Everyone is anxiously awaiting the news
Published on August 20, 2008 By KFC Kickin For Christ In Politics

I am axiously awaiting the naming of the VP positions especially for McCain.  There still could be a chance I'm not going to the polls this year.   Hopefully this won't happen but alot hinges on the VP choice McCain makes.

During this past weekend's Q&A with Rick Warren of the Saddleback church John McCain answered very simply to the "when does life begin"  question.  He came right out and said life begins with conception. 

Obama, on the other hand, gave this long convoluted answer which in my book was really a  "I don't know" answer.  But then again, Obama has extreme pro-abort ideas and he's sticking by that pro-choice position. I like Ronald Reagan's stance on this issue.  If we don't really "know" and there is much debate on this "when does life begin" issue shouldn't we NOT abort and err on the side of life?  He said we don't bury a "seemingly" dead person until we first make darn sure he's dead first.  So why kill a human being if we're undecided on when he becomes human first? 

There has been some talk about McCain choosing a pro-abortion VP.  I guess what he'd be saying, by doing so, is that abortion is not that big of an issue and if his VP is a pro-abort guy than so be it. 

I would have a problem with that.  

Because if McCain really believed that life begins at conception, he'd do all he can do to protect unborn life and picking a VP who is ok with murdering babies in the womb, in my book, is hyprocrisy.  How can two walk together if they can't agree on the most basic of all basic things? 

At least, Obama is upfront with his belief even if, in my book, he doesn't have a clue about many things including the abortion matter.   He's not being hypocritical but only relaying what he believes to be true,  At least Obama (and I cringe when I say this) is sticking to his beliefs and is honest with us on this issue. 

Somebody told me this week that if McCain picks a pro-abort VP then he will vote for Obama even though he strongly disagrees with him.  His reasoning would be if McCain goes against what he believes  (or says what he believes) by picking a pro-abortion VP  then he deserves to lose.   I'm not sure why McCain would go against his own belief and that of  the majority of the party that supports him.  To me it would be political suicide.

I know one thing.  I will NOT vote for Obama for any reason.  If anything a  NO vote for McCain is a vote for Obama anyhow. 

We will know soon enough. 

What do you think?

I still think you have to look at the big picture and not choose one candidate over another because his VP choice believes a certain way on ONE issue.

While that does sound ok and good what bothers me is the fact that McCain has clearly come out saying he's pro-life.  To pick a partner that doesn't agree means they start out divided already and makes McCain look bad from the get go. 

The point may be moot anyway because the articles I have read said that McCain is NOT going to choose a pro-choice VP.

I hope you're right Boudica.

KFC, I would encourage you to still get to the polls for other issues.  The Senate and House seats are extremely important.  I only see one House of Representative seat for Florida up for grabs (15th Congressional District).  I'm not sure if that is your district but if it is then Your vote is crucial. 

I'm not excited about either Presidential Candidates (currently) but the House and Senate election is very important. 

 

As for my pick on VP Choice. 

I would love to see Sarah Palin as his pick.  The media buzz is Mitt Romney and I would be okay with him.

In cases of rape and incest it is essential. 

That is difficult. If this is about the rights of the unborn wife, why should the unborn baby be punished for his biological father's (or in the case of incest for his biological parents') crime?

 

 In cases where the woman's health is at risk it is essential.

Yes. But I don't think that has ever been the issue.

 

  And because it is essential in those cases it needs to be safe and legal in all cases so that there are enough doctors around to do the procedure on those women that need it.

I don't follow that logic.

If we allowed abortion under certain circumstances, why would it have to be legal under all circumstances?

My guess is that McCain will pick Pawlenty and Obama will go with Kaine.

It wasn't until the 1973 US Supreme Court decided to make the barbarism of "abortion on demand", anytime, for anyone, for any reason, the law of the land.

Roe V Wade did not do that.

Obama will go with Kaine.

Please!  Before he destroys this state!

Amen ...I'm here too.

Yes, I should have correctly said that in 1973 Roe v. Wade established abortion as the artificial "law of the land"...as there is no "right" to abortion and never will be as long as Justice looks down from Heaven. Willful murder is a sin that cries out for God's vengeance.

Abortion is not legal and therefore is not the "law of the land". Article VI of our nation's founding document declares that "this Constitution, and the laws of the United States...made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties...made...under the authority of the US shall be the supreme law of the land."  What  is clearly missing here in the list of supreme laws is court opinion, including that of the US Supreme Court. And this is a biggy. Our Constitution writers knew that a court decision could never be law, much less supreme law of the land.  This is especially true if that court desision contradicted the Constitution itself.

Roe V Wade was judicial supremacy absurdity by unelected justices! It's nuts and has resulted in the intentional death of over 50 milliion babies. They are complicit with every death by abortion and we Catholics are complicit if we vote for a pro-abortion politician who furthers this murderous holocaust.

Abortion is a necessary evil

and KFC POSTS:
In fact, if you dig just a little, you'd find that the abortion decision made in 1973 was all founded on lies. And continues to operate this way. I strongly recommend reading "Won By Love" by Norma McCorvey on exactly what happened back then and subsequent to the infamous decision of 1973. Then go back a few weeks ago and see if you can drum up the news that quietly went unnoticed about a report by Bernard Nathanson (a hero to the movement back then) who commented on the many lies that had to be told to get abortion legalized.
We were tricked basically.

KFC is 100% right. Given the US Supreme Court justices for whatever reasons bought the lie and were basically tricked. OKay....that was 1973 and the truth has been revealed since then by everyone concerned. The father of abortion is also the father of lies. Christ said of Satan that "He was a liar and a murderer from the beginning." The lies surrounding Roe v. Wade and all the subsequent abortions that have taken place since are legion. It's nothing more than political correctness that talks about "caring and compassion" in helping a woman kill her child in what was once the most safest place to be in the planet.....the womb.

Keeping Religion out of it, first, it did not allow abortion on demand for anyone at any time.  It clearly set up an arbitrary system of trimesters (and one of the reasons it is still called the worst case of law ever - either you have a right or you do not).  Second, indeed, it never established a right of abortion, but used the right of privacy to dictate what a woman could do (again within the arbitrary deliniation set down by the justices).

As for it being murder, that is an absolute for some, an impossibility for others, and for the worst, just a case of situational ethics.  The latter I hold in contempt.

getting back to the VP choice and the happenings in Virginia.

Alot of news going on in Lynchburg where Obama has been the last day or so.  Seems as tho he had a big parking lot of 800 spaces all marked out next to where he was speaking.  Well it turned out Liberty owned the land these parking spaces were on and refused to let Obama use it for fear of retaliation and trying to stay out of the whole mess.

So Liberty sent some of their police force to close up the lot and make sure Obama's people stayed out of the area.  People are NOT happy about this.  His following that is. 

So Obama had to rent 15 bus loads to bus people in and all is not well.  Protestors are everywhere and the cranks are coming out of the woodwork against Liberty.  The Liberals are writing in to the local newspaper where my son is an editor.  He said it's a madhouse right now.  Someone likened the whole Obama following to a rock star group come to town.  The following seems almost religious instead of politics per usual. 

There was also some news that happened today although it can't be printed because it's not reliable enough but one of the reporters from the News and Advance got a text message from Obama's camp (It was one of Obama's numbers) saying he was one of the first to get the news of the VP choice.  My son told me who this VP choice was although he said he wasn't sure he got it right so I don't dare say.  

My son said to check the  newspaper for the whole scope.   Here's the link http://www.newsadvance.com/ 

In fact, the frontpage says "Barack Rocks Glass." 

So, is he running for Rock Star or President?

No matter how one slices and dices Roe v. Wade, it is a legal hoax that has fostered, either directly or from those later decisions based upon it, over 50 million senseless killing of unborn babies. That barbarism falsely called a woman's "right to choose" is what I hold in contempt and especially politicians who approve and work to further it.

Keeping Religion out of it,

Well, had it been your article, I may not have said this, but seeing it is KFC's, and since it is Biblical truth, I thought she'd be OK with it.

Opposition to abortion will never go away. We can't call our country or identify ourselves as civilized as long as it remains an accepted practice.

I did not mean to say you could not, just that I was going to.  Sorry I was unclear.
