Ms. Hawkins, I believe life starts at fertilization, which is even earlier than conception (implantation of the fertilized egg in the myometrium) which means, in my belief, IUDs are a form of abortion, not contraception.
Having said that, I cannot align being anti-abortion with being pro-death-penalty, which Ralph Norman is.
So, the morally consistent position is that of the Catholic Church: anti-contraception, anti-abortion, and anti-death penalty.
Neither Congressman Norman nor U.S. Senator Graham Nordone is Catholic or an opponent of contraception.
But I think your writing “the U.S. Senate [] is not a place to learn on the job” is an anti-life position because life is learning and every job is a place to learn on the job AND to improve on the job AND improve the workplace itself.
So, voters’ work should end once they cast their ballots. Voters should continuously evolve their elected officials, whoever the election-winners are, throughout their terms of office.
Meaning no attack on your organization, I see what you count as your successes are BASICALLY about cutting off public funding for abortions, NOT promoting the moral valuing of life to the point of termination of pregnancy being unthinkable by women who can afford private abortions and woman who depend on publicly-funded abortions alike.
Finally for this comment, does your organization support breast-feeding with the same intensity as it opposes abortion? Breast-feeding gives the newborns a better chance of survival and health than formula-feeding; and it should be made available to newborns of incarcerated mothers. The babies committed no crimes to be denied mother’s milk even if the mother were a convict.
Just some constructive thoughts about always remembering the ultimate goal even in the heat of a heated political rivalry.
endometrium, not myometrium. How could I have mistyped so badly?
Correction of an important but easily-missed typo”
“voters work should NOT end once they case their ballots.”
Another unfairness to Darlene is FITS’s evocation, on his WIR today, of the teen-age beauty contestant of decades ago.
The comparison is so off-base it is cruel.
That teen-age dumb blonde had been asked why 20% of Americans can’t find the U.S. on a map of the world. Darline was asked a very specific national security question.
I would have been worried if Darline HAD AN OPINION. Not every Joe (or Jill) Schmoe needs to have an opinion on national security.
Heck! Not even every member of Congress gets full briefing on national security issues, only members who sit on select committees do.
I have more confidence in someone who admits what she does not know than in a someone spouting off sonorous opinions without sufficient underlying knowledge.
People can learn.
Darline seems to be a quick study.
I do not recall such a fuss when Sara Palin bragged about her national security “expertise” with “I can see Russia from my house.” And Palin was then running for Vice-President.
Even after the election, please review these other comments of mine, with my thanks:
All stories and comment threads and YouTube shows which mention “right-to-life” or being “pro-life” should seriously consider this comment of mine on all Micah Miller-related stories:
Don’t ever gloss over what Micah did: She took A HUMAN LIFE even if it were only her own.
Don’t ever forget what suicide is: The taking of A HUMAN LIFE not in defense of others.
If you think there is no excuse for the taking of a human life not in defense of others, then there should be no excuse for suicide.
By glorifying Micah you inadvertently but surely give excuse to the bullied of the world to consider suicide.
STOP doing that!
You are first and foremost IRREPARABLY harming YOUR OWN CHILDREN/Grandchildren for cheap clicks; and some after-the-fact lectures about the worth of their own lives will have little effect after they see how you excused and glorified a suicidant.
STOP it if you want your children free from the temptation of suicide in response to every little annoyance, every deprivation, and/or very rejection!
If you take no other warning from my later-vindicated writings throughout the years, take THIS ONE!
