Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi support for Abortion at odds with Catholic teaching.

Any Catholic politician who votes for abortion is at odds with Catholic teaching and the law of God. Any Catholic politician who attempts to uphold an already existing law, which promotes abortion, is at odds with Catholic teaching and the law of God.
In short politicians such as Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi are guilty of grave mortal sin. They may not receive Holy Communion.
The same strictures apply to Catholic voters whether religious or lay. Catholic voters should not vote for Barack Obama who supports partial birth abortion. To do so is a grave sin.

The Democratic Party platform supports abortion. It is at odds with Catholic teaching and the law of God. No bluff or bluster from Obama, Biden or Pelosi can obscure this fact. The so -called pro- choice position represents the culture of death.

The following outlines clearly the Catholic Church position on the Abortion issue:

"John Paul II, continuing the constant teaching of the Church, has reiterated many times that those who are directly involved in lawmaking bodies have a «grave and clear obligation to oppose» any law that attacks human life. For them, as for every Catholic, it is impossible to promote such laws or to vote for them…..
When political activity comes up against moral principles that do not admit of exception, compromise or derogation, the Catholic commitment becomes more evident and laden with responsibility. In the face of fundamental and inalienable ethical demands, Christians must recognize that what is at stake is the essence of the moral law, which concerns the integral good of the human person. This is the case with laws concerning abortion and euthanasia (not to be confused with the decision to forgo extraordinary treatments, which is morally legitimate). Such laws must defend the basic right to life from conception to natural death."

Sarah Palin as VP will champion special financial plan for Special Needs Children

Today in Pittsburgh Sarah Palin called for parents of special needs children to use federal funding to pick the school of their choice. She stated that Obama would raise taxes on federal trusts designed to pay for medical and education costs for disabled children.

“In a McCain/Palin administration, we’re gonna put the educational choices for special needs children in the right hands, in the hands of the parents and the good responsible caretakers,” she said. “Under reforms that I will lead as vice president, the parents and caretakers of children with physical or mental disabilities will be able to send that boy or girl to the school of their choice, public or private.”

And, she added, those families are concerned about the tax policies of her opponent.
“They fear that Sen. Obama’s tax increase will have serious and harmful consequences,” she said. “And they’re right because the burden that his plan would pose upon these families is just one more example of how many plans can be disrupted and how many futures can be placed at risk and how many people can suffer when the power to tax is misused.”
Palin said Obama would raise taxes on federal trusts that families establish to pay for medical and educational costs for children with physical or mental disabilities.
“We’ll protect the savings and the earnings of American families and we’ll allow more of that investment and the prioritisation via our own families to make the difference here,” Palin said

Gianna Jessen born alive after a failed abortion challenges Barack Obama

In this powerful ad sponsored by BornAliveTruth.org, abortion survivor Gianna Jessen questions Barack Obama for his active opposition as state senator to IL's Born Alive Infants Protection Act.Born Alive was introduced to stop IL hospitals from leaving babies who survived their abortions in soiled utility rooms to die. Gianna was aborted 31 years ago by a saline abortion procedure.

Gianna testified for the federal Born Alive Infants Protection Act in 2001 and attended the presidential bill signing in 2002. Born Alive passed on the federal level overwhelmingly. The abortion group NARAL even expressed neutrality on the bill, which passed unanimously in the U.S. Senate 98-0.

Barack Obama is such an abortion extremist, he has positioned himself to the left of the entire U.S. Senate and NARAL. If it were up to Obama, Gianna would not be here today.

Obama has mystical powers:He sees dead people in his audience

In a Memorial Day speech on May 26, 2008, in Las Cruces, NM, Obama says "on this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes--and I see many of them in the audience here today." Another gaffe by one of the most gaffe prone politicians in American history.

Obama Twists John McCain's Words And Attacks Using Lies And Distortion

Obama took John McCain's words out of context today in Eerie, PA and launched a dishonest attack in a betrayal of his often stated brand of politics.

Philadelphia debate: Time to challenge Clinton and Obama on their half baked economic policies and forget sideshows

Tonight Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton debate at the National Constitution Center. The debate is being telecast nationally by ABC and will start at 8 p.m.

Since the last debate in Ohio on Feb. 26 both candidates have been buffeted by controversy.
There has been a major controversy over comments made by Obama’s pastor Rev Jeremiah Wright.
Tonight Obama will likely have to explain, what he meant when he told donors in San Francisco last week that Pennsylvanians are “bitter” over their economic circumstances and “cling” to religion and guns."
Support for Obama in Pennsylvania was on an upward curve prior to his San Francisco statement. On the basis of several polls Obama appears to be trailing Clinton by at least 6%.

It is likely that Clinton will attempt to goad him, in the hope that he may make another foot in mouth comment tonight. She will attempt to portray him as inexperienced, rash and elitist. Success for Clinton tonight could stampede more blue-collar voters into the Clinton camp and result in a devastating defeat for Obama in Pennsylvania. If such a scenario were to unfold Clinton could sway more super delegates. Nevertheless Obama will probably prevail in the North Carolina Primary. In the unlikely event of a knock out blow by either candidate, the scene is set for a possible bloody convention.

Clinton herself will come under pressure on her Bosnia lies. Indeed she has a history of exaggeration and lies. Obama will probably target Clinton on this issue. He will attempt to portray Clinton as a political insider incapable of introducing meaningful change.

Is it too much to hope for some forensic questioning of both Clinton and Obama on their economic policies?
Both have attempted to bribe voters with their own money. Both are committed to an enlarged role for the state. Increased bureaucracy and quangos- as advocated by both candidates- will lead to an explosion in public expenditure and massive rises in taxation. There are no free lunches.

This is a watershed election. Clinton and Obama are Socialists. McCain is conservative and favours restraint in public expenditure and low taxes.

An appalling vista could unfold: A Democratic President and a Democratic Congress.- both pledged to huge public expenditure splurges. No doubt Clinton or Obama would introduce change. The change would involve higher taxation.

George Soros and Progressive Media in $40 million dollar plan to attack John McCain-Democratic attack machine gears up

Wealthy Democrats such as George Soros and real estate magnate Steve Bing are preparing a four-month, $40 million media campaign of attacks on Sen. John McCain. These attacks are designed to destroy McCain and are expected -by some Republicans- to plumb the depths of scurrility. The campaign will be led by David Brock, a former investigative reporter. Brock is the chairman of the new group Progressive Media USA. The new organization was formed after two earlier organizations, Fund for America and the Campaign to Defend America, failed raise sufficient finance to launch an all out attack on McCain. George Soros contributed $2.5 million to Fund for America. Progressive Media intends to continue its activities after the conclusion of the Presidential Election campaign

Attacks from this extreme left organization may backfire and are likely to scare off middle income voters. Progressive Media USA supports proposals from Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to raise taxes and has a strong Socialist agenda.

Jon Corzine a Clinton super delegate to switch to Barack Obama?

Gov. Jon Corzine, a Clinton super delegate, has just stated on CNBC's Squawk Box that he reserves the right to change his vote from Hillary Clinton if she doesn't win the popular vote. Looks like its curtains for Clinton. It is highly unlikely that the super delegates will deprive Obama of the nomination if he wins the popular vote. To do so would precipitate a cataclysmic split in the Democratic Party as African Americans departed.

Abortion is a lucrative business for Planned Parenthood-Clinton and Obama's shame as they jettison fifth commandment

This is an excerpt from an article titled "Planned Parenthood Breaks $1 Billion Mark" by Joe Murray in the Bulletin (Philadelphia’s Family Newspaper)
For the first time in its history Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the nation's largest provider of abortion services, surpassed the $1 billion mark. The organization's 2006-2007 Annual Report showed an income of $1.017 billion, an increase from the $972 million reported in the 2005-2006 annual report.....
This evil organization is playing a major role in the destruction of unborn life in the womb in the US. Approximately 1.5 million women have abortions in the US annually. Yet 2,000,000 Americans are waiting to adopt babies.

In excess of 50,000,000 babies have been done to death by abortion in the US since Roe V Wade.
Abortion is the new holocaust. The abortion clinics are the new gas chambers. The pro aborts are the new Nazis.
Obama is rated 100% by NARAL (National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws) on pro-choice votes in 2005, 2006 & 2007. Hillary Clinton claims that he is not pro abortion enough.
They are both cowards and are pandering to the culture of death. They are unworthy of the office of President. Obama in an address to Planned Parenthood trumpeted his support for liberal abortion. The word God did not enter the equation. As far as Obama is concerned God has no rights on the issue. The FIFTH COMMANDMENT has been binned. Obama supports the secular humanist position. In his speech he also referred to Martin Luther King (Jnr) and non- violent direct action. What about the violence inflicted on the defenceless child in the womb? That is violent direct action. Obama and Clinton have set their faces against GOD.

McCorvey, the plaintiff, in the Roe V Wade case was given the pseudonym Jane Roe. The defendant was Henry Wade, the district attorney. The Roe v Wade case legalized abortion in the US in 1973. In the 1990s McCorvey converted to Catholicism and has became a strong pro-life advocate. She has said that she was partially responsible for the killing of 40-50 million human beings.

The Pro Life Club at the Ohio State University provides the following damning information on abortion:

Abortion is inherently unsafe to the mother.
Physical problems from abortion can include haemorrhage, infection, sterility and even death.
Psychological effects can include depression and mental trauma to divorce and suicide.
Women often experience "severe" or "intense" pain during an abortion.
The psychological effects of an abortion are so well documented, that psychologists have grouped them under one name: post-abortion syndrome (PAS). Women may experience symptoms of PAS right after the abortion, but oftentimes PAS does not manifest itself until many months or years after the abortion.
Symptoms of PAS are: recurrent memories, dreams of the abortion experience, avoidance of emotional attachment, relationship problems, sleep disturbance, guilt, memory impairment, hostile outbursts, and substance abuse.
Fathers, grandparents, and siblings can also experience the psychological effects of abortion.

Obama's Pastor: "God Damn America"

Racism is endemic in the Clinton campaign. However Obama must distance himself from Rev. Jeremiah Wright or face the wrath of the voters. The Rev Wright states that "The government gives them (African Americans) the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people," he said in a 2003 sermon. "God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme." He said that the United States had brought on al Qaeda's attacks because of its own terrorism.

"We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye," Rev. Wright said in a sermon on Sept. 16, 2001.

"We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost," he told his congregation.
The Democratic Party is the real racist party.

Barack Obama's mentor Rev Jeremiah Wright - Hillary aint never been called a .....

Clintons hypocrisy on the race issue stinks

Hillary Clinton’s hypocrisy on the race issue stands condemned. In the course of her New Hampshire primary campaign she decided to launch an exocet in the form of the race card. She said that while Martin Luther King talked about equality, it took a president like Lyndon Baines Johnson to do the real work of getting civil rights passed. Essentially she was stating that Martin Luther King was all talk and no action just like Barack Obama. Responsibility for the ugly racial squabbles within the Democratic Party rests with Clinton and not with Obama.

Former Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro quit her links to the Hillary Clinton campaign yesterday after she attributed Barack Obama's success to the fact that he was black. Her remarks have created a political storm. Ferraro in introducing the race issue had merely taken her cue from Bill and Hillary Clinton. Of Ferraro's comment, Hillary Clinton said: ''I certainly do repudiate it and I regret deeply that it was said. Obviously she doesn't speak for the campaign, she doesn't speak for any of my positions, and she has resigned from being a member of my very large finance committee.'' Of course Hillary required her resignation. This is a meaningless gesture. Ferraro has done the dirty work for Hillary by keeping the race issue on the boil. Secretly Hillary is happy with Ferraro’s comments. They serve to widen the chasm between Caucasoids and African Americans.


Last night Hillary Clinton apologized to leaders of 200 black community newspapers for any offense caused by her husband's comments on January 26th comparing Barack Obama's victory in the South Carolina primary to Jesse Jackson's in 1984 and 1988. This was an ugly smear designed to couple Obama with Jackson who is detested by a large segment of the white community.
Bill Clinton’s comments -at the behest of Hillary- fanned the flames of racial division. There is evidence that this tactic has worked in states such as Ohio.


On March 13th almost seven weeks after the event Hillary decided to “apologise” for Bills comments. Her hypocrisy stinks to high heavens. Did Bill resign? Of course not. This “apology" is a meaningless gesture.

Whilst Democrats squabble on the race issues the GOP promotes African Americans such as Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice.
Hillary Clinton should withdraw from the campaign. She is a divisive influence. It is time for the US to elect John McCain.

Racism lubricates the wheels of the Clinton campaign

Racism lubricates the wheels of the Clinton campaign. The Clintons are engaged in a subtle campaign to polarise the electorate into a Caucasian v African American fight. If Republican Party politicians had behaved in a similar manner Liberals would have had a field day. The Liberal media is largely silent.

(1) Remarks made by Clinton about the role of Martin Luther King, Jr. in the Civil Rights movement provided clearcut evidence that Hillary intended to use the race card. She said that while Martin Luther King talked about equality, it took a president like Lyndon Baines Johnson to do the real work of getting civil rights passed. Essentially she was stating that Martin Luther King was all talk and no action just like Barack Obama.

(2) In Columbia, SC Bill Clinton said: "Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in '84 and '88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here."
This was in response to a question from ABC News' David Wright about it taking "two Clintons to beat" Obama. Jackson's name had not been mentioned.

(3) The photo of Obama in traditional Kenyan attire. There is a strong suspicion that this came from the Clinton campaign.

(4) Staunch Clinton supporter and former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro said:
“If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman of any colour, he would not be this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in this concept.”

Clinton Attempts To Buy Tax Payers With Their Own Money

Read the frightening implications of Clinton and Obama plans in McClatchy Truth to Power
Both Democratic candidates are embarked on a policy of buying tax payers with their own money.
Their plans can be brought to fruition only by hikes in direct and indirect taxation. Stealth taxation will also fund some of the promises. Clinton and Obama pay lip service to Middle Class concerns but continue to churn out the promises and proposals, which will squeeze the life blood out of tax payers. There is a tendency in some conservative circles to assume that Clinton is somewhat less threatening than Obama. Nothing could be further from the truth. Policy differences between both are miniscule. Both are Socialists who favour more state involvement, quangos and bureaucracy. Tax Payers will fund their folly. A Democratic President and a Democratic controlled Congress is an appalling vista for tax-payers.

Obama propaganda video-Hillary Clinton Mocks Barack Obama

This Obama 08 video emphasizes the mutual loathing between Clinton and Obama. Clinton comes across as shrill nasty and sarcastic. Here she commits a monumental error of judgement. Obama is much too syrupy. The Democratic campaign has become increasingly personal, as there are few policy differences between the suave Obama and the caustic Clinton. Both are left of centre politicians whose policies -if implemented -would lead to massive tax hikes.

Obama and Clinton seek change to Socialism

Essentially there is little difference in the policy platforms of Clinton and Obama. Both favour greater state involvement. Obama's promises now total $800 billion. Both Clinton's and Obama's proposals on health -if implemented-would have frightening implications for the national finances. Neither candidate has spelled out details on the funding of these extravagant promises. Only one conclusion is possible. Both intend to raise taxes- directly and by stealth. God help the middle class.

Clinton and Obama policies a recipe for economic stagnation

In the Democratic presidential debate in Cleveland, Ohio both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama attacked NAFTA.

Hillary Clinton said:

It is not enough just to criticize NAFTA, which I have, and for some years now. I have put forward a very specific plan about what I would do, and it does include telling Canada and Mexico that we will opt out unless we renegotiate the core labor and environmental standards -- not side agreements, but core agreements; that we will enhance the enforcement mechanism; and that we will have a very clear view of how we're going to review NAFTA going forward to make sure it works, and we're going to take out the ability of foreign companies to sue us because of what we do to protect our workers.

Barack Obama said:

I will make sure that we renegotiate, in the same way that Senator Clinton talked about. And I think actually Senator Clinton's answer on this one is right. I think we should use the hammer of a potential opt-out as leverage to ensure that we actually get labor and environmental standards that are enforced. And that is not what has been happening so far. That is something that I have been consistent about. I have to say, Tim, with respect to my position on this, when I ran for the United States Senate, the Chicago Tribune, which was adamantly pro-NAFTA, noted that, in their endorsement of me, they were endorsing me despite my strong opposition to NAFTA.

Whilst NAFTA has undoubtedly contributed to job losses in Ohio and in other states it has also boosted jog creation in some sectors. Ohio is a major exporter to both Canada and Mexico. A withdrawal from NAFTA would hit many Ohio companies very hard and cost jobs. It would hit business confidence. In the long term protectionism will harm the US economy and encourage inefficiency. Free trade encourages efficiency and prosperity. Both Clinton and Obama are disingenuous. A withdrawal from NAFTA will not restore jobs lost in Ohio. They are cynically misleading the voters. If Obama and Clinton are really serious US business faces an uncertain future. In addition both have made promises totalling in excess of $800 billion dollars. The implications for US taxpayers are horrendous.

Bill Clinton Loses Temper, Lashes Out at Pro-Lifers

Bill Clinton is his usual bad tempered self as he is greeted by over a hundred pro-life students from Franciscan University of Steubenville protesting him on his abortion policies as President.
As President, Clinton vetoed the partial-birth abortion ban twice, a ban that the vast majority of Americans supported.
In 2006, John Kerry came to Steubenville and was greeted by over 500 pro-life students protesting his visit, telling him "You can't be both Catholic and pro-abortion."

Vote for the Right to Life in 2008. A vote for Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama is a vote for abortion. Hillary Clinton is a strong supporter of partial birth abortion. Bill Clinton speaks about individual rights. What about the rights of the unborn child?
January 22, 2008 was the 35th anniversary of Roe v Wade. 50 million babies have died in surgical abortions since that day of infamy.

Women Who've Had Abortions carries case histories of women who regret having had an abortion. It is an eye opener. These women now realise that they were misled by the pro aborts.

Maryland and Washington DC Primaries-victories for McCain and Obama-the political fallout

Barack Obama has inflicted crushing defeats on Hillary Clinton in Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia. This has been a black day for Clinton. Not alone has Obama eaten into Clinton's strong support among whites and amongst the elderly but he also now has a slight lead in the delegate count. Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania are now pivotal states. A Failure to win these would probably cost Clinton the nomination.

John McCain's progress to the GOP nomination continues unabated with victories in Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia. McCain must now unify the Republican Party by winning over conservative sceptics. In addition he must articulate policies that resonate with the public-policies which are grounded on solid conservative principles and which will improve living standards. An over emphasis on his war record will be a turn off for the majority of voters. This election will be won and lost on the economy and the competence of the presidential candidates.When McCain wins the nomination he must bring Mike Huckabee on board his campaign. He would make an excellent vice presidential candidate.
