Move the hearts of all our public officials and especially our President, to fulfill their responsibilities worthily and well to all those entrusted to their care.
Help them in their special leadership roles, to extend the mantle of protection to the most vulnerable, especially the defenseless unborn, whose lives are threatened with extermination by an indifferent society.
Guide all public officials by your wisdom and grace to cease supporting any law that fails to protect the fundamental good that is human life itself, which is a gift from God and parents.
You are the Protector and Defender of the lives of the innocent unborn. Change the hearts of those who compromise the call to protect and defend life. Bring our nation to the values that have made us a great nation, a society that upholds the values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all.
Mary, the Mother of the living, help us to bear witness to the Gospel of Life with our lives and our laws, through Christ, Our Lord.
Amen.

We have a population problem on this planet as it is.
Quite true. The problem is that we also have a bunch of religious nutjobs reeeeeally worried about a bunch of cells and not worried one iota about live human beings.
I find them to be the most incompassionate beings, but they hide behind the mask of being so compassionate about a buncha cells. How easy that is, too! It doesn't cost them 1 penny to be compassionate about cells. Maybe that's the cheapskate's way of pretending to be compassionate?
Holland —
More than 55 million abortions have been performed since the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade legalized abortion — that's 40 years, an ominous anniversary for those who walked in Monday night's March for Life in Holland.
About 150 joined Right to Life Holland Area in the march that began at Centennial Park, circled downtown and wound up at Central Avenue Christian Reformed Church, where Doug Swink of Winning at Home was the featured speaker.
He remembered the time leading up to the birth of his daughter and that first ultrasound.
"What had once been a thought and an idea, something we could not see with our human eyes was revealed to us as God's gift," he said.
Why do some conservatives like the OP hate freedom?
Live your life the way you want and let others do the same. It really is that simple but it requires that you be willing to deal with your obsession to control the behavior of other people.
I think some of them aren't playing with a full deck. That's why they're all gun-ho about cells and tissues. Of course, I find that people who are nutso about religion are all a bit "off."
