Lies of Abortion Barbie

It appears that Wendy Davis, the one-issue (abortion) liberal from Texas, has been doing what liberals are ultra famous for doing; flat-out lying.  You see, Wendy Davis (who is running for governor of Texas based on her filibuster of the Texas abortion law) carefully built this image of a hard working single mother of two who put herself through law school at Harvard.  She was portrayed as a heroine in the lapdog MSM.  Wendy Davis claimed to be a single mother at age 19.  Except for the fact she was divorced at age 21.

Kermit Gosnell: Holocaust of the 21st Century

As the trial of abortion doctor, Kermit Gosnell, continues in Philadelphia, more horrific news comes out describing his Nazi-like abortion procedures.  To begin, none of this doctor's staff was trained or licensed to practice.  That, in and of itself, is simply inexcusable.  Gosnell's crimes involve inducing labor in women who are 6-8 months pregnant and then murder the newborn children.  He is currently charged with the murder of seven infants and one mother who died from an overdose of the drug Demerol.  Some of the horrors described by staff include reports of fetuses and body parts kept in jars and on shelves.  One staff member described an infant being placed in a toilet.  The newborn infant tried to get out.  But, was apparently drowned.  Abortion Rights groups have condemned Kermit Gosnell for his practices.  However, anti-abortion activists say this is an example of the murder taking place in abortion clinics all over the USA.  The biggest complaint, from anti-abortion activists, is that the mainstream media is giving little to no coverage of this "holocaust" of the unborn and newborn infants.   That is exactly what this is, an American Holocaust of the unborn and newborn infants.

I'm not sure how the news media cannot be blaring out news about this horrible crime every day.  Many news outlets consider this a "local crime story."  That is a piss-poor excuse.  The Boston Marathon Bombing was a local crime story if you follow that simplistic logic.  Just by himself, Kermit Gosnell killed far more human beings than the two warped terrorists in Boston.  Gosnell is only being charged for seven deaths, including one mother.  No doubt, this "man" is responsible for many more deaths than this.  To me, this is a the crime of the century.  But, you'll never get that kind of reaction from the abortion rights groups or the MSM.  The MSM does not want to set this up so people can actually see how horrific abortion truly is.  How many other Kermit Gosnells are out there?  Are we to believe this is just an isolated case?  The most vulnerable of our society, infants, are being murdered as soon as they are born.  How can we continue as a society when this sort of thing is allowed?  Abortion is murder.  No one can define the actual time of life.  But, I will continue to insist it is at conception.  I don't want to hear about miscarriages and so forth.  That is a different matter.  But, it is one that abortion rights people like to bring up.

 Meanwhile the holocaust of the 21st century goes largely unreported.  If abortion rights groups were sincere, they would also advocate that the MSM report this horrific crime each and every day.  But, for the past six weeks, there has been very little news about Kermit Gosnell.  I suspect there will continue to be silence on this crime from the MSM.

UPDATE:  Well, it appears the abortionists win again.  Yesterday, it was announced Kermit Gosnell was found not guilty on 3 counts of murder.  Apparently some other counts were dismissed for lack of evidence.  However, four other counts remain to be resolved at this time.

Herman Cain in Trouble

Herman Cain's less than stellar performance in Tuesday night's GOP debate has seen some chinks in his armor.  None are what you could consider mortal wounds at this juncture.  But, he has had to clarify at least three comments he has made before and during the debate.  One, he obviously made a joke about having an electrified fence about twenty feet high on the Mexican border.  But, he should have known that the news media is very politically correct.  They were not going to let that one pass by.  Cain made it clear he was simply joking.  If it were financially feasible, I would personally like to see some sort of fence that would make illegals think twice before attempting to cross.  His "999" plan was viciously attacked from the outset by Romney, Perry and even an obviously finished Michelle Bachmann.  He said it was like comparing "apples and oranges" without really clarifying what consisted of apples and oranges in his tax plan.  Cain also got into hot water with his less than clear message on abortion.  He initially made it sound as if he were personally against abortion, but felt the government should not intrude on such a personal decision.  That put him on par with people such as Joe Biden, Barack Obama and a host of other liberals.  Cain later stated he was categorically against abortion regardless of consequences.  Taken one by one, the issues were not to be considered hurtful for Cain.  But, taken as a sum of parts, it points to some troubled times a head for Herman Cain.

Herman Cain has to be more clear in explaining his positions on issues.  He states he wants to bring common sense to politics.  But, he is muddying the waters with his vague statements that are important to conservatives such as illegal immigration, taxes and, of course, abortion.  It was not a bad night for Cain.  This has not been what you could call a bad week and debate for Cain.  But, at the same time, one can't say this had been a good week either.  I have been leaning in the Herman Cain direction.  But, I will never again vote for a man whom I know little about.  No, I did not vote for Obama.  But, I wager a lot of people who voted for Obama not only regret that vote, but regret not delving into his past positions on issues.

Like Obama, if Cain is elected as President, he will be a novice in Washington D.C. politics.  He has to learn to avoid the landmines that are there in his path.  Americans want a President who has a clear, concise message.  Herman Cain has shown this week he has work to do to convince the American voters he can be that man.  I believe Mr. Cain can come back.  He has to go on the attack at those who feel his 999 plan is unworkable.  Right now, Herman Cain is on the clock.  His polling is showing people trust him.  But, if he continues to be unable to clarify his positions, those polling numbers will drop like a rock into the ocean.  It definitely is time for a change in American politics.  But, not more of the same as we have seen in Obama.  Cain has to change that perception of himself.
