Scientists have stated that life begins at conception. Therefore the debate is over, abortion is murder. So the question now becomes what are we going to do about this epidemic? Hitler killed 12 million innocent people and it was dubbed a 'holocaust'. So far it is estimated that over 44 million innocent people have been ruthlessly murdered since abortion became legal in 1973 in the United States alone.

More dehumanizing still, these victims of the surgeon's knife aren't even given death certificates. Like the slaves in the Antebellum South, victims of abortion are so devalued that we're not even keeping track of how many are dying at our convenience. There are no death certificates for our fellow citiznes. I guess not keeping an actual running count makes it more palatable. Like devastating wars thousands of miles away since we can't see it, it must not be happening. Ignoring the problem will make it go away.

And what is the average profile of this legalized form of murder? The libs keep telling us that we're a racist nation and they plan on keeping it that way. It is estimated that for every white baby there are three black ones killed. This ratio is almost as high as the number of white inmates to black when it comes to the death penalty.

Worst still is "Partial Birth Abortion" (which is supposed to be "a certain late term abortion" to make it sound nicer - just like calling "genocide" "ethnic cleansing.") Since most states call a baby a baby only when the child takes its first breath, partial birth abortion skirts the law by not giving the child the chance. What happens is as the baby starts to crown, the surgeon takes a scalpel and cuts open the baby's head. Then they take what is a glorified vacuum cleaner and suck out the baby's brain. This causes the head to collapse and makes birth easier.

Moviemakers in Hollywood couldn't create a more gorey scene and it's happening every day, closer than you might think.

Now racist, intolerant, murderous pro deathers argue that a woman should "have a right to choose" as if the pregnant woman is the only person involved in the situation. They forget the father who has no legal way of stopping the mother of his would be child. He can't force her to be a mother, but she can force him to be a father if she carries the baby to term - and this gross double standard is called "equality". They also forget the insurance companies - which in some states are required to pay for abortions driving up insurance costs on the rest of us. They forget the families: the would be grandparents, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters.

The pro death movement is a bunch of holocaust deniers. They should be put on trial for crimes against humanity for allowing such terrible things.

The column above is pretty harsh isn't it? So I have a question: how many more columns am I going to have to read that written like this about global warming? Statements about "the debate is over" and then using a bunch of speculatative numbers to back up their argument? I would never truly suggest that the other side of the debate be silenced. They have freedom of speech and press too. So don't do it to me, okay?

March 17th (one of my favorite days of the year, St Patrick's Day) this year will feature yet another anti war demonstration in Washington DC. Nothing special about that. And this demonstration will feature the usual cast of tired characters: ancient hippies trying to cling to their fading youth, movie stars trying desperately to rekindle their smoldering careers, college kids looking for free drugs and the Union rent-a-mobs to swell the ranks the ranks of protesters in an attempt to make them look bigger than they are. This protest will be a march around Washington, passing by some of the monuments to the wars our nation has fought and then up to the capitol.

Okay, that's fine by me. These people have a right to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and so on. No big deal.

But this protest will feature something different: a counter protest. A veteran's group called "A Gathering of Eagles" has announced that they will be on hand at various war monuments to make sure that nothing gets vandalized. After all the reports of peaceniks spraying paint on the White House steps, spitting on Iraq war vets and various other nefarious things I can't imagine why a bunch of vets would want to do this.

Anyway, the left is horrified that someone would dare show up to counter protest them. I personally think what the left is really scared of is the backlash against them. You see, whereas the peaceniks are mostly there to party and take free hits from the bong, "A Gathering of Eagles" is there out of genuine anger. I'll never forget the 2000 election fiasco and the angry protesters showing up at the doorsteps to the election office to prevent the Dems from giving themselves the vote. It was the first time I've ever heard left wing politicians suggesting the crowd shouldn't be listened too. Usually big lefties have tears in their eyes as they point to the assembled mass and say "all these people are here, we should do what they say."

Same thing here. The left thinks they should own the protest lines. Other people shouldn't be allowed to speak against them: that's "hateful".

So as a conservative this is really fun to watch. It would be great if the counter protest turned out to be larger than the actual protest.

Libs think (Spring 2007 update)

I do this every now and then. Time to update the list.

Libs think:

1) The Terrorists were framed.

2) Saddam Hussein was innocent.

3) Tookie Williams was innocent.

4) If brought before a World Court composed of leading Peaceniks, Socialists, Communists and environmentalists Bush would get a fair trial.

5) The best way to protect our nation from foreigners who would do it harm is to give said foreigners rights, privileges and protections above and beyond what law abiding US citizens get (administered by million dollar lawyers working pro bono most law abiding citizens could never hire.)

6) The real reason terrorists hate us is because of global warming and our failure to pass gay marriage.

7) Al Quada was formed by a coalition of religions angry that Bush won in 2000.

8) The FBI is completely untrustworthy (except the reports detailing abuses at Guantanamo Bay).

9) Not voting for/hiring someone because they're black/a woman/gay is discrimination.

10) Not voting for/hiring someone because they're a straight, white male is equalitarian.

11) Spending more money than any other nation at any time in history in an education system that produces students that can't even read and write proves that we're not spending enough on education.

12) The government owns everything, we're just borrowing it for now.

13) #12 is not Socialism.

14) People that can't even fix potholes in roads can trusted with our healthcare.

15) Our military should be subject to world courts and (in the case of Iraq) put on trial for war crimes against humanity. Furthermore soldiers should be kicked off high school and college campi.

16) #15 proves they support the troops.

17) "P*ss Christ" should be supported as free speech.

18) Pictures of the Prophet Mohammed shouldn't be allowed because it's a hateful, irresponsible use of speech.

19)"Democracy Now" is fair and balanced.

20) Forcing climatologists, meteorologists and weathermen to embrace Global Warming *is* the tolerant thing to do.

21) Being "open minded" means not listening.

22) "Tolerance" means banning everything you disagree with.

23) "Bipartisanship" means everyone agreeing with them.

24) The best way to solve California's electricity problem is to get rid of all coal burning power plants.

25) Protecting American Culture is racist.

26) Protecting the culture of immigrants is equalitarian.

27) If we ban war, wars will stop.

28) International law should trump the Constitution.

29) The US having nukes is a threat to world peace.

30) The Iranians having nukes will enhance world peace.

31) Don't judge people: especially minorities who we all know are victims.

32) Don't judge people: especially white men who we all know have had everything handed to them.

33) The best way to enhance free speech is for the government to step in and regulate it.

The Pentagon has decided to crack down on soldiers who are speaking out. Officials have sent out warnings to personal that criticism against (in particular) the president will not be tolerated. Arguing that civilian power is higher than military, the Pentagon has barred the use of "contemptuous" language against the president of the United States. In fact, a memo sent to members of the Air Force actually warning that "insulting, rude or disdainful" speech/writing about the president is against military code.

This is not surprising response considering all the soldiers that are now darlings of the left from Ehren Watada who is in a trial for insubordination to military personnel who appeared on a recent episode of "60 Minutes" denouncing the war. These modern martyrs find themselves becoming instant media sensations by the unbiased, non partisan mainstream media – which isn’t a surprise either.

What is surprising is the Pentagon’s crackdown reference in the first paragraph was from 1998 in response to growing cynicism by soldiers to then President Bill Clinton. The libs didn’t think it was cute back then. There were no television cameras to talk to people like Marine Major Shane Sellers. There were no grinning info babes demanding to talk to Army Colonel John Baer. In fact, most leftists at the time were telling us how soldiers should keep their mouths shut. They were happy when the (at the time) Marine deputy commandant General Terrence Drake advised Marine generals to stay out of the debate over Clinton. One Socialist online paper even put it:

Most disturbing to the Clintonistas of 1998, soldiers had actually started an online petition to get Saint Clinton impeached. By all accounts this was deemed illegal, unethical and punishable by the echelons of military command at the time. According to the "60 Minutes" story "Dissension in the ranks" soldiers have started a petition to get out of Iraq. It will be interesting to watch the contrast.

I’m still stunned that liberal Dems are suddenly interested in the opinion our troops. Wouldn’t the best way for someone to get their opinion out in a Republic like ours is to vote? I guess it’s too bad that leftist closed down voting booths at military bases outside the country. Thus if you want to vote and you’re a soldier, you have to vote absentee – but wait, a lot of army mail comes without postmarks. So any unmarked ballot arriving after the election should be thrown out right? This is what Al Gore did when he was trying to win the presidency in Florida. I guess the military didn’t matter then.

In the wake of this action, Republicans in Congress introduced legislation to reopen military voting booths. But the usual cast of Lefty characters in Congress insured that the debate would go on right up till the Congress would close its voting year.

Too bad soldiers just like the poor – you’ll have to take another hit for Team Socialist.
