It feels like a punch in the gut from out of nowhere. From the fist of a mythical man, comes a blow to our efforts. What it is, is a signature to overturn the ban on funding abortions around the world. And it has been happening each time the party changes ownership of the White House. I and my four babies and my husband joined the March for Life movement on Thursday, January 22, 2009 with about a quarter of a million other demonstrators. I had heard (sarcasm) that there had been a "sea of humanity" to welcome the new president. The rows and rows of port-a-potties were the only evidence I saw that there had been an historic inauguration of a new president. But when a quarter of a million people showed up to see or hear from him on Thursday he was nowhere to be seen. But, the scratching noise of his pen was heard early Friday morning when he signed his name to lift the ban on funding of abortions around the world. So, we rejoin the efforts of all the great eugenicists and we now, with our pocketbook, help to clean up the global gene pool and rid it of the undesirable traits that lead to poverty. Like it or not, that is what we are doing. Oh, and slaughtering the innocents. It doesn't seem to matter to President Obama that thanks to ultrasound we have seen a human being , that we have watched a beating heart, heard a beating heart, discovered whether it was a girl or boy. It doesn't seem to matter that research has shown that a developing baby has feelings. It doesn't seem to matter to President Obama that he has lifted a ban on the funding of the slaughtering of innocent human beings. Most of them are dark skinned, fatherless, and poor. Sound familiar? Perhaps we have too many people that fit those demographics. Again, sarcasm. On this same day, President Obama has signed an executive order to close Guantanamo and signed other orders that would lead to a kinder and gentler approach to how we treat terrorists. While I laud any movement from our newly elected President towards a kinder and gentler nation, I ask him to be consistent. From conception to natural death, let us be kinder and gentler to all regardless of race or gender or class or age. Because a fetus is just a really young person.
