Rep. Mike Pence Delivering Powerful Remarks At The "March for Life"
GOP Rep. Mike Pence delivering powerful remarks at the "March for Life", January 23, speaking out against the abhorrent Roe vs. Wade decision which legalized the taking of innocent human life through abortion.
“And we know this: We will win this fight. Because the deepest desire of every mother and father is to protect their child at any cost – even the cost of their lives. And the American People will make this right. We will restore the sanctity of life to the center of American Law, because every American knows in their heart this is the greatest nation on earth because we acknowledge the God-given rights to liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and the unalienable right to life.”
“And as to focusing on spending, I agree,” Pence told the crowd on Monday. “Let’s start by denying all federal funding for abortion at home and abroad.”
Pence has been advocating ending funding for abortion, and particularly for Planned Parenthood, since 2007.

More than 27,000 people secured tickets to the event/rally and there were thousands more that atteneded without tickets to hear the speakers.

At the Saddleback Civil Forum on the Presidency, Rev. Rick Warren asked both candidates the question: At what point does a baby gets “human rights.” McCain’s answer was direct “At the moment of conception.”
Obama’s answer was the non-answer heard round the political world. His voting record is solidly Pro-Abortion .
Rev. Rick Warren: That was a freebie. That was a gimme. That was a gimme, OK? Now, let’s deal with abortion; 40 million abortions since Roe v. Wade. As a pastor, I have to deal with this all of the time, all of the pain and all of the conflicts. I know this is a very complex issue. Forty million abortions, at what point does a baby get human rights, in your view?
OBAMA: Well, you know, I think that whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade.
House Republicans Introduce Bills That Would Outlaw Subsidized Abortions
Less than 24 hours after the House of Representatives voted to repeal Obamacare, GOP lawmakers began drafting their own healthcare proposals, including legislation that would limit funding for abortion.
On Jan. 20, the House approved a measure that directs four committees — Ways and Means, Energy and Commerce, Education and Workforce and Judiciary — to work on healthcare laws that reflect the GOP's agenda. It didn't take long for Republicans to introduce two bills that would eliminate taxpayer-funded abortions, the Protect Life Act and No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.

This is something in the obamacare that has really outraged me. Knowing my tax money goes to kill the unborn.

Mike Pence - This is our man.
Over the years, there have been marches on Washington for this and that causes.
The March for Life is one march that has faithfully continued regularly every cold January since 1974 with very little media coverage.
The Archdiocese of Washington holds a Youth Rally & Mass for Life every year as well where the D.C. Armory and Verizon Center are filled with tens of thousands.
Here are more than 20 interesting and hard to find pictures of these good, decent people that braved the cold along Constitution Avenue and down the Mall to the U.S. Capitol building in Washington yesterday:

The EWTN channel has been airing a Mother's story of how her 16 yr old had an abortion with their permission in '93. She is in a vegetative state now due to the loss of blood during the procedure and other events that horribly went wrong. The story takes your breath away. I found myself in a state of prayer and sadness immediately after watching. This young lady's life was destroyed, and her parents take care of her at home 24/7. The doc still continued to practice following a slap on the hand.

I wonder at the doctors that willingly perform abortions. To me they are on a par with ambulance chasing trial lawyers. Greed over morals. I can visualize John Edwaeds being an abotion doc if he had gone to medical school.

Everything is above his paygrade.
And the woman/girl doesn't have to be 16 they can be 23. They never tell you what can happen after the Abortion/murder. They always call it 'the procedure'. What can follow, is: Depression, mental illness and it can progress to the point of the Girl/Woman taking her own life, because they can no longer live with themselves. You not only lose a wife but a child too. It is the worst thing in the world to go through. It runs the gamut, from overdosses in restaurants, Ambulances ER Stomach pumps and charcoal, to actually jumping off a bridge,...then the EST, electro-shock-therapy,drug management, Padded rooms, stripped naked so they can't hurt themselves, straight jackets, they still use them this goes on for 2-3 months, then they send her home, and you watch the regression all over again...and there aint nothing you can do about it...They have their own little world and they visit reality for awhile then go back to where ever it is they have found peace and deep down inside you know what is going to happen.
All of this because of a fucking abortion. The first sacrement of the religious left.
We can't be this stupid still.
