 "The Democratic Party strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade and a
woman's right to make decisions regarding her pregnancy, including a safe
and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay. We oppose any and all
efforts to weaken or undermine that right. Abortion is an intensely personal
decision between a woman, her family, her doctor, and her clergy; there is
no place for politicians or government to get in the way. We also recognize
that health care and education help reduce the number of unintended
pregnancies and thereby also reduce the need for abortions. We strongly and
unequivocally support a woman's decision to have a child by providing
affordable health care and ensuring the availability of and access to
programs that help women during pregnancy and after the birth of a child,
including caring adoption programs." Source: 2012 Democratic Party Platform

"Faithful to the "self-evident" truths enshrined in the Declaration of
Independence, we assert the sanctity of human life and affirm that the
unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life which cannot be
infringed. We support a human life amendment to the Constitution and endorse
legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment's protections apply
to unborn children. We oppose using public revenues to promote or perform
abortion or fund organizations which perform or advocate it and will not
fund or subsidize health care which includes abortion coverage. We support
the appointment of judges who respect traditional family values and the
sanctity of innocent human life. We oppose the non-consensual withholding or
withdrawal of care or treatment, including food and water, from people with
disabilities, including newborns, as well as the elderly and infirm, just as
we oppose active and passive euthanasia and assisted suicide." Source: 2012
Republican Party Platform , Aug 27, 2012
The President and the democrat lawmakers unilaterally passed the Obamacare
(Affordable Care Act) without a single republican vote. True to the democrat
belief in abortion on demand, and the failure to recognize the sanctity of
life, one provision in the "Obamacare" law is to force the Church and other
faith-based organizations to furnish components in healthcare that oppose
their faith. The President, and DC Democrats support the legality of
abortions throughout the entire nine month gestation. It never ceases to
amaze me to consistently see the cohabitation of two completely opposed
thoughts, ideas, values and practices surviving in the same mind of any
individual. How could one hold the value of Christianity and abortion at the
same time? I understand the theory of cognitive dissonance where the
individual strives for reduction of any one of the dissonant elements. But
how could a Democrat/Christian even remotely reduce the element of Christian
values and relationship in favor of the practice of abortion becoming
dominant in value and practice? There must be a bunch of Democrat/Christians
in DC with a terrific headache! Or perhaps that is the reason they have no
compunction in forcing faith-based organizations, including the Church, to
finance components in healthcare that oppose their faith and value system.

 Could the United States be accused of engaging in terrorist
activities? What if the United States someday legalized the killing
of every man, woman, and child in the 74 largest cities in the
United States. Would that be carried through history as a terrorist
act by the lawmakers who would enact such a law? Even our propensity
to be politically correct and re-label an act of terror as a random
act of violence would not be able to disguise such a tragic event
outside of the reality of a terrorist designation.
And yet, here we are, 41 years after the United States Supreme Court
upheld a decision that killing through abortion was legal. The
effect: the equivalency of the killing of the entire population of
the 74 largest cities in America (over 57 million people).
Isn't it amazing how logical, rational, reasonably prudent, common
sense minds of so many Americans could be controlled by thoughts so
bizarre and evil as to actually come to believe and even accept as
normal a concept that a pregnant woman in our society should have
the power of life and death over the human being she carries simply
because it has been granted as her choice? As a society, could we be
thought of as terrorists for having legally killed over 57 million
people through abortion during the last 41 years of our history?
Make no mistake about it, when you vote for a democrat candidate you
are voting your approval for the practice of abortion. The Democrat
Party has endorsed the full support and funding of abortion on
demand. When you vote for a republican candidate your are voting
your approval for the sanctity of life. There could be no greater
separation of thought regarding this issue.
