thoughts on the tiller murder…

catholicinfilmschool on Jun 9th 2009 11:25 pm

I was at the Thread Show when it happened and was so busy with being unconscious and all I haven’t had the time to mention it…but there’s a couple of things I’d like to say publicly.

I absolutely condemn the murder of George Tiller and I hope the guilty party will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I was angry when I first heard the news, because this murder will have huge consequences for the pro-life movement, whether the killer is connected to the movement or not.

Certain individuals of a certain ideology are convinced that Christians and pro-lifers are secretly glad he’s dead. I’m not glad George Tiller is dead.  I’m certainly not surprised he’s dead, but I’m not glad either. Any person who relishes in this crime needs to reevaluate their respect for the dignity of life. Being pro-life indicates a respect and reverence for ALL human life, not matter how small, how  large, or how “bad.”

And one more thing…I wouldn’t be surprised to see George Tiller in heaven. That’s right, I wouldn’t. Our God is infinitely merciful beyond the human imagination; I don’t believe in putting God’s mercy in a box. 

That’s all folks.

Is Obama backtracking on reversing the Mexico City Policy?

In a move to downplay his pro-abortion agenda, President Barack Obama has decided to wait a little longer to reverse a Bush policy preventing taxpayer funding of abortions overseas. The Mexico City Policy prevents sending public funds to groups that perform or promote abortions in other countries.

The new president could either issue an order tomorrow or in the near future to reverse the policy or allow Congress to do it.

Obama was expected to overturn the pro-life policy on his first or second full days in office and to possibly do so today, on the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision.

However, a CBN News report indicates Obama will not overturn the policy on a day that pro-life advocates mourn the Supreme Court allowing virtually unlimited abortions. Source

In other news, Mike Pence is allegedly introducing a bill to slash federal funding of Planned Parenthood. About time! This is some pretty sweet news all around on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.

Sarah Palin has officially been upgraded to being an official Modestia Chick.

I have to be honest and say I have been a little doubtful about her performance these past few weeks, but after tonight I think the ‘Cuda is officially back.

And while I hate attack ads, check this one out, it’s hilarious.

If you don’t understand the current American economic meltdown or why there is a movement to “kill the [bailout] bill,” this is an excellent video that explains what in the hot, crispy heck is going on:
