My Daily Domestic Diigolet 10/26/2008

• Eternal Perspectives (Randy Alcorn’s blog): I’m not Voting for a Man, I’m Voting for Generations of Children and their Right to LiveJust an awesome, logical, emotional, article about why it is so important to back John McCain in this election. The lives of millions of unborn children are at stake. And once again I reiterate that a Good Catholic, with a well formed conscience absolutely cannot vote for Mr. Obama and remain in a state of grace. tags: politics, abortion, obama
  • So, is the candidate’s stand on the issue of shedding innocent blood important enough to disqualify him as a candidate? Yes. While a single issue can’t qualify a candidate, it can disqualify him. In my opinion, this issue clearly disqualifies Barack Obama, just as it disqualified Republican Rudy Giuliani.

    I don’t think someone is a good candidate just because he is prolife. But he cannot be a good candidate unless he is prolife. Personally, if he is committed to legalized child-killing, as a matter of conscience I must vote against him.

  • Would John McCain be a great president? I don’t know. Maybe he wouldn’t even be a good president. There are so many claims by both candidates that their words seem like wind to me. I don’t feel like I know a lot. But I do know for certain that one candidate defends the right of the unborn to live, and the other is utterly committed to be sure that it remains legal to kill them. And on THAT issue I know what God says is right and wrong.

    Yes, I realize Obama is cool. As I said two blogs ago, I really wanted to vote for him, so I could be cool too. John McCain is not so cool. And he’s a Republican at a time where being a Republican definitely isn’t cool. The question isn’t whether I’d rather have dinner or play golf with Obama or McCain. (I’d choose Obama.) The question isn’t whether I’d like the Republican Party to change. (I would.) I’m not voting for the Republican Party. In one sense I’m not voting mainly for John McCain. I am voting for McCain because it’s my only way in this election to vote for the right of unborn children to live rather than die.

  • My conversations with fellow Christians who are prolife but are voting for Obama have common themes these days. They always emphasize “Obama is prochoice, not proabortion.” To which I respond, “actually he is pro-legalized-abortion.” This is emphatically true, based on his own words and 100% consistent voting record. It shouldn’t be considered a matter for debate. What politician in the country is more strongly committed to legalized abortion than Obama is? Every radical proabortion group knows this, and everyone of them have been working tirelessly to get him elected.
  • On Tuesday November 4, don’t think you are merely expressing a preference between two men, choosing who you like, who you’d enjoy hanging out with. You’re not voting for a friend, a dinner companion, a dance partner, someone to sit next to at a ball game or to be seen with at a party. Don’t allow yourself to vote as if this were American Idol. In the arena of an unborn child’s right to live, these candidates stand for things far bigger than themselves. And when it comes to the right to life of coming generations of unborn children, they stand for two polar opposites.

• Orlando Sentinel – Obama campaign cuts off WFTV after interview with Joe Biden by Hal BoedekerIt appears the Obama campaign doesn’t know how to handle interviews that aren’t from the loving, adoring liberal left media. When a tough as nails reporter such as Barbara West interviews them – they freak – and cancel. Cowards.tags: politics, Obama
  • Biden so disliked West’s line of questioning that the Obama campaign canceled a WFTV interview with Jill Biden, the candidate’s wife.

    “This cancellation is non-negotiable, and further opportunities for your station to interview with this campaign are unlikely, at best for the duration of the remaining days until the election,” wrote Laura K. McGinnis, Central Florida communications director for the Obama campaign.
