Call Rep. Sensennbrenner and Rep. Chabot and ask them why in 12 years the Republican Majority controlling the US House has not been able to get around to having a public hearing for the Right to Life Act, even this year (2006) when it has now over ONE HUNDRED co-sponsors !?
Then, on November 7th, after you get some form of a bogus "non-answer" from their offices, VOTE FOR A THIRD PARTY CHRISTIAN PRO-LIFE CANDIDATE ! SEND A MESSAGE TOTHE REPUBLICANS THAT CHRISTIANS AND PRO-LIFERS WILL NOT BE USED, MOCKED, AND TAKEN AS FOOLS BY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY ANY LONGER !!!
The cost to tolerating the apathy, indifference, and delay by the Republican leadership has been at least a 12 year delay in passing legislation to end the murder of children in the wombs of their mothers - at an estimated 1.3 million murdered per year.
The real victims of course are the dead children whose murder has been allowed to continue by Republican inaction.
The greatest offense from this flood of innocent bloodshed has been to God Himself, whose sanctuary is defiled by child-sacrifice, and whose Holy Name is profaned. Leviticus 20:3
Repent America ! Send a message to the Republicans on Election Day, November 7th ! Vote Third Party !Vote Write-in !
