Red, White, and Blue in the Face!

I was reminded today (The Forgotten Battle of World War II: Remembering the Aleutian Campaign) of one of my duty stations during the last half of my Navy career. For those who don’t know, I spent 20 years in the U.S. Navy as a Cryptologic Technician (Communications) from 1969 to 1989. One of my assignments was to the Aleutian island of Adak, Alaska from 1984 to 1986. Like so many military assignments, Adak was out of the way, isolated, and mostly unknown by any but the few who had been there. Until my transfer from the Atlantic Fleet Cryptologic Training Group (working out of CINCLANTFLT & the Naval Security Group Activity Northwest in Virginia) Adak was the kind of duty station I’d heard about, but hadn’t heard anyway say nice things about – it was a sort of mythical assignment – a place most of us knew about but few really knew anything about except that it sounded like a most forlorn assignment.

Planned Parenthood Director Quits After Watching Abortion on Ultrasound

Only the most hardened of hearts could possibly resist the Truth this woman saw.

The Ship of State is Being Steered Toward a Maelstrom of Anti-Christianity

The author of this article serves on an advisory committee to the White House on issues of importance to Catholics.

We are not alone – the majority of Americans (more than 70%) do not support federally funded abortions, do not want the homosexual agenda advanced in schools and forced upon our young children. Despite this our Congress intends to try and pass a health care reform bill which will do precisely what we Americans do not want done. Write, call, email or fax your Congressional representatives and Senators. In late October, knowing full well that the proposed hate crimes legislation would not garner enough votes to pass the bill was quickly attached to the “must pass” defense appropriations bill. Shame.

Susan B. Anthony

In her publication The Revolution, wrote:

“Guilty? Yes. No matter what the motive, love of ease, or a desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. It will burden her conscience in life, it will burden her soul in death; But oh, thrice guilty is he who drove her to the desperation which impelled her to the crime!”

Elizabeth Cady Stanton

classified abortion as a form of “infanticide.” The Revolution, 1(5):1, February 5, 1868

“When we consider that women are treated as property, it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit.”
Letter to Julia Ward Howe, October 16, 1873, recorded in Howe’s diary at Harvard University Library
