Please Support Missy Smith's Ads!

The pro-abortion and abortion-apathetic establishment in the DC area (and the nation) are shocked - just shocked, I tell you! - that the results of their advocacy are being displayed for all the world to see.  For the tiniest microcosm of the reactions, go to my earlier post and read the comments, and do the same for Jill Stanek's posts.  Clearly they don't want their consciences stung, but it's only the guilty conscience that can be stung.  Is the populace at large uncomfortable and even grieved?  It should be.  Remember, though, it's not the discomfort or grief that's the problem; it's the underlying evil of abortion that must be eradicated.  For that to happen, there must be deep-seated repentance on the part of many - including the politician who passes abortion-permissive laws, the bishops and priests who refuse to obey Canon 915, right on down to the "ordinary citizen" who won't be bothered to give a damn about the murders occurring at the abortuary less than a mile from his/her home.

There is mass media coverage being given to these ads.  The Washington Times did a piece on Missy.  It also disclosed the abysmal treatment that she is receiving from the DC Republican Party.  Paul Craney, the executive director of the DC GOP, went so far as to ask Missy not to run for that seat.  Mind you, there never was another Republican bucking for that nomination.  He'd rather have no one run than have to face that elephant in his living room.  He admitted so much when he said, and I quote from the Times article, that abortion "is an issue we have skirted because it needs a well-thought-out plan."  (Correction: this "skirted" quote came from Tim Day, one of the GOP candidates for City Council)  "Well-thought-out plan" my arse!  Talk about a lame cop-out!   Mr. Day, Craney et al, it's called the GOP party platform!  Have you read it?  Do you adhere to it?  The answer to that second question is obviously a big, fat "NO".  He has lots of company - the Montgomery County GOP chairman likewise doesn't adhere to the platform - per a public confrontation that I had with him in spring of 2009, but I digress!  Needless to say, people like Craney and the rest of the GOP establishment are why there's a Tea Party movement.

These ads will continue to run through Election Day.  They do cost money.  Please go to her campaign site http://www.missysmith2010.com/ to contribute any sum of money that you can.  Thank you.

RINOs Making Betrayal Noises in Kagan Matter

Please read this Lifenews article and take note of these Republican senators who are either: 1) pro-abortion themselves or 2) suffering from lack of backbone.  Then plan to retire these folks asap.  I don't know when they're up, but there's a 60% chance that they're either up in 2010 or 2012.

Some Reactions to Scott Brown's Upset Victory

Ladies and gentlemen, thanks to secret agents and their concealed recording equipment, we have caught some very candid shots of the reactions of the Puppet-String Pullers of the Democrats.  Observe...



Yep!  They're in a tizzy!

Seriously, though, there are things to be considered.  Firstly, it is no secret that Scott Brown's "pro-life credentials" are non-existent.  While I rejoice at the election turnout, I'm more happy that Coakley lost than I'm happy that Brown won.  However, in order for the first to have happened, the second had to happen; let's not lose sight of that.

Folks, if this sort of thing can happen in liberal Massachusetts, it can certainly happen in more conservative areas of the country - and the leftists know this!  We need to keep up the momentum in all facets of pro-life activisim.  Too often pro-lifers have won a battle, then wrongly assumed that the war was won, returning to their isolated and oblivious existences.  No one can any longer allow themselves that luxury.  As a matter of fact, such apathy was never a morally valid attitude to take, as "the price of liberty is eternal vigilance".

What I say now is my opinion and may be controversial, but I believe it to be true.  We as Christians must understand that we have nothing in common with socialists and humanists.  Their whole mental and spiritual paradigm is atheistic (just go to their own websites if there's any doubt).  That means that the Catholic Church must stop trying to seek this mythical "common ground" with these folks (USCCB, are you reading this?).

We must also cease considering ourselves inextribly wed to the Republican Party.  There is nothing whatsoever wrong with the notion of a "third party" (by the way - I believe the Republican Party itself started as a "third party").  Evangelium Vitae teaches that we must vote for the candidate that is in the closest alignment with the Church.  Now when both candidates are pro-abortion (as in yesterday's MA race) we look to other factors; clearly sitting this race out would not have been a morally acceptable option.  Again, we must look at the facts and circumstances of each situation.

We've got our work cut out for us.  However, we now have a little more leverage, thanks be to God.
