This is exactly why I'm pro-life

Not because of any religious affiliation. I've never gone to church and while I think there is a God, or at least some higher power, I don't exactly worship anyone or anything. I'm pro-life because I think it is cruel. Especially when I hear stories like this.

The mother, pregnant for the first time, had opted for an abortion after prenatal scans suggested that her baby was disabled

However, the infant survived the procedure, carried out on Saturday in the Rossano Calabro hospital, and was left by doctors to die.

He was discovered alive the following day – some 20 hours after the operation – by Father Antonio Martello, the hospital chaplain, who had gone to pray beside his body.

He found that the baby, wrapped in a sheet with his umbilical cord still attached, was moving and breathing.

The priest raised the alarm and doctors immediately arranged for the infant to be taken to a specialist neo-natal unit at the neighbouring Cosenza hospital, where he died on Monday morning.

Italian police are investigating the case for "homicide" because infanticide is illegal in Italy.

The law means that doctors have had an obligation to try to preserve the life of the child once he had survived the abortion.

I know the Feminazi's will say this is no big deal and abortion of demand is all that matters. But how can any sane person say this isn't cruel?

Imagine if a Republican...

Obama said he is counting on the young, blacks, latinos and women for votes in November. I guess us white males mean nothing to him. Now imagine if Bush said I'm counting on you white males to get me elected. Totally ignoring another race or all other races. The racism cry would never end.

But Obama is basically saying he doesn't care about white males and no one bats an eye. Of course this is nothing new with the liberal media. Supreme Justice Sotomayor made a racist comment that she can make better decisions because she is a wise latino and no one in the media cared. But of course if Justice Roberts would have said he can make better decisions because he is a white male that would have automatically disqualified him from service.

Obama will never raise taxes on those of us making less than $250,000

What a load of crap. What does he think a Value Added Tax would be? It would raise the tax of everyone, including the poor. So if he was honest, which we all know he isn't, VAT wouldn't still be on the table.

President Barack Obama suggested Wednesday that a new value-added tax on Americans is still on the table, seeming to show more openness to the idea than his aides have expressed in recent days.

Before deciding what revenue options are best for dealing with the deficit and the economy, Obama said in an interview with CNBC, "I want to get a better picture of what our options are."

After Obama adviser Paul Volcker recently raised the prospect of a value-added tax, or VAT, the Senate voted 85-13 last week for a nonbinding "sense of the Senate" resolution that calls the such a tax "a massive tax increase that will cripple families on fixed income and only further push back America's economic recovery."

Obama is trying everything he can do to cripple the American economy and to keep everyone miserable. I really don't think Obama has ever taken a basic economics class. What does he think will happen if they enact a VAT? Prices for everything will raise. Most companies add any expense on to their product. But I think Obama knows this and wants this. He wants everyone to be equally miserable...it's the socialist way.

Real leadership the GOP can believe in

I really hope Chris Christie puts his hat in the 2012 Presidential election. I've said this a few times and I'll keep on repeating myself. This is the kind of leadership we need.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said voters next week should reject school budgets in districts where teachers refuse to accept pay freezes.

Employees in 11 of 588 school districts have so far agreed to accept no increase in wages, Christie, 47, told reporters today in Princeton. The governor has urged the concessions as one way to offset $820 million in education cuts in his proposed state spending plan for the fiscal year that begins July 1.

“I just don’t see how citizens should want to support a budget where teachers do not want to be a part of the shared sacrifice,” Christie said. “That’s my view on it.”

New Jersey is one of the bluest states in the Union. Not only did he urge the districts to reject the budgets they listened in an overwhelmingly margin.

New Jersey voters took a stand on school spending and property taxes Tuesday, rejecting 260 of 479 school budgets across 19 counties, according to unofficial results in statewide school elections.

In the proposed state budget he unveiled last month, Gov. Chris Christie slashed $820 million in aid to school districts and urged voters to defeat budgets if teachers in their schools did not agree to one-year wage freezes. The salvo ignited a heated debate with the state’s largest teachers union.

New Jersey, like many states and the nation, are in a financial mess. Obama is spending money like it is going out of style. Our national debt is out of control and the budgets just keep on rising. This country needs a leader like Christie who isn't afraid to cut the budget and control spending. This is a very rare trait that no liberal has and only a very few Republicans have.

This would have solved a lot of the problems

But to me this is like voter fraud. I think when you go in to vote you should at the very least have to show your id. I know the liberals think that is "racist" or some whatever ism they want to attach to a common sense idea they can't argue against. Liberals are only good for a couple things, raising taxes, growing government and calling people names they know they can't win against.

I for one don't think Obama is a Kenyan. I think he is naturally born US citizen and as such he should have no problem showing his birth certificate and so doesn't the Arizona Legislature. They just passed a bill that would require any US presidential candidates to prove they are a US citizen to be on their ballots.

The Arizona House on Monday voted for a provision that would require President Barack Obama to show his birth certificate if he hopes to be on the state's ballot when he runs for reelection.

The House voted 31-22 to add the provision to a separate bill. The measure still faces a formal vote.

It would require U.S. presidential candidates who want to appear on the ballot in Arizona to submit documents proving they meet the constitutional requirements to be president.

I can't wait to hear how racist they are. How discriminatory this is. But this doesn't effect just Obama. People on the left were questioning McCain's naturally birth citizenship because he was born in an army base in another country. But because it was an army base technically that's US soil.

Post Partisanship from Obama

Remember when Obama was running for President and everyone thought he was going to be the first post partisan President. He'd be the great uniter. I guess Obama's idea of uniting the people is by mocking them.

Obama told a fundraiser in Miami that he's cut taxes, contrary to the claims of protesters.

"You would think they'd be saying thank you," he said.

At that, many in the crowd at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts stood and yelled, "Thank you!"

Not only is he mocking the Tea Party Protesters, who are a group of ordinary citizens who want actual change in this country, he is flat out lying. What taxes have you cut Obama? It won't be long until Obama's approval rating is in the 30s.

All I have to say is Hell No

As much as I like Sarah Palin there is no way in Hell I'd support her if she ran with Mitt Romney. We've tried to run the big government Republicans before. They aren't winning candidates, especially Mitt Romney. I wouldn't mind seeing Palin running for President or Vice President in 2012 but if she thinks a winning ticket is with Mitt Romney I just lost a lot of respect for her.

Conservative superstar Sarah Palin opened the door yesterday to joining forces with Mitt Romney for a 2012 White House run - a hot ticket that has some Republicans licking their chops at the prospect of unseating President Obama.

“Sounds pretty good,” Palin declared at yesterday’s Tea Party Express rally on the Common when asked about pairing up with the former Bay State governor - giving the idea a big thumbs-up as she left the stage after her headline speech.

Last night, as Palin stopped for cannoli at Mike’s Pastry in the North End, she said she was “serious” about the idea.

Hopefully she was just being nice since she was in Boston for a Tea Party Rally.

This country is going to vote for the Constitution this November and again in 2012. Even a recent Rasmussen poll has Ron Paul in a statistical dead heat with Obama right now.

Pit maverick Republican Congressman Ron Paul against President Obama in a hypothetical 2012 election match-up, and the race is – virtually dead even.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of likely voters finds Obama with 42% support and Paul with 41% of the vote. Eleven percent (11%) prefer some other candidate, and six percent (6%) are undecided.

I'm not a huge supporter of Ron Paul for President. I think he makes a fantastic Senator and I hope his son Rand Paul gets elected to the Senate too. But this just goes to show you how the public has swayed. We don't have any more big government politicians to run our country.
