“Don’t interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties. And not to Democrats alone do I make this appeal, but to all who love these great and true principles.” ~ Abraham Lincoln, August 27, 1856 Speech at Kalamazoo, Michigan
A parent’s right to raise their children as they see fit is a time-honored American tradition, but today it is being threatened. The Supreme Court’s Troxel v. Granville decision in 2000 undermined a 75-year heritage of Constitutionally-protected, fundamental parental rights, which 8 of the 9 justices abandoned. At the same time, a growing body of international law fuels activist judges to legislate foreign standards from the American bench, while treaties such as the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child would subject parental decisions to government oversight and international review.
Rep. Pete Hoekstra (MI-2) has proposed HJR-42, the Parental Rights Amendment, to stop the erosion of parental rights in American courts while simultaneously defending our laws from international invasion. Please, visit parentalrights.org to learn more about the Amendment, and to join their email network by signing the petition to protect parental rights.
God told the story of the Good Samaritan and showed us how we’re not to just walk on by someone who needs help. Yet, we go about our daily lives while thousands of innocent unborn children are slaughtered in abortion clinics. God says that He will hold us accountable if we do nothing.
Tuesday, Nov. 4th we can do something. We can vote in the guy that will work to overturn the Roe Vs Wade ruling. It is our God given responsibility to protect innocent children from being murdered. God won’t hold us guiltless if we stand by and pick a guy that will support the murder of innocent babies. If you vote for Obama, you are voting to continue the slaughter of thousands, millions of unborn babies. If you vote for McCain, you’re telling God that you want to be like the Good Samaritan and support a man who will fight for the unborn. You think it’s your decision? It really isn’t if you claim to be one of His children. I have no respect for a person who will not do what they can to rescue a little child who is in trouble. My 16 year old sons wonder why people have a problem seeing abortion as murder – so do I. What has this country become?
