It’s happening…

January 23, 2009, by Zack No comments yet

As I noted during election season, president Obama is the most pro-abortion politician in our nation’s history.
He promised to reverse everything that president Bush did to discourage abortion, and it looks like he’s not wasting any time:

A spokesman for the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) told the BBC that under the Bush administration, the organisation had lost more than $100m (£73m) in funding, affecting its services across 176 countries.

“It’s had a massive impact on delivery of services of family planning across the globe, but in particular in Africa,” said Paul Bell of the IPPF.

“No money supplied by the US federal government can be used for abortion-related services. But this rule effectively gags foreign NGOs from talking about the issue if they accept US funding. It is not applied to US-based NGOs as it would be deemed unconstitutional.”

Open Letter to President-Elect Obama

January 20, 2009, by Zack No comments yet

Ron Jones – pastor of Immanuel Bible Church in Springfield, Virginia, where thousands of people worship each weekend from the Washington D.C. area, many of whom are Pentagon leaders, White House officials, and members of Congress – writes a compelling open letter to president-elect Obama.

I say amen and amen!

Have you signed the petition against the Freedom of Choice Act?

What are you waiting for? Wait an hour and 133 more abortions will be perfomed in the US. Wait a day it’ll be 3,300 abortions…

Oppose the Freedom of Choice Act

From another blogger named Zack (I was signature # 156,821 on the petition):

We are facing a cultural crisis if President-elect Obama brings into legislation the Freedom of Choice Act. This law, if enacted, would wipe away every restriction on abortion nationwide. The Fight FOCA website explains,

Final Election Thoughts

October 31, 2008, by Zack 6 comments

(I know this post is crazy long, but it’s because I took the time to say what I really want to say — and sorry it’s so blocky… wordpress keeps removing my line breaks…):
In a few hours, Steph and I are going to the polls to cast our votes… that is, if she doesn’t go into labor first.
I won’t be triumphantly casting my vote for anyone. Rather, I will be doing so solemnly, out of duty, and based on the feeling in my gut from the Holy Spirit that certain people running will not be good for our country.
I have never been more emotionally frustrated about an election. The Democratic party is running on the idea that “things are bad now, so we will brand ourselves as the party of change, and vaguely define what that might mean.” To me, they are the big beautiful turkey in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Do you remember the scene? Everyone is gathered around the table for Christmas dinner, and Chevy Chase carves into this beautiful turkey, but it basically deflates as soon as the knife touches it… it was mostly just hot air.

Pardon me….

Pardon me while I rant a little bit. I hope you’ll bear with me and read this and let me know what you think, especially if you’re an Obama supporter….

Yesterday, I posted this statement on facebook and twitter:

Barack Obama: the most pro-abortion political figure ever to run for president. Make you wonder what “yes we can” means?
