Blood on Their Hands
The US Senate voted
yesterday to confirm Sonia Sotomayor as a Supreme Court
Justice. Sadly, there’s a solid body of evidence demonstrating
we can expect her to be an additional pro-abortion vote on our
nation’s highest court.
It also saddens me that
some of our “pro-life” senators voted for her confirmation.
The biggest disappointment was Senator Lindsey Graham of South
Carolina. During her confirmation hearing, Senator Graham
displayed solid leadership in questioning Judge Sotomayor. But
in the end he voted for her confirmation.
If Judge Sotomayor had
been a member of the KKK or accused of cruelty to animals, it
would have undoubtedly been a disqualifying issue for a
majority of the Senators. So why isn’t it a disqualifying
issue if a prospective justice supports the continued daily
killing of innocent unborn children—by the thousands? That
should be the ultimate disqualifying issue! It certainly
should have been for our “pro-life” senators.
I believe they owe you
and all pro-life Americans an explanation for their vote. I
encourage you to contact each of them and politely but firmly
ask why they voted to confirm a judge who is expected to allow
the killing to continue unabated. The blood of over 3,000
babies that die in America’s abortion chambers each day
deserves to be a higher priority. And it seems to me that this
blood will now be on their hands.
Please contact these
senators:
Senator
George
Voinovich (R) Ohio
Senator Chris
Bond (R) Missouri
Senator Judd
Gregg (R) New Hampshire
Senator Mel Martinez (R)
Florida (just announced his resignation today)
Senator Richard Lugar
(R) Indiana
Senator Lindsey
Graham (R) South Carolina
Senator Lamar
Alexander (R) Tennessee.
Don’t let a political
response to your question end the discussion. Politely remind
these Senators and/or their staff that the blood of innocent
unborn babies trumps all politics on Capitol Hill.
Sincerely for the babies,
Bradley
