I never thought I'd be saying this, but the New York Times agrees with me. For anyone who thought I was making unfair conclusions, even the New York Times acknowledges that the president lied and abortion would be covered by the proposed plan.

From the article:

...his assertion that “no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions” is not so clear-cut.

Existing restrictions on the use of federal money for abortion would remain in place, as Mr. Obama stated. But in practice, the public and private money would all go into the same pot, and the source of money for any single procedure is largely a technicality.

This evening, President Barack Obama addressed a joint session of Congress about the country's health care system. As everyone expected, he gave a great speech.

As you may already know, Judge Sonya Sotomayor is up for a position in the Supreme Court.  The Senate Judiciary Committee gave her a pass this week, and her nomination will be voted on by the full Senate very soon.   This is a very troubling possibility to many who believe that judges are supposed to enforce the law rather than make it.

Sotomayor has time and again, made conflicting rulings with the law.   She stated that "the court of appeals is where policy is made" in 2005.  While on the board of the PRLDEF, the Fund argued that the right to abortion is a fundamental right and the courts should strike down common sense laws like parental notification, "women's right to know" laws, and bans on taxpayer funding for abortions.

Abortion is not a fundamental right.  LIFE is.

If you believe, as I do, that abortion is the civil rights issue of the 21st century, then please, call or e-mail your senators now and tell them how horrible of a decision it would be to appoint Sonya Sotomayor to the Supreme Court.

To find your Senators' contact information, you can refer to this website:

Calling would be best, but anything will help.

This website makes it very easy to e-mail your senators:

Millions of defenseless unborn are depending on your action right now.
