Issue Position: Protecting the Unborn

Issue Position

I am completely Pro-Life. I lost a daughter many years ago. She was 6 months and 10 days old. I think of her, and her little hand gripping my finger. I cannot imagine the mindset of any person who would support the murder of such an innocent child of God. I suppose that if the mother's life is TRULY at risk, then that mother would have to choose whether or not she was willing to risk death for the life of her child, and such a choice should be legal and left up to the mother.

Let me give you a number… 96 million. 96 million children have been murdered in the womb in our country since the 1970s. That's the entire population of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.

I am told by German friends that there is a tangible guilt which exists to this day amongst the citizens of Germany… a guilt that is almost a part of their nation's DNA… because of the Holocaust.

I am certain that a nation mourns… generationally… when it allows such a thing. 96 million. Yet we wonder what has happened to our American society ?… What has happened to our family structure ?… What has happened to our moral fiber ?… Where is our sense of Patriotic devotion ?… Why are our children so brash and largely ignorant of our current state of demise ?… Why ?… Perhaps we need but look in the mirror, 96 million times.
