Thirty-two years ago today, the U.S. Supreme Court held that women have a right to privacy to kill their unborn children:
This right of privacy, whether it be founded in the Fourteenth Amendment’s concept of personal liberty and restrictions upon state action, as we feel it is, or, as the District Court determined, in the Ninth Amendment’s reservation of rights to the people, is broad enough to encompass a woman’s decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy.
Since the ruling, over 43 million unborn babies have been murdered in the womb.

Few people put illegal immigration and abortion together, but when you consider that close to half of those 43 million aborted children would be workforce age today, the argument for illegal immigrants filling the jobs we would not take goes away. Those 21 million or so job-age Americans aborted would instead be filling those positions today and the whole issue of giving illegals a pass because we need them to work the jobs Americans will not work would be moot; Americans WOULD be working those jobs and there would be no incentive for illegals to be streaming in.
No one ever makes this connection. This is how one evil leads to an unintended second evil.
That and 1.3 Billion performed worldwide.

“Now for the first time, we have the technology to see abortion from the victims vantage point.
Ultrasound imaging has allowed us to see this.”
-Dr. Bernard Nathanson
Dr. Nathanson had performed over 70K abortions, before he had the bright idea to use technology to videotape the baby while performing an abortion.
That videotape pricked his conscience and forced him to hang up his tools of death and to speak out against this murder for profit, much to the horror of NARAL and other pro-child murderers who would have you believe that abortion is sexy, yes sexy!!
“I remember laughing when we made those slogans up,” recalls Bernard Nathanson, M.D., co-founder of pro-abortion group NARAL, reminiscing about the early days of the pro-abortion movement in the late ’60s and early ’70s.
“We were looking for some sexy, catchy slogans to capture public opinion. They were very cynical slogans then, just as all of these slogans today are very, very cynical.”

INDEED
I blogged about it today. This is always a touchy subject for me, having been an unplanned child myself.
Hi LaShawn, I attempted to send you a track back ping via Haloscan but it was not successful. Just wanted to let you know I did refer to this post in one of my own on Monday.
blessings,
Feeble
