I've written about Dr. George Tiller in past blogs, most recently about his association with (and funding of) Kathleen Sebelius, Obama's second choice (his first being Tom Daschle--who had to withdraw because of 'tax issues' yet again) to be Secretary of Health and Human Services. But he is the guy who has been performing legal/illegal abortions for over 25 years in Kansas. He "specializes" (yuck..) in late-term abortions and has left many women hospitalized, dead, or infertile. One such time was with a 19 yr old girl with down syndrome...she was 28 weeks pregnant...babies are born and survive at 24 weeks...but they say it's not a 'viable life' yet. Yeah, well the 19 yr old died of sepsis from the abortion. He was a sick man, who's murder services also included funerals, photo shoots of mom w/ aborted baby (great for mother's day cards huh?), baptism, cremation, autopsy, and sometimes the babies were born alive and left in the trash to die. But in his home state of Kansas, he is hailed as a hero for reproductive rights. Disgusting...and this woman is close friends with him--accepting thousands of dollars to fund her campaigns:
But sadly, today Tiller was assassinated at a church service in Wichita Kansas. I say sadly, because the idiot that shot this murderer is almost as crazy as Tiller himself; the shooter has yet again tarnished the reputation of the pro-life movement that has only good intentions. This will fuel the pro-choice liberals who are continuously being appointed to positions of power beyond what their qualifications merit. Operation Rescue coordinator Randall Terry said,
"George Tiller was a mass-murderer. We grieve for him that he did not have time to properly prepare his soul to face God. I am more concerned that the Obama Administration will use Tiller's killing to intimidate pro-lifers into surrendering our most effective rhetoric and actions. Abortion is still murder. And we still must call abortion by its proper name; murder."
In a liberal's mind, it gives justification to the Department of Homeland Security's recent study branding "rightwing extremism" the "most dangerous domestic terrorism threat in the U.S." So funny that while they scrutinize political commentator/syndicated radio host Michael Savage, and veterans returning from Iraq/Afghanistan as being high up on the watchlist, the head of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano says we can no longer use the word "terrorism" to describe middle-eastern/islamic extremists attacks...she calls them "man-caused disasters.." because she didn't want to perpetuate a 'politics of fear'... Call me crazy, but we SHOULD freaking fear terrorists, and we should continue to label them terrorists. I am so sick of people not wanting to hurt other people's feelings, that they put civil liberties before security and human LIFE!
And now we have the newest woman to be appointed by messiah Obama, Sonia Maria Sotomayor, who will soon be confirmed to the LIFELONG position on the Supreme Court of the United States.
Now, I don't know a lot about her. She was first nominated in 1991 to serve U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York by President George H.W. Bush, and then in 1997 by President Bill Clinton for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, and now to the highest court by Obama. Although she is branded a moderate by some, I am hesitant since Obama, who is pushing for FOCA to be passed which would allow abortions in all 9 months, is the one that nominated her to the most powerful position in the country. Obama seems to base his nominations on whether or not the person is a 'victim' enough to deserve power; it has been overly emphasized that she is a "latino woman," meaning no one can challenge her, right? If any of you watched any of the confirmation hearings for Justices Roberts or Alito, you would know that the democrats personally attacked these men solely on their ideology, not how they had previously ruled. I can guarantee the Republicans on the Judiciary Committee won't scrutinize Sotomayor half as much, when they should definitely question her past statements such as when she said,
"...the court of appeals is where policy is made."
really? not interpreted, but made? and then quickly said,
“And I know,” she added, “I know this is on tape, and I should never say that because we don’t make law. I know. O.K. I know. I’m not promoting it. I’m not advocating it. I’m — you know.”
She also has been quoted to have said,
"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."
Why should race or sex even be pertinent at all, when being considered for any position? Why again, is it not racist/sexist to discriminate AGAINST white males? People that believe in this affirmative action crap, only encourage society to treat all minorities as if they are not capable or qualified on their own; they have to have a crutch. Her "richness of experience" and "challenges" as a latina woman, don't make her any more/less qualified than a white man. AND if you ask me, I don't think women are always capable of separating our feelings from logic. So I don't think a woman would ever be a good candidate to serve on a Court which interprets, not makes, policy.
As she hasn't yet received full-backing from the mob at Planned Parenthood, everyone on both sides is anxious to see how things go down at the hearings. Of course, it's not that big a deal because she will be replacing Souter, a liberal, which keeps the ratio of conservative-liberals pretty even at 4:5, some say 4:4:1 being a swing vote. It's just disappointing because so many of the liberal justices were nominated by conservative presidents; their decisions always veer more and more left-wing as time goes on, never more right-wing. With life-long appointments, this is the highest job in the land, and pro-choice groups already know how big a deal this could be for preventing the possibility of Roe v. Wade ever being overturned, despite the fact that fair-minded intelligent judges on either side say the Roe decision is a weak case.
I look forward to Roe v. Wade someday being overturned, as does Norma McCorvey, also known as the "Jane Roe" the whole case was based upon; she is now a huge pro-life advocate, but no one wants to give her attention now do they? Overturning Roe v. Wade wouldn't automatically make abortions illegal. It would turn the decision over to the states. Then if you live in a conservative state and are irresponsible and want to pay someone to kill your baby, all you have to do is drive over to California, or New York etc.
I just had to finally write about all that has been going on with this administration---I haven't even touched on the path of socialism that we are going down, because to me, protecting human life is a bigger priority. Don't get me wrong though, the government taking control of the private sector is going to do a lot of damage to this country--depending on how long he is president, and how extensive his power is, this country may not be recognizable as the 'land of the free'. We are already becoming more like our more 'intelligent' European countries aren't we? Obama is succeeding in molding this country into a land more like his role-model, China. Any culture is better than ours to him. Even countries like Sweden who have recently legalized abortions based on gender selection (already widely practiced in India/China). It doesn't matter- as long as abortion is legal, there need be no 'fair' reason, other than 'it's my body,'; "it" being a separate living human baby with it's own DNA.
THIS is why I am having babies-this is why I am building God's Army!!
