Pray for change of Obama's attitude toward torturing the unborn
By Michael Gaynor
If terrorists should not be tortured, surely the unborn should not be tortured.
It is undisputed that President Obama campaigned on hope and called for change and quickly announced after his inauguration that his Administration would not tolerate torture...of terrorists.
When it comes to the unborn, however, Obama is willing to tolerate torture.
If you doubt that, please see the film, "The Silent Scream," at www.silentscream.org.

If you think abortion is NOT torture, Mr. President, please check with Erica, whose letter to the website is posted on it and reads as follows:
Dear Silent Scream Website,
I just wanted to write a quick note to say thank you. I was supposed to have an abortion today and I was up all last night researching abortions on the internet. I came upon your site and couldn't stop thinking about it. It had a profound effect on me.
I still went to the clinic and went through the blood testing and watched their video....then came the ultrasound; I begged the nurse to let me see my baby; I felt that I had to see. As soon as I saw my child on the ultrasound I knew I couldn't do it.
The clinic can absolutely NOT convince me that that living child inside me wasn't going to feel anything. I saw the heart beating, and he moved his little hands (almost like a wave). I think god intervened and sent me a message that I was about to make the biggest mistake of my life.
My nurse was very compassionate (which I thought was odd) I asked her for a picture of my baby and she explained that she wasn't allowed to do that. She also explained that she wasn't supposed to show me the ultrasound screen either. Well, she broke the rules and gave me a picture anyway.
Thanks to the nurse at the clinic and to your video I made the right decision. I'll be having the baby in 7 months and am looking forward to meeting my little miracle in person.
Thank you a million times over,
Erica
A change of heart would be good for you and would save innocent millions, Mr. President.
The so-called Freedom of Choice Act is NOT what America's Founders had in mind when they wrote and ratified America's Constitution.
The Constitution's preamble calls for "secur[ing] the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity."
The unborn are "our Posterity."
If terrorists should not be tortured, surely the unborn should not be tortured.
