    ‘Right to abortion’ enslaves women, expert warns
    http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/right_to_abortion_enslaves_women_expert_warns/

    “The “right to abortion” championed by feminists and abortion supporters ends up enslaving women because they are turned into instruments of sexual gratification…”

    “The right to abortion is one of those legal notions thought to be “liberating” that actually jeopardizes women, putting them in a situation of profound inequality…”

    2010 Pro-Life Super Bowl Ads

    carol | February 9, 2010

    Disclaimer: I am not into sports and don’t remember ever watching a second of any Super Bowl, but I was looking forward to seeing the Tim Tebow ad.

    Focus on the Family’s Super Bowl commercial with Pam and Tim Tebow

    I found the ad to be sweet, but anticlimactic since the network wouldn’t allow them to use any controversial terms. I believe it was worth every penny due to the tremendous amount of publicity before and after the Super Bowl.

    "Why People Like Sarah Palin"

    carol | October 4, 2009

    Raphael Alexander: Why people like Palin

    http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/fullcomment/archive/2009/10/02/raphael-alexander-why-people-like-palin.aspx

    Sarah Palin: “…So alluring to millions of Americans, and a fair share of Canadians…”

    “Sarah Palin is a classic populist politician. What makes her so popular is her very nature. She is the definition of ‘grassroots‘, a working mother who successfully entered politics at the municipal level and worked her way up to the governorship. She didn’t manage this by impressing people with her five different institutions of education, or how many books she had written on Russian foreign policy. No, she managed it because she inspired Americans who felt that Sarah was ‘one of them’…”

    For every housewife who dreamed of being more, but had to contend with the responsibilities of raising a family, Palin inspires a strange kind of anti-feminism. There is a perceptible sense of pride that one can be “just average”, with all of the same human failings and shortcomings as everybody else. Of course Palin isn’t just your average woman, since her attraction is based on the conglomeration of attitude, personality, and prerogative…”

    “Her supporters continues among the same people who aren’t going anywhere soon: the average American with 2 cars, and 3 or more kids, football practice during the week, hunting and fishing on the weekends, and the ‘down home’ family values that seem to say ‘we’re not perfect, but we’re trying’. You can’t buy that kind of ‘in’ with the people. It has to come naturally, and that’s why Sarah Palin fits the bill.”

    Barack Obama's New Science Czar: John Holdren's Writings on Involuntary Fertility Control

    carol | July 16, 2009

    Study in contrasts: Christian scientist vs. eco-mad scientist
    http://michellemalkin.com/2009/07/15/study-in-contrasts-christian-scientist-vs-eco-mad-scientist/

    Obama sure knows how to pick them to further his radical left agenda! Here are quotes from a book (Ecoscience) co-authored by Obama’s new science czar John Holdren:

    “Involuntary Fertility Control”

    “A program of sterilizing women after their second or third child, despite the relatively greater difficulty of the operation than vasectomy, might be easier to implement than trying to sterilize men…”

    MUCH easier to butcher the women, eh Mr. Czar Holdren?

    “The development of a long-term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin and removed when pregnancy is desired opens additional possibilities for coercive fertility control. The capsule could be implanted at puberty and might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births.”

    “Adding a sterilant to drinking water or staple foods is a suggestion that seems to horrify people more than most proposals for involuntary fertility control. Indeed, this would pose some very difficult political, legal, and social questions, to say nothing of the technical problems. No such sterilant exists today, nor does one appear to be under development…”

    So let’s hear how it should be done, Czar John.

    “To be acceptable, such a substance would have to meet some rather stiff requirements: it must be uniformly effective, despite widely varying doses received by individuals, and despite varying degrees of fertility and sensitivity among individuals; it must be free of dangerous or unpleasant side effects; and it must have no effect on members of the opposite sex, children, old people, pets, or livestock.”

    It must have no effect on members of the opposite sex! How thoughtful!

    There is more… John Holdren admitted that his “preoccupation” with apocalyptic matters such as “the rates at which people breed” is a lifelong obsession inspired by scientist Harrison Brown. Read more about John Holdren’s mentor, Harrison Brown who likened the world’s growing population to “a pulsating mass of maggots.”

    And a comment from Michelle Malkin, “If, as the White House claims, Holdren no longer believes that ‘that determining optimal population is a proper role of government,’ then why does he still pay homage to one of the country’s most renowned population control advocates and plug his half-century-old tome advocating better-living-through-engineered-abortions?”

    President Sarkozy: "Burqa… a sign of subservience, a sign of debasement"

    Sarkozy says burqas are ‘not welcome’ in France
    http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D98VP85G1&show_article=1

    “President Nicolas Sarkozy lashed out Monday at the practice of wearing the Muslim burqa, insisting the full-body religious gown is a sign of the ‘debasement’ of women and that it won’t be welcome in France…”

    “‘In our country, we cannot accept that women be prisoners behind a screen, cut off from all social life, deprived of all identity,’ Sarkozy said…”

    “‘The burqa is not a religious sign, it’s a sign of subservience, a sign of debasement—I want to say it solemnly,’ he said. ‘It will not be welcome on the territory of the French Republic.’”

    http://pajamasmedia.com/phyllischesler/2009/06/22/sarkozy-vs-obama-on-the-burqa-sarkozy-wins-in-a-landslide/

    Barack Obama said, “Moreover, freedom in America is indivisible from the freedom to practice one’s religion. That is why there is a mosque in every state of our union, and over 1,200 mosques within our borders. That is why the U.S. government has gone to court to protect the right of women and girls to wear the hijab, and to punish those who would deny it. So let there be no doubt: Islam is a part of America.”

    Or Mr. B.H. Islam, you could protect the men’s right to force the women to wear the hijab/burqa.

    SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW
    Somewhere over the rainbow- way
    up high
    in the land
    that I heard of once
    Once in a lullaby

    Somewhere over the rainbow- skies
    are blue
    and the dreams
    that you dare to dream
    really do come true

    Someday I’ll wish upon a star
    and wake up
    where the clouds are far behind me
    Where troubles melt like lemon drops
    away above the chimney tops
    that’s where you’ll find me

    Someday I’ll wish upon a star
    and wake up
    where the clouds are far behind me
    Where troubles melt like lemon drops
    away above the chimney tops
    that’s where you’ll find me

    Somewhere over the rainbow
    skies are blue
    and the dreams…that you dare to dream
    really do come true
    If happy little bluebirds fly
    above the rainbow, why
    Oh, why can’t I?

    Why the left ridicules women
    http://blogs.dailymail.com/donsurber/2009/06/11/why-the-left-ridicules-women/

    “Too many American liberals cannot handle a strong, good-looking, intelligent, independent woman who disagrees with them…”

    “So-called feminists stand on the sidelines like so many Silda Spitzers or Elizabeth Edwardses or Hillary Clintons, standing by their menfolk while the boys treat women like dirt…”

    Now THESE are weak women!

    “Hey, support abortion and NOW and its pseudo feminists will let you get away with murder…”

    It is the weak who choose and support abortion. They can’t stand up for themselves or their children.

    The true feminist movement is losing ground with all these radical liberals pretending to be concerned about women’s rights. They only care about furthering the agenda of liberal women.

    But I like what she SAID the most:

    Sarah Palin takes low-key return to the road
    http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0609/23411.html

    “Governor Sarah Palin paused Friday afternoon in front of a monument bearing the Declaration of Sentiments, an early feminist touchstone.”

    “‘We anticipate no small amount of ridicule,’ she read, and remarked: ‘Some things never change…’

    “‘I think the more things change, the more they stay the same in some arenas,’ she told POLITICO…” 

    “It was an honor, she said, ‘getting to be here and to see those who have paved the way to allow me and other women standing on their shoulders to progress. I have so much appreciation for all of their efforts, and their success.’”

    “She cited in particular the role of Susan B. Anthony, the feminist pioneer who was also staunchly anti-abortion.”

     ”The women’s movement, she said, contains ‘a common thread of desiring protection for women – for me that includes our youngest sisters – that’s girls in the womb.’
