Michael Barone: don't apologize when you spoke the truth

Michael Barone, A political pundit has apologized for saying during a recent conference that he thinks the mainstream media wanted Sarah Palin to have an abortion on her baby Trig, who has Down syndrome. Michael Barone, a frequent commentator on talking head shows was responsible for the dustup.
Barone, the author of the Almanac of American Politics, considered the encyclopedia for campaigns and elections, made the comment during a speech at a meeting of the National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges.

The media DID despise Sarah Palin because she gave birth to Trig. They would have and already have aborted him and perfectly healthy babies as well. When 40% of American women are post abortive, there is a lot of rage going around society. It focused on Sarah Palin.
She is a living testament to the pro-life cause, that's why she felt the full force of their fury.
I know. I do too.

Dr James Dobson interviews Sarah Palin

Focus on the Family director Dr James Dobson interviews Sarah Palin on his radio show. By the way, if you include international audience, his show is by far the most popular in the world.
I love what he has to say about special needs children, and how Sarah's love for Trig is such an inspiration. Click here for a link to the broadcast.
Dr Dobson urges us all to be in prayer for this election.

Babies with Down syndrome have no civil rights

I protest this gross injustice with my latest column at Catholic Exchange. Thank God for little Trig Palin who is changing hearts, one at a time.

Trig Palin may hurt the abortion industry

A great post from Opine Tree about the true motives behind Dr Lalonde's fear that the fact that Trig Palin is alive may be bad for women.
It makes one wonder how much money the OB associations receive from the abortion industry. They are putting up another 30 million to defeat John McCain since he announced Trig's mother as his running mate. Just another business investment.

Brownback to introduce our bill today: Take Action!

9/19 UPDATE:
Senator Brownback DID introduce the bill yesterday for an unanimous vote (if any one Senator objected, the bill was not approved) and the lone vote of protest was Sen Bernie Sanders of VT. He is in the tank for Harry Reid who wants this now popular (thanks Trig Palin) bill to be attached to his omnibus spending bill.
This, Senator Brownback's office informs me, is how to kill a bill.

Why don't you let Sen Sanders know how you feel about his killing a bill which would provide information and support to parents expecting a child like Trig Palin? Click here.

We have received word that Senator Brownback (R-KS) will bring up the Prenatally and Postnatally Diagnosed Conditions Awareness Act at 1:00 pm TODAY.
They have asked us to call the following Senators:
Lieberman (I-CT)
Dorgan (D-ND)
Webb (D-VA)
Casey (D-PA)
Please contact these Members' Offices and encourage them to say something on the Senator Floor in support of the bill today.
The Capitol Switchboard number is (202)224-3121
Please ACT NOW!
The Prenatally and Postnatally Diagnosed Conditions Awareness Act will provide funds to develop accurate, up-to-date materials and information for families that receive a diagnosis of Down syndrome or other genetic conditions so that parents can make informed decisions.
It's time to take advantage of all the buzz created by Sarah Palin's son Trig. Let's help parents expecting a child with Down syndrome overcome their fear and understand the reality of life with a special child.
