Dr. Kermit Gosnell, Poster Boy for "Choice"

Somehow it is fitting that the full specter of Kermit Gosnell's Philadelphia house of horrors has hit the news just as we gear up for the Annual March For Life in Washington D.C.

Why? Because the real tragedy is the plain fact that Kermit Gosnell and his band of butchers are hardly unique. There are thousands of Kermit Gosnells operating in abortion clinics far and wide, working every day to slaughter millions of innocent babies each year. Joseph Mengele could not have conceived of industrialized murder on such a massive scale.

Add in the statistics which clearly show minority and poor women being their principle target demographic and one can easily see the fruition of Margaret Sanger's racist vision. Abortion is genocide against the Black community, just as she wanted it to be.

Yesterday was Ask Them What They Mean By "Choice" Blog Day. I tried, several times in fact, to craft a post around that theme.

I failed. Really, there are no words. None that could do justice to the supreme sadness which sits in the pit of my stomach, churning in agony.

So, I'll link to some bloggers who found the intestinal fortitude to bear witness. Because we all know what "they" mean by "choice". They mean infanticide.

Jill at Pundette brought me to tears: The brief, painful lives of Baby Boy A, Baby C, and Baby X.

And, she notes that today is a day of prayer and penance:

In all the dioceses of the United States of America, January 22 (or January 23, when January 22 falls on a Sunday) shall be observed as a particular day of penance for violations to the dignity of the human person committed through acts of abortion, and of prayer for the full restoration of the legal guarantee of the right to life.

Click through, to see the faces of evil.

Stacy McCain says You're Not Disgusted Enough Yet.

What Dr. Kermit Gosnell did in Philadelphia is, as the district attorney said, "barbaric." However, it's something that's been happening every day in America — legally, protected by those "penumbras formed by emanations" discerned by the Supreme Court — for more than 30 years. It's happening today, and will happen tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and it ought to make us sick with grief for the heartless cruelty it represents.

Then he found a true monster. Someone who views the taking of innocent life as a joke. Yes, this is what passes for wisdom among the glitterati and scions of modern liberalism.

Gator Doug and pjMom say what needs to be said to the defenders of "choice". But alas, the defenders are too obtuse to comprehend the lesson.

One last link. Because we need to know that God loves us.

Antidote: "Because of Love"

Hug your children. Tightly. It is in them that we will find peace. It is for them that we must fight the forces of evil. It is through them that we will see God.
