is now. Let´s ask Obama if he cares.

Think: natural and logical consequences.
You spent 20 years impairing your normal procreative power via conrtaceptive drugs and devices? Voila, hundreds of thousands of infertile women looking for expensive (and often futile) reproductive repair tenchnologies.
We spent 30 years avoiding, evading, deconstructing and devaluing marriage? Now you can´t find a decent marriage partner for love nor money.
We spent 40 years establishing the legal "principle" that human lives we think are a bother can simply be "terminated"? Behold terminal care in the UK and soon in the USA: sedate the old, cut off their nutrition/hydration and let them starve to death.
A society that´s killed 55 million of its children? Perhaps there´s a power (or Power) out there that could give us all the chance to play the fetus, and scrape us off the surface of the earth.

God said to Cain "What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother´s blood crieth unto me from the ground. And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother´s blood from thy hand;the blood of his brother, who he killed cried out to heaven." Gen. 4:11,12 What must the voice of 55 million babies blood sound like in the ears of God? What curse/curses of God must America now be under?

This was a letter to the editor in a local paper. "All this talk about gun control has got me thinking. Gun control legislation is to the Democrats as anti-abortion legislation is to the Republicans. Some people think the two are completely different.
For example, guns are violent and inflict death on innocent children, whereas abortion ... better forget that one — I guess there is no difference here.
The current popular paradigm in our country is to ban all guns, you know, protect innocent bystanders and little children from the nut with a gun.
Another popular paradigm is to keep abortion free (at taxpayers’ expense) and readily accessible.
What is the difference you may ask? With abortion, the bystanders are safe, while it is only innocent babies who are slaughtered (over 50 million since 1973).
As you can probably tell, I don’t see much difference between the arguing that is occurring about anti-gun legislation and anti-abortion legislation with the exception that by outlawing abortion we might actually do something to protect the lives of innocent children.
I see an area for compromise here. I would be willing to give up some of my gun rights if the federal government (and pro choice people) would be willing to give up some of their rights to free and unobstructed access to abortion.
After all, I strongly believe that if all this bickering between the president and pro-gun Americans is truly about protecting innocent children (from being murdered at another person’s hand) then the unborn innocent need to be included in the dialogue too."

I am with you #20. I am willing not to have a submachine gun, rocket launcher, and flame thrower if they are willing to give up all abortions except in the case that it will physically kill the mother.
That works for me.

#1,
Spot on. One of the most enthusiastic supporters of abortion was "saintly Catholic" Teddy Kennedy. Since he allegedly bedded thousands of women, the paternity suits resulting from only a few of the bimbos getting knocked up would have bankrupted him. No one can tell me he didn´t have a personal stake in the issue.

55,000,000 American children have been aborted since 1973. One of those children might have cured the disease that will kill you some day.

You may be forgiven if you missed it during last week’s tsunami of scandals, but President Obama finally let slip that he is a socialist. Buried in the 17th paragraph of one of those mewling New York Times pieces on the woes of Obama — can we start calling him Woe-bama yet? — appeared these two words: “going Bulworth.” Obama himself, the Times explained, has been “longingly” telling his inner circle that what he’d really like to do is what Sen. Jay Bulworth, played by Warren Beatty in his 1998 movie “Bulworth,” did: to go public as

Appearing on Sunday morning on ABC News’ This Week, White House Senior Adviser Dan Pfeiffer told a credulous George Stephanopoulos that the IRS’ targeting of conservative groups was “inexcusable,” and that the law with regard to the activity was “irrelevant.” “I can’t speak to the law here,” he said. “The law is irrelevant. The activity was outrageous and inexcusable, and it was stopped and it needs to be fixed so we ensure it never happens again.” When asked for clarification, Pfeiffer expounded: “What I mean is, whether it’s legal or illegal is not important to the fact

Appearing on CBS’ Face the Nation, White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said that it was “largely irrelevant” who edited the talking points the Obama administration trotted out in the aftermath of the terrorist attack in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. Host Bob Schieffer asked, “That was just a PR plan, to send out somebody who didn’t know anything about what had happened. Why did you do that? Why didn’t the Secretary of State come and tell us what they knew, and if they knew nothing, say ‘We don’t know yet?’ …. Why are you here today?

On Fox News Sunday this morning, White House spokesman Dan Pfeiffer was asked by Chris Wallace where in the White House President Obama was during the September 11, 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi that killed four Americans. “Question,” asked Wallace. “What did the President do the rest of that night to pursue Benghazi?” Pfeiffer answered, “Look, the President was kept up to date on this as it was happening the entire night, from the moment it started until the very end ….

The Homeland Security Department has granted legal status to 99.2 percent of all illegal immigrants who have applied under President Obama’s new non-deportation policy for young adults, according to the latest numbers released Friday. That’s a slight drop from the 99.5 percent approval rate reported last month. The policy, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, grants legal status to most illegal immigrants under the age of 31 who came to the U.S. before age 16 — usually brought by their parents. They are allowed to remain in the U.S. without fear of deportation, and are given work

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.
