Brief Thoughts on Pro-Life and the Elections
-This sound defeat should be a wake up call to the Democratic Party. Listen up Democrats, exit polls (though somewhat faulty) revealed that a HUGE number of people were voting yesterday with moral issues (to a large extent abortion, I suspect) as the foremost concern in their minds when choosing who to vote for. It's time to quit your NARAL Pro-Choice Fundamentalism and start giving some space within the party to people like Kristen Day and her Democrats for Life. That is, if you do like getting elected.-Republicans need to understand that many of us voted for them largely on pro-life grounds. Come the next elections, we want to see that some significant action has been taken towards stopping the abortion holocaust. That doesn't just mean legislation restricting abortion, that means help for women in need of all kinds of support. I recommend that everyone who voted with pro-life concerns in mind, write letters to Republicans in the White House, the Senate and the House making it clear that we demand meaningful action in this respect and that their jobs depend on it.
-Those who would have voted for Democrats if they were pro-life should also write letters to them making it clear why it is that they didn't get your vote, thus losing one of the most important elections of the past decades.
-To those who fight for the right to life: There is yet a long and dangerous road ahead, but remeber that faith, hope and love endure forever. Not to mention truth and reason.
