While lamenting the sorry choices on both tickets yesterday, I realized that this is the first year that one of the victims of Roe v. Wade could have run for president. Those children aborted in 1973, the first year that abortion was made legal, would now be men and women 35 years old.
True, perhaps no one who would have been born that first year would have run for President at the very young age of 35 ... but maybe 5 years from now? Or 10? Or 20?
Each year that we complain about the choices before us, we should realize that there may have been men or women much more suited to lead -- but our country's highest court permitted them to be destroyed in the womb.
Sin plants seeds of destruction. The sin becomes its own punishment. How long can we allow the holocaust of abortion to continue before we all are aware of the punishment it will bring?

Did you hear the recent Democratic debates in Cleveland? Each candidate was asked by Catholic reporter Tim Russert to mention one vote while Senator that they truly regretted. Obama's comment was outragious, but even more revealing of his evilness. He regrets voting to save the life of Terri Schiavo, and wishes he would have voted to remove her feeding tube. Unbelievable,that that was his biggest regret.
Yes, wasn't that unbelievable? I noted that with disgust, too. And it stung me particularly, as I'd blogged my heart out for Terri Shiavo.
