Men fight for the good so they don’t have to fight against the evil.
Or as GOD says:
Proverbs 14: 34 (NIV)
“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people.”
Mathew 15: 17-20 (NIV)
[Jesus asked them.] ‘Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder [abortion], adultery, sexual immorality [homosexual behavior], theft, false testimony, slander. These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”

Everyone of these Republicans In Name Only should be primaried and defeated by an actual constitutional conservative who has not capitulated to the radical homosexual lobby in this nation. These 24 RINOs by voting to affirm the delusional fantasies of transsexuals are helping to destroy the military and are, in my opinion, putting both delusional transsexuals and all other military personnel in danger on the battle field during combat.

https://illinoisfamily.org/politics/unsustainable-raising-taxes-solves-nothing-makes-illinois-worse-off/
“The Illinois State House was back in session this afternoon to override Governor Bruce Rauner’s veto of a 32 percent permanent tax hike on Illinois families (SB 9). This tax grab also raises the corporate income tax rate by 33 percent. As anticipated, the House voted to override the veto this afternoon by a vote of 71-42 [71 being the minimum number of votes to override.]—with 61 Democrats and 10 Republicans voting in favor of increasing our taxes [By raising the tax rate by 32%. Plus, no doubt, increasing the cost of goods and/or increasing unemployment by raising corporate income tax rates by 33 1/3rd percent.].

One month after the 45th year of the illegal, unconstitutional Roe vs. Wade decision, 84,932 babies within the womb have been murdered because of federal government sanctioned evil based upon one million murders of babies within the womb per year. And the AMERICAN HOLOCAUST continues day after day. What has Congress done to stop the unconstitutional murder of our own children? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Congress can not even defund Planned Murderhood. Establishment Republicans continually CAPITULATE to the Leftist MURDERERS.

Petition: http://nationalprolifealliance.com/lacAM_petition.aspx?pid=0219&npla=EH17
Abolishing the murder of babies within the womb by Congressional law will actually be faster and more effective than waiting on the court. Right now there are five justices on the court who support the murder of babies within the womb. The four radical Leftist justices appointed by Democrat Presidents and Justice Kennedy. Therefore, to even have a chance of the court reversing, we need one more Constitutional Justice and the one appointed has to replace one of the five pro-murdering babies within the womb justices. Even then, it would take a couple of years, at least, to get the case through the court system.
Passing a law of Congress is the best way of ending the terror of our American holocaust. The best way to abolish the murder of babies within the womb. The best way to stop any State from passing a law allowing the murder of babies within the womb. And it is also best constitutionally.
Life for all persons within the United States including babies within the womb is guaranteed and protected by the Declaration of Independence, Amendment V of the United States Constitution, and Amendment XIV of the United States Constitution. No court, no government body, no individual can constitutionally sanction the murder of babies within the womb. All such decisions, laws, and regulations are patently unconstitutional and illegal and should be immediately abolished by Congress by law!
Statistically, everyday of delay over 2,700 babies are murdered in the womb through abortion using 1 million abortions a year as a baseline. It is past time to attack the evil of murdering babies within the womb on every front with every legal weapon we can use until the murder of babies within the womb is abolished completely throughout the United States and its territories. Murder of babies within the womb is a horrendous evil that needs to and must be terminated.
Sign the petition to the Health and Human Services Secretary to help put an end to taxpayer funding of Planned Murderhood.

No organization that murders babies within the womb and/or supports and promotes the same should ever receive federal government money either directly or indirectly.
The latest released video exposing Planned Murderhood and the murder of babies within the womb industry:

Petition to defund the United Nations:
http://madisonproject.grassrootsaction.us/defund-the-united-nations-h/
The UN is a completely failed organization. It needs to be defunded.
¨
For its attacks on the sovereign State of Israel,
¨
For its promotion of and support for murdering babies within the womb and the radical homosexual agenda.
¨
For supporting and promoting the scientific nonsense of man-made global warming,
¨
And for its call for one world government in direct violation of the sovereignty of the United States of America.
¨
Then, the US needs to get out of the UN and get the UN out of the US.
I have been asking these questions for a good while. The correct answers are given below.
A brief quiz on the Constitution:
1) What Article, Section, Paragraph within the United States Constitution gives the federal courts the power to interpret the Constitution of the United States?
There is no provision within the Constitution that gives the federal courts the power to interpret the Constitution of the United States.
2) What are the constitutional qualifications for individuals appointed to the federal courts?
Appointed by the President and approved by the Senate by a simple majority vote. There are no other specific qualifications. They do not have to be lawyers. Technically, there is not even a citizenship requirement.
3) What is the constitutional term of office for individuals appointed to the federal courts?
Good behavior. As stated in this post: https://votevance2016.blogspot.com/2017/09/constitution-day-federal-courts.html there is no “life time” appointment. The correct answer is good behavior.
Restore the Constitution
Take Back the Nation
I am a Christian, Constitutionalist, conservative
Isaiah 1: 1-31 (NIV)
The vision concerning Judah and Jerusalem [Applicable to the United States today, in my opinion. GOD is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. HE is righteous, just, and true yesterday, today, and tomorrow!] that Isaiah son of Amoz saw during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
Hear me, you heavens! Listen, earth! For the Lord has spoken: ‘I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me [The United States has and is rebelling against GOD!]. The ox knows its master, the donkey its owner’s manger, but Israel [the United States] does not know, my people [the United States] do not understand.’
Woe to the sinful nation [the United States], a people whose guilt is great, a brood of evildoers, children given to corruption! They have forsaken the Lord [the United States]; they have spurned the Holy One of Israel [the United States] and turned their backs on him [the United States] .
Why should you be beaten anymore? Why do you persist in rebellion? Your whole head is injured, your whole heart afflicted. From the sole of your foot to the top of your head there is no soundness—only wounds and welts and open sores, not cleansed or bandaged or soothed with olive oil.
Your country is desolate, your cities burned with fire; your fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you, laid waste as when overthrown by strangers. Daughter Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a cucumber field, like a city under siege. Unless the Lord Almighty had left us some survivors, we would have become like Sodom [destroyed by GOD because of homosexual sin!], we would have been like Gomorrah [destroyed by GOD because of homosexual sin!].
[Read Genesis 18 and 19 for the Biblical account. Genesis 19: 23-29 (NIV)]
“By the time Lot reached Zoar, the sun had risen over the land. Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the Lord out of the heavens. Thus he [GOD] overthrew those cities and the entire plain, destroying all those living in the cities [A righteous act by a righteous GOD WHO destroyed evil people who refused to repent from their evil. And yes, I believe the account and so did JESUS the SON of GOD. HE referenced Sodom and/or Gomorrah several times. Matthew 10: 15 (NIV) “Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.”]—and also the vegetation in the land. But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.
Early the next morning Abraham got up and returned to the place where he had stood before the Lord. He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah, toward all the land of the plain, and he saw dense smoke rising from the land, like smoke from a furnace.
So when God destroyed the cities of the plain, he remembered Abraham, and he [GOD] brought Lot out of the catastrophe that overthrew the cities where Lot had lived.”
This is also why homosexual radicals attack Christians who speak out against homosexual behavior. Christians who know the Bible know that homosexual behavior is sin punishable by spiritual death. There is NO “right” to homosexual behavior and people are NOT born homosexual. Homosexual behavior is learned behavior. Therefore, people do not have to be involved in the behavior and people can repent and STOP being involved in the behavior!]
Hear the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom [the United States]; listen to the instruction of our God, you people of Gomorrah [the United States]! ‘The multitude of your sacrifices—what are they to me?’ says the Lord. ‘I have more than enough of burnt offerings, of rams and the fat of fattened animals; I have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats. When you come to appear before me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of my courts? Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations—I cannot bear your worthless assemblies. Your New Moon feasts and your appointed festivals I hate with all my being. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them. When you spread out your hands in prayer, I hide my eyes from you [the present or the future for the United States?]; even when you offer many prayers, I am not listening [the present or the future for the United States?].
Your hands are full of blood [the present for the United States as we as a nation MURDER over a million babies a year through government sanctioned abortions!]!
Wash and make yourselves clean [Will we?]. Take your evil deeds out of my sight [Will we?]; stop doing wrong [Will we?]. Learn to do right [Will we?]; seek justice [Will we?]. Defend the oppressed [Will we? Who are more oppressed than murdered babies?]. Take up the cause of the fatherless [Will we? GOD’S family structure not man’s]; plead the case of the widow [Will we? GOD’S family structure not man’s].’
‘Come now, let us settle the matter,’ says the Lord. ‘Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. If you are willing and obedient [Stop rebelling], you will eat the good things of the land; but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword.’ For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.
See how the faithful city has become a prostitute! She once was full of justice; righteousness used to dwell in her—but now murderers! Your silver has become dross, your choice wine is diluted with water. Your rulers are rebels, partners with thieves; they all love bribes and chase after gifts. They do not defend the cause of the fatherless; the widow’s case does not come before them.
Therefore the Lord, the Lord Almighty, the Mighty One of Israel, declares: ‘Ah! I will vent my wrath on my foes and avenge myself on my enemies. I will turn my hand against you; I will thoroughly purge away your dross and remove all your impurities. I will restore your leaders as in days of old, your rulers as at the beginning. Afterward you will be called the City of Righteousness, the Faithful City.’
Zion will be delivered with justice, her penitent ones with righteousness. But rebels and sinners will both be broken, and those who forsake the Lord will perish. ‘You will be ashamed because of the sacred oaks in which you have delighted; you will be disgraced because of the gardens that you have chosen. You will be like an oak with fading leaves, like a garden without water. The mighty man will become tinder and his work a spark; both will burn together, with no one to quench the fire.’”

Boycott Target UPDATE:
The purpose of the Target boycott is to help Target change its current policy of allowing men into the facilities of women and allowing women into the facilities of men by hurting its bottom line. A classic “follow the money” approach. Is it working? Your decision:

“Jeanne Ives Targets Illinois ‘Sanctuary State’ Law in Republican Primary
Warner Todd Huston | February 11, 2018
Illinois State Representative Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton) has launched a biting new ad against incumbent [Leftist] Republican Bruce Rauner that brings the ‘sanctuary state’ issue to the fore in the Republican primary [The whole concept of a sanctuary State is in direct violation of the United States Constitution. Article VI Section 2 of the United States Constitution: “This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.”].
In 2017, Rauner signed a law that essentially made Illinois a sanctuary state. Conservatives warned that it marked the ‘beginning of the end’ of his administration [Then he signed a bill to FORCE taxpayers to pay for the murder of babies within the womb and another bill to allow fraudulent birth certificates, which are legal documents, for delusional men and women allowing them to change their sex on the certificates. As if the sex of a person can actually be changed after birth.].
Now, Rauner’s signature on that bill is coming back to haunt him.
Ives’s new TV ad focuses on the murder of Denny McCann, who was run down by an illegal alien in June of 2011.
The ad introduces the victim’s brother, Brian McCann, who recalls that Denny was run down by an illegal alien named Saul Chavez, who was driving drunk. Denny was dragged for nearly a city block and died a violent death, Brian says.
Unfortunately, Saul Chavez absconded back to Mexico and escaped punishment for murdering McCann.
The Ives campaign points out that the prosecution of Chavez ‘didn’t happen in the sanctuary county of Cook.’
‘And, thanks to Governor Bruce Rauner, it now won’t happen in the sanctuary state of Illinois,’ the campaign said in a Friday press release.
‘Rauner stands with illegal immigrant [Poor choice of words. Should have said alien not immigrant. Why do conservatives continue to use Leftist inappropriate and misleading vocabulary?] criminals,’ Ives said in the press release. ‘McCann stands with Jeanne Ives because she stands for the rule of law and with the families of victims like the McCanns.’
The Rauner camp disputes the claim that his signature on the 2017 ‘Illinois Trust Act” makes the state a sanctuary state, because it does not in all cases completely forbid police departments from working with federal authorities on the detention and deportation of illegal aliens. Local police departments will still be allowed to cooperate with federal authorities when a federal judge has issued an arrest warrant [How kind of them.].
‘Illinois has been welcoming of immigrants [Illegal aliens ARE NOT immigrants. People who enter the country legally under the laws of the country are immigrants. Individuals who enter the country illegally are by definition NOT immigrants. They do not have the approval of the host country. They are NOT undocumented immigrants. Would anyone, other than Leftists, refer to a bank robber as an undocumented customer?] for a long time, and this bill will continue that tradition,’ Rauner said in a statement issued last August when he signed the bill into law. ‘It also makes clear that stopping violent crime will be law enforcement’s mission rather than working on federal prerogatives that a federal court has found illegal [A Leftist federal court. Leftist federal courts have been unconstitutionally rewriting the Constitution by unconstitutional decisions for a very long time.].’
However, the bill prohibits law enforcement from arresting an illegal alien based solely on his or her violation of immigration laws [Which are federal laws which then go back to Article VI Section 2.]. It also prevents local officials from alerting federal authorities when an illegal alien has been detained and prevents law enforcement officials from even inquiring if a suspect has legal status. The bill essentially makes Illinois a sanctuary for illegals except in the case of the issuance of a federal warrant.
Federal officials also criticized the law.
‘As the Attorney General [of the United States] has said, when cities and states refuse to help enforce immigration laws, our nation is less safe,’ DOJ [Department of Justice] spokesman Devin O’Malley told Fox News last year. ‘Failure to deport aliens who are convicted for criminal offenses puts whole communities at risk—especially immigrant communities in the very sanctuary jurisdictions that seek to protect the perpetrators.’
Governor Rauner also touted the bill as ‘bipartisan [One of the Left’s distorted concepts. If one Republican supports the bill, it becomes a bipartisan bill when a Leftist bill is passed.]’ when he signed it into law. However, only six of the state’s Republicans crossed the aisle to support the bill, and many of those six were already retiring from their offices [Which means they could not be voted out at the next election. This is also a common practice. Those who are retiring or not running again feel free to vote against those who originally elected them to office.].
Indeed, a group of six Republicans launched a counter-bill to repeal the governor’s law after it was signed [Since Republicans are the minority in both Houses of the General Assembly, it would not pass.].
On Sunday, the Ives campaign released an extended version of the ad online, in which Bruce McCann says: ‘Governor Rauner should not remain in office.’

“GOP Candidates for Attorney General: Gary Grasso and Erika Harold
John Biver and Dave Smith
In a previous article, we covered the crowded Democratic Party primary for Illinois Attorney General, so now we turn to the two-way race for Republicans.
As with the Democrats, the Republicans are talking a lot about using the office to combat corruption—something the 4-term incumbent Lisa Madigan has been roundly criticized for failing to do. As noted previously, the fact that her father is Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan is often seen as the reason for that seeming lack of effort.
Here are the brief bios of the two Republican Party candidates for Illinois Attorney General:
Gary Grasso:
1) Georgetown University Undergraduate, Fordham University School of Law
2) Occupation Litigation Attorney, founder and owner of Grasso Bass, P.C.
3) Former Member of the DuPage County Board and former Burr Ridge Mayor
4) Chairman of the DuPage 911 Board
5) Campaign website: GaryGrasso.com
Erika Harold:
1) University of Illinois Undergraduate, Harvard Law School
2) Attorney at Meyer Capel, P.C.
3) Commissioner on the Illinois Supreme Court Commission of Professionalism
4) Serves on the Illinois Supreme Court Committee on Equality
5) Campaign website: erikaharold.com
State statute outlines fifteen duties of the Attorney General—you can find them here. Examples are:
1) To appear for and represent the people of the State before the supreme court in all cases in which the State or the people of the State are interested.
2) To defend all actions and proceedings against any State officer, in his official capacity, in any of the courts of this State or the United States.
3) To consult with and advise the governor and other State officers, and give, when requested, written opinions upon all legal or constitutional questions relating to the duties of such officers respectively.
As important as they might be, most of the fifteen are fodder for eyes to glaze over. Since this is Illinois, one of the hottest questions in every AG’s race is, if elected, what will the candidates do to fight corruption.
The Chicago Sun-Times asked, ‘What would you do as attorney general to identify and combat public corruption at the state, county and local levels?’
Erika Harold answered:
‘I would use the Office’s express statutory authority—whether it is through the State Officials and Employees Ethics Act, the Freedom of Information Act or the Attorney General Act—to investigate and combat government corruption.’
In addition, she would ‘help draft legislation that would strengthen Illinois’ public corruption laws’ and ‘expand the Illinois Attorney General’s tools (such as subpoena and grand jury powers) to investigate and prosecute government corruption.’
Gary Grasso agreed that the AG’s powers should be expanded and promised to ‘focus the Attorney General’s office and repurpose its resources on public corruption and those in the private sector that facilitate it.’ He referred to ‘the unfettered proliferation of corruption in Illinois,’ and cited the need to ‘investigate the clout based, corrupt property tax assessments system’:
‘We must restore confidence to the people of Illinois that they are being treated equally and fairly when property taxes are being assessed. We must not tolerate the status quo and the political corruption at any level. The public should know that when elected, the powers that be, at all levels of government, should be on high alert that the Office of the Illinois Attorney General will not tolerate any form of cheating the system.’
One of the largest differences between Harold and Grasso is age and experience. Harold graduated from law school just a decade ago, and Grasso posted this on his website:
‘Gary is the only candidate with the extensive public service and the right legal experience necessary to eradicate the clout-plagued epidemic that systemically infects government in Illinois.’
His website also touts his ‘39 years of litigation as both plaintiff and defendants at three well known and regarded Chicago law firms at which I was a partner at each one.’ Grasso told the Chicago Tribune:
‘My actual lengthy litigation and legal experience, and my actual governance experience with proven results, respectfully distinguishes me from my opponent at every level and dimension.’
Grasso also stressed his independence, ‘I am not beholden to any candidate for Governor, politician, interest group or organization.’
‘I am the only independent Republican candidate for Attorney General. My campaign has not been welcomed by GOP party insiders, including Governor Rauner. His administration and staff are supporting my opponent and actively tried to kick me off the ballot—and deny choice to Republicans and independent voters.’
After doing research and speaking personally to both candidates, we highly recommend voting for Gary Grasso. His legal experience, independence and willingness to engage with conservative grassroots activists speaks volumes.
Unfortunately, Harold has avoided publicly answering questions from conservative organizations, including failing to respond to candidate surveys from pro-life organizations in the state. It is frustrating to observe her answer questions from liberal media sources but refuse to answer questions (and questionnaires) from pro-life and pro-family groups.
Their differences were dramatically different when they were asked about defending unconstitutional and tyrannical Illinois laws that force medical professionals to give abortion [murder of babies within the womb] referrals (SB [Senate Bill] 1564) or ban professional therapists from helping minor children with unwanted same-sex attraction or gender confusion (HB [House Bill] 217). Even after pointing out that the next Attorney General will take an oath to defend the U.S. Constitution and Illinois State Constitution, Harold said she would defend the laws of the state whereas Grasso indicated that he did not think those laws were constitutional.
Moreover, it is troubling to read or hear her interviews in the media (WBEZ for example) and listen to her give politically correct or even liberal responses to questions. The Chicago Sun-Times reported last month that Harold ‘believes Illinois should start ‘exploring’ (marijuana) legalization.’ In the WBEZ interview, Harold waves the white flag of surrender, saying that she believes that recreational marijuana is ‘inevitable [Death is inevitable. Particular laws are not.].’
Finally, the fact that Harold has aligned herself with Bruce Rauner and his campaign apparatus is indicative of the establishment politics we’ve come to loathe in Illinois.
We simply do not need another squishy establishment type in the Illinois GOP.
Please make every effort to cast your ballot on or before March 20th to ensure that the best candidates are nominated. IFA [Illinois Family Action]-pac has a list of endorsed candidates for your consideration.
If conservatives fail to vote in any election, we enable the Left to take the reins of government, which means bigger government and less individual freedom.

The choice for Illinois Governor in the Republican Primary Election is clear. A conservative Republican who is pro-life and votes against the radical agenda of the Left including making Illinois a sanctuary State for illegal aliens. Or, a Leftist Republican In Name Only who is supported by Planned Murderhood and signed into law a radical law that allows delusional males and females to fraudulently change their birth certificates which are legal documents.

It seems that it was not only the Obama Administration that manipulated the amount of the National Debt. The day that Congress approved a new budget and increased the debt ceiling the National Debt was $20,494,637,976,880.62. The next day the National Debt increased to $20,669,079,408,408.12. An increase of almost 175 billion dollars in one day.

GOD knows the EVIL we as a nation have done and the EVIL we continue to condone. It is past time to REPENT. It is past time to ABOLISH the murder of babies within the womb. Forty-five years of murdering babies within the womb is forty-five years too long. We will ALL be held accountable for our actions and for our inactions.

“If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.”

“The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk. Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.”

We need many more conservatives in the Senate to abolish the sinful EVIL that is the murder of babies within the womb. That is why I will be concentrating on Senate elections in 2018 although also dealing with some important House races. We need to end the abomination that is the murder of babies within the womb. Every day is a day too late.
It is past time to hold federal judges accountable. Impeachment is a method provided within the Constitution to hold federal judges accountable. We need to elect Congressional candidates who are willing to expose the misdeeds of judges and are willing to hold them accountable through impeachment and conviction, if necessary.
John 3: 20 (NIV)
“Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.”
Ephesians 5: 11 (NIV)
“Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.”
Proverbs 26: 26 (NIV)
“Their malice may be concealed by deception, but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.”
We need to replace as many Establishment Republicans will conservatives as we can. We all know Mitch McConnell and his crew are going to support the Establishment Republican over a conservative. They have time after time. We last saw it in Alabama where Establishment Republicans including Mitt Romney actually helped the Leftist win the special election.
This election year, I will concentrate on federal Senate elections, selected federal House elections, and certain gubernatorial elections. Illinois will be one of those gubernatorial elections. The Illinois primary is currently underway. In the primaries, I will concentrate on the Republican candidates most often.
We need to rededicate ourselves to abolishing the murder of babies within the womb this coming year. The sooner the murder of babies within the womb is abolished, the more innocent lives that will be saved. Pray and then get actively involved in the solution. If we are not part of the solution, we are part of the problem. Words have consequences. Actions have consequences. Inaction has consequences.
Ephesians 6: 10-17 (NIV)
“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”
1) belt of truth.
2) breastplate of righteousness.
3) feet fitted gospel of peace.

“One wonders what entitles this generation to speak so confidently about past evils given its inability to recognize present ones. Modern America is awash in the blood of millions of aborted [murdered] children—a monstrous evil we’re told is as central to the modern lifestyle as slavery was to the ancient one [Make no mistake about it. Murdering one’s own children is far more evil than slavery. And yes, slavery is evil.]”
The best, most constitutional way to accomplish abolishing abortion is to do the following:
1) Congress by law affirms that human life begins at conception/fertilization.
http://nationalprolifealliance.com/rlacaa_petition.aspx?npla=EH17&pid=0820c
2) Congress by law affirms that human life is protected by both Amendments Five and Fourteen from the beginning of life at conception to the end of life through natural causes.
3) Congress by law affirms that the taking of a human life within the womb is a criminal offense and establishes the legal parameters for prosecuting and punishing all such criminal offenses. Congress by law affirms that any local official and/or State official who tries to hinder and/or does not apply these laws properly has committed a criminal offense. Congress by law establishes the legal parameters for prosecuting and punishing all such criminal offenses.
4) Congress by law affirms that any and all previous court case rulings in contradiction to these specific laws passed by Congress are null and void.
5) Congress by law removes the courts from any ability to alter and/or invalidate any provisions of these specific laws passed by Congress.
Rules of Life:
1) Actions have consequences and may have a lasting impact on the rest of your life.
2) There is no reset, undo, or edit button in life.
3) You are the ONLY person responsible for your actions.
4) You are free to choose whatever action you want to take, but you are NOT free from the consequences of that action.
5) Doing nothing is an action.
Or, as GOD said in James 4: 17 (NIV)
“If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.”
Matthew 12: 35-37 (NIV)
“‘A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned [We are all held accountable by GOD.].’”
