Pro-lifers greet pro-abortion presidential candidate Barack Obama

You can tell how much IL pro-lifers love their "wonderful" partial-birth abortion and infanticide advocate U.S. Senator Barack Obama by going here. They greeted him in Springfield, IL shouting, "Abortion no, Obama no!"

I was part of that group in Springfield, IL when he ran against Alan Keyes in the Senatorial election. If you're not already aware of it, the man has a 100% pro-death voting record, was raised as a Muslim, and is a strong advocate of same sex marriages. He and Hillary are of the same mindset. I would say that even Hillary is more articulate than he is. He is a slow thinker and sounded like a fool when he was debating Alan Keyes, who is an expert debater and quick on his feet. He couldn't convince anyone that he is a Christian (which he attempted to do) - his actions speak louder than his words. His attempts at debating Keyes were laughable.

Jill Stanek gives us the scoop on the announcement of his intention to run for President and IL pro-lifers' reaction to it.

    Oh, but Jean, he's so nice!

    And doesn't that just make all the difference?

    And as one uninformed political science major at Bradley University in Peoria, IL commented, "And he's so cute - I'm voting for him!"

    Me: "Do you know how he stands on the issues?"

    Her: "Not really, but he looked cute on TV."

    I have heard those kind of statements many times and they make me want to vomit.

    Substantial reasons for voting for someone, right?

    Excuse me - but "nice" guys don't murder babies!

    unfortunately, ad hominem attacks do not earn you much merit. consider, instead, attacking his position rather than who he is.

    lesser of two evils .. obama or bush? you decide.

    Jean,

    Thanks for boldly speaking out the truth about this pro-death candidate.

    I have heard him speak, too, in debate and seen him on TV and I cannot imagine him defending our country with his babbling speech and constant stuttering. He has done nothing for IL - the demos used their money to get him into office so he could be the party of death spokesman - he has no real experience and probably would not even get re-elected here in his home state.

    Obama's policy are an "Obama"nation to human life. He is a Muslim, educated in a Muslim school in Indonesia, claims he is a Christian, but the only time he is seen in his "church" is around election time.

    When he gives a "canned speech", he sounds good, but the man is a stupid as a post, cannot think on his feet, Allen Keyes was so much smarter than him, if it wasn't for the liberal media and their very biased reporting, the guy wouldn't last a day in the real world.

    Anonymous,

    You seem to be a little confused - FYI Bush isn't running in the 2008 election.

    A Boston talk radio guy was going on about Trinity UCC Church in Chicago where OBama is a member.

    He claims that they preach there that African American should not strive to be middle class because that is a "white thing."

    Obama seems confused as exactly who he is.

The Spirituality and Miracles of St. Clare of Assisi

Image
August 11 is the memorial of St. Clare, one of my favorite saints. She was the first woman to follow the life of radical poverty practiced by St. Francis of Assisi and is the co-founder of the Poor Clares. Although I am not a Franciscan, I have had Franciscan friends, clergy, and spiritual directors instruct me on the beauty of St. Clare's spirituality. I have also learned a great deal from reading about her over the years. Clare and Francis (2007) is a film which depicts the fascinating story of her dramatic conversion and surrender to the will of God. St. Clare is the patron saint of television. She is also the patron of eye disorders, embroiderers, good weather, and telephones. The Contemplative Life The Lady Clare was born into a noble family in Assisi in 1193 and was admired for her great beauty. When she heard Francis of Assisi preach his Lenten homilies at the Church of San Giorgio, she was captivated by his words. At age eighteen, she heard him say: "When the

Saint Michael de Sanctis: Patron of Cancer Patients

Image
Today is the feast of Saint Michael de Sanctis, also known as St. Michael of the Saints, a Spanish Discalced Trinitarian priest, the patron of cancer patients. Michael Argemir was born on September 29, 1591 at Vic, Catalonia, Spain. At age 6, he told his parents that he planned to become a monk and began modeling his life after Saint Francis of Assisi. Michael’s parents died when he was about ten years old. He then served as an apprentice with a local merchant. During this apprenticeship, he continued his fervent devotion to the Lord, especially to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. At the age of 12, he joined the Trinitarian Friars at Barcelona, taking his vows at St. Lambert’s monastery in Saragosa four years later.  Shortly afterwards, Michael expressed a desire to join the reformed group of Trinitarians and was given permission to do so. He went to the Novitiate at Madrid and, after studies at Seville and Salamanca, he was ordained a priest. Twice he served as Superior of the hou

Saint Gerard of Brogne: Patron of Abbots

Image
St. Gerard was born to a noble family in Staves, Belgium, in 895. He descended from a royal line of military men and at first felt a share in this call to arms. He trained for the army and, as a page of the count of Namur, he was sent on a special mission to the French court. There, Gerard realized that he was being called to the monastic life. He stayed in France and joined the Benedictines of St. Denis, abandoning his noble birthright and all his worldly possessions. He spent eleven years in France as a monk before becoming a priest. Following his ordination, he left for Belgium in order to found a new abbey on his own estate of Brogne. He was its abbot for twenty-two years and during that period was instrumental in introducing St. Benedict's Rule into numerous houses in Flanders, Lorraine and Champagne.He became known for his engaging sweetness of temper, his strict observance of the Rule of St. Benedict and for the replacement of lukewarm religious practice with true piety.
