Obama: Why Government Shouldn't Fund Abortion

Drake Gordon writes:

Barack Obama Got in Because of Catholics.

The whole reason he got into office is because alot of Catholics ( well your not Catholic if you voted for this ONE) voted for him. They voted for him because they are losing there faith in God and being manipulated by Satan. The majority of Spanish Catholics voted for him for reason;s that are moronic. Abortion and Gay Marriage will end this world and you have Spanish Catholics voting for him. As you can see his approval ratings are worse then Bushes at this time he was in office. Bush was not the best but in the last 8 years how was life for you? How did it make you feel when Bush ( who is not even catholic) was trying to bring back the foundation of this country. Bush did a great job and Colon Powell is pretending to be on Baracks side because he didn't run for office first. McCain would of done a lot better.

All I can say Drake is you've got to be a comedian! Or you lived on another planet for Bush's 8 years! I remember: Bush's selection by the Supreme Court overstepping the boundaries the Court has according to the Constitution thus destroying it, 9/11 on bush's watch, $4/gallon gas, Wall Street collapse, $750 billion of taxpayer money to greedy pals on Wall Street, Disastrous Invasion of the Sovereign Nation of Iraq that had no WMD's that also led to the rise of Iran, Abu Graib concentration camp along with other Black Sites used to torture and murder innocent Iraqi's and others including women and children, Katrina disaster and unprepared gov't response ("great job Brownie?,) Lied to Congress and the American people in address to Congress saying things like a "mushroom cloud" coming to the US from Iraq, planting phoney stories in the New York Times about Iraq, Iraq had "yellow cake" and plutonium, etc, etc,. Ring a bell???

I have read many things on Padre Pio, would like to know what book you are referring to.

Abortion, my friends, is a voiding out of what might have been, and a cruel rejection of a tender, loving being sent with great meaning and purpose, not to dispirit you, but to enliven, bless, and delight you. But I would like to take the abortion debate to a whole new level. I have told you stories before about the great saint, Padre Pio, who just passed away in 1968, recent in the history of saints. So we have much documentation on him. Not only did he make vehement statements saying that abortion is murder, as well as a failure of love, and a rejection of Christ, but he also insisted that people repent of this sin. THAT is the saving grace, as it were. Once a soul repented of abortion, Padre Pio was happy. Abortion is a serious sin.

That said, it is little known even by people who know of Padre Pio that he also told one local woman, Maria Mandato, "Maria, you have to have another child." (I am quoting from Mrs. Mandato's daughter's book.) Maria responded, "Padre, I have already had seven and now I am 38 years old." The writer continued, "When she admitted to no longer having full union with my father, he corrected her and advised her that they both needed to fulfill their marital obligations. In 1943, my mother gave birth to a boy whom they named Pio Francesco. Padre Pio was delighted, especially when parents named their children after him." Page 34, Padre Pio: Encounters with a Spiritual Daughter from Pietrelcina.

But the upshot of it is that this child became a priest in the same monastery where Padre Pio lived out his ministry. This story always makes me smile. And it says a great deal about "when life begins". HAH!~ LIFE IS! Before ever it is conceived. Interesting, eh? How can anyone read this story and continue to support abortion? I would be afraid to continue on that path after reading this story. Life on this earth is so short compared to the one to come. AHEN!

We have something worse than the holocaust going on in our very own country as millions of innocent, defenseless unborn children are ripped from their mother's wombs and discarded like trash. One half of the population of this country has completely lost its mind. I'm sure there were many Germans during WWII who also cowardly defended the status quo as the Nazis mercilessly exterminated millions of innocent Jews.
