The Pro-life Movement is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Republican Party

I have always maintain and continue to do so, that the Pro-life movement is simply about the Republican Party and not about life issues. Here's a post on Amy Welborn's site. Basically, the sham connundrum is whether to support Santorum, Republican or Casey Jr, Democrat in the upcoming PA Senate race.

I wish the Pro-life movement would come clean, they're really about putting Republicans in power, not about "life" issues. When a Pro-choice Democrats runs, s/he is the Devil incarnate. When it is a "Pro-life" Democrat, s/he is Judas Iscariot.

Let me predict what'll happen, conservative Catholics will pretend to "objectively" consider the pros and cons of either candidate, but at the end of the day, "Oh, we'll just stick with our Party." The truth is that it is not about life issues but about Party platform.

So, if you want smart, effective, effecient and compassionate government, you pick the Democrats.

If you want hypocrites, liars, fiscally irresponsible stewards, the destruction of social security, unfunding of education, tax cuts for the wealthy, increased environmental polution, increased poverty, evaporating health insurance coverage, economic mismanagement, and a legacy of torture, unjust wars, emasculated international cooperation that will distabilize the world, then you are ripe for the Republican Party.

As Joshua said, "Choose ye this day, whom ye shall serve, as for me and my house, we shall serve the Lord [who is a Democrat]."
