Abortion; Its Just a Product of Deception

Linkfest Haven, the Blogger's Oasis

Those who justify the murder of unborn children have a number of things they refer to the unborn child as so as to dehumanize the murder. Fetus (which is technically correct), product of conception, and glob of cells are just some of the things words people use to justify the barbaric act of abortion. Unless, of course, a pregnant woman is murdered. Then she and her unborn child were victims of the murder. I guess under the woman’s right to choose, if she chooses to abort it is a product of conception and if she chooses to have it, it is an unborn child. While there are still many people who believe it is OK to abort right up until seconds before birth (partial birth abortion), a lot of abortion advocates think that it is OK if the [fill in euphemism here] can not survive outside the womb. This is ridiculous because the whole process is designed so that the child is dependant on the mother to grow and be born. In any event, there is a child who survived being born earlier than any other.

A premature baby that doctors say spent less time in the womb than any other surviving infant is to be released from a Florida hospital Tuesday.
Amillia Sonja Taylor was just 9 1/2 inches long and weighed less than 10 ounces when she was born Oct. 24. She was delivered 21 weeks and six days after conception. Full-term births come after 37 to 40 weeks.

“We weren’t too optimistic,” Dr. William Smalling said Monday. “But she proved us all wrong.”

Neonatologists who cared for Amillia say she is the first baby known to survive after a gestation period of fewer than 23 weeks. A database run by the University of Iowa’s Department of Pediatrics lists seven babies born at 23 weeks between 1994 and 2003.

Amillia has experienced respiratory problems, a very mild brain hemorrhage and some digestive problems, but none of the health concerns are expected to pose long-term problems, her doctors said. Breitbart

This little girl seems to be more than a product of conception or a glob of cells and she sure looks very much like a human being. Maybe her birth will shed light on those who think it is OK to murder the unborn.

No Woman Should Be President

Men have always been president and that should not change. There is no reason that a woman should be president regardless of what the Constitution says about the subject. The fact that a person is a woman automatically, despite any other qualifications, disqualifies her from becoming the president.

That sounds absolutely ridiculous because the sex of a person has no bearing whatsoever on ability to do the job. So why is a person’s religion such a problem? Except for the so called peaceful religion of Islam, the religion of a candidate should not matter. The fact that Islam requires people to convert or be killed eliminates that religion from consideration. No other religion requires conversion so why is it that people consider this when evaluating a candidate.

I have not made up my mind as to whom I would like to support in the next election. I have ruled out several candidates but it is way too early for me to get behind one person or another but I will say this, unless the person is a Muslim (a follower of the religion of peace), I do not care what religion that person practices. Mitt Romney is catching hell because he is a Mormon. Who really cares if he is a Mormon, Jew, Catholic, Protestant or any other religion (except, as stated, the followers of the child molester).

Perhaps folks can stop focusing on things like sex or religion and actually concentrate on things that matter.

Al Gore Will Say This is a Lie

Linkfest Haven, the Blogger's Oasis

There is an Inconvenient Truth out there for Al Gore and all the other tree hugging environmentalists who believe that the Global Warming debate has been settled and talk about the theory as if it is proven fact. An interesting article appeared today and the environmental wackos are not going to like it:

A new report on climate over the world’s southernmost continent shows that temperatures during the late 20th century did not climb as had been predicted by many global climate models.

This comes soon after the latest report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that strongly supports the conclusion that the Earth’s climate as a whole is warming, largely due to human activity.

It also follows a similar finding from last summer by the same research group that showed no increase in precipitation over Antarctica in the last 50 years. Most models predict that both precipitation and temperature will increase over Antarctica with a warming of the planet. EurekAlert

Be sure to read the rest of the story, it will “warm you all over.”

Congressional Genitals in the News

A former Republican Congressman was issued a citation for exposing his genitals to two women at a Florida beach resort. Joseph M. McDade who is 75 was charged with a crime that carries a $1000 fine and up to a year in jail.

In other news, Congressman Keith Ellison of Minnesota demonstrated that he has no genitals when he called the police on Congressman Tom Tancredo for smoking a cigar in his office. While I do not agree with the rules, members of Congress are allowed to smoke in their offices. To me, that rule is another example of how they make rules that apply to everyone else but them. No other Federal employees are allowed to smoke in their offices. Regardless, this is allowed so there should be no problem with it.

That is until Keith Ellison, who occupies an office next to Tancredo, decided he did not like the smell of the cigar smoke. Instead of being a man and walking next door or picking up the phone and calling Tancredo, one of his staffers called the Capitol Police. The officer made it clear he did not want to be there but was obligated to investigate the call. He informed Ellison’s office that Tancredo was allowed to smoke in his office but had to investigate it nonetheless. Ellison should have acted like a man but instead chose to show the world he has no balls.

So here we have this freshman Congressman who is a Muslim crying about the smoke smell. I do not know if this is based on the smell, his religious convictions, or both but the fact is, members are allowed to smoke and there really is nothing he could do about it. Nothing that is, except maybe be neighborly. I am willing to bet that if he had contacted Tancredo and told him that the smoke bothered him they could have worked something out. I imagine it will be a cold day in hell before Tancredo worries about whether or not his cigar smoke bothers Ellison.

This is typical for a Muslim. Show up and demand that people do things your way. Demand that they change things because you do not like it. I imagine the call to the police was the preemptive strike so he can have CAIR and the other terrorist supporters have a rally for him and decry how he is being treated badly because he is a Muslim. If I were Tancredo I would smoke 4 or 5 cigars a day whenever Ellison was in his office.

I have an even better idea. Once a week Tancredo should have a pork BBQ in his office with a buffet set up for his staff. They could have pork ribs, pork BBQ, pork chops, pork rinds, and anything else they can think of. That smell wafting through the place should drive Ellison absolutely nuts. Before long he will declare a full scale jihad against Tancredo.

Perhaps they could use a Koran to set the hot plates on.

Message from the Father of a Haditha Marine

Linkfest Haven, the Blogger's Oasis

I have been following the travesty that has gone on with regard to the Marines who were doing their jobs in Haditha and were betrayed by our government. The following is from a post at Conservative Thoughts. It is from the father of one of those brave warfighters. I want you to pay attention and ask how our government could do this to our warfighters while treating the terrorists like visiting dignitaries.

Justin Sharratt- My Son

by Darryl Sharratt

I am the father of L/Cpl Justin Sharratt. On August 16th, 2003 the dreams of a little boy became reality. My son Justin enlisted in the United States Marine Corps after high school graduation. Since the age of six, Justin dreamed of a military career. The combat boots, camouflage fatigues and helmet he wore as a child would soon become his uniform of the day as a United States Marine. To serve and protect the United States of America from all enemies both domestic and foreign; a duty he did not take lightly.

Justin’s first combat tour of duty was the city of Fallujah, Iraq. It was here, in the heat of the Iraqi desert, a boy became a man. Sharratt, Stone, Mitchell, Stevens and Wolf soon became ‘brothers by different mothers.’ In a battle known as “Hell House” they fought toe to toe with Iraqi insurgents bent on the destruction of U. S. Marines. They formed a bond forged in the furnace of combat; a bond that will last a lifetime. Semper Fidelis.

Upon his return from Iraq Justin joined us while on leave. He was transformed into the man all fathers dream and hope they will be. While on leave, Justin broke his ankle and was put on medical leave. It was at this time I realized what it meant to him to be an infantry rifleman, a grunt. He stared me in the eyes and said “Dad, all I want to do is get my ankle healed. I have to return to Iraq with 3-1 Kilo Company. The guys are counting on me to cover their six and I will never let them down.” Discussion ended—my son the warrior.

The city of Haditha, Iraq was the destination of 3-1 Kilo Company on Justin’s second deployment. Known to be a hot bed of Iraqi insurgency, the Marines of 3-1 Kilo Company could only envision what to expect. Seasoned from their tour in Fallujah, most of the Marines were on their second Operation Iraqi Freedom deployment, many their third. They were experienced combat veterans, drilled on the Rules of Engagement yet sensitive to their alien environment and the Iraqi populace.

On November 19, 2005, a convoy of four Marine humvees was ambushed on a city street in Haditha. A massive IED explosion ripped the fourth humvee in the column apart. One Marine was killed and two were seriously wounded. 3rd platoon, 3-1 Kilo Company, my son’s unit, was now in a firefight for their lives. There was no time for rage or revenge. Justin needed to apply his Marine Corps training and experience to preserve the lives of his fellow Marines. All the Marines in 3rd platoon responded in like manner- to preserve the lives of fellow Marines. Reinforcements were called in and an ambulance was needed to attend the wounded. Marines were positioned to defend their precarious position and a comm link was established to FOB Sparta. All done in the best of Marine Corps tradition and training while taking enemy fire.

In the aftermath of this engagement, 24 Iraqis were killed. A U.S. Congressman has called these Marines murderers. Time magazine has enlisted the propaganda of foreign journalists to sell its political agenda. Iraqi civilians have been schooled in making false statements. An Iraqi girl missed a day of school because she was afraid the bomb blast would injure her. Interesting reading, but I truly believe the American people can see through this barrage of media conjecture. I ask you not to prejudge my son, not to prejudge these Marines. They have served this country with honor, truth and diligence. I say unto you. the Few, the Proud, the Marines………..

War is a tragic thing. The enemy we are fighting has had centuries to prepare. They wear no uniforms, fight by no Rules of Engagement or follow the Geneva Convention. Using civilians as human shields is a common practice and their hatred for non-Islamic cultures is endemic.

The United States government has taken 12 months and spent millions of dollars and countless man-hours investigating the Haditha engagement. On December 21st, 2006, four NCOs and four officers were charged with violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. My son, LCpl Justin Sharratt faces three counts of unpremeditated murder. This is not the forum to discuss these charges but my son stands strong in the fact he followed the Rules of Engagement, protected his fellow Marines and did nothing wrong. All of these men are innocent of these charges. In the aftermath of 9-11, these men have risen to honorably serve their country. Some have given a lifetime of dedicated service, others were just beginning. They have demonstrated to the world there is “No better friend, No worse enemy” than a U.S. Marine.

For now, the handshakes will be tighter, the hugs will be longer and the tears sliding down my face are not a sign of weakness- they affirm a father’s love for his Marine son.

My friends, Jack Murtha and other slime balls have prejudged these brave warriors. These men were fighting a ruthless enemy who was hell bent on killing them. Int he process some civilians died. That does not mean we need to persecute our warriors. They did nothing wrong. The American people need these kind of men standing ready to do violence on our behalf so that we may sleep in peace at night. What kind of world do we live in where a slime ball like Jack Murtha tries to take a bribe and escapes jail and these brave men are facing jail for doing their jobs. Insult to injury is that the slime ball Murtha called these men murderers.

God bless these Marines and the thousands more like them who stand ready at the gates of hell to keep Satan from entering our lives.
