From the Editors of National Review Online:

Following Biden’s executive order, that large pot of federal funding [nearly $9 billion] once again will flow indiscriminately to foreign-aid groups such as Planned Parenthood International and other organizations whose chief aim is to profit from an increased number of abortions around the globe — including in countries that reject abortion.

...Though pro-abortion activists cheered these moves, the average American appears to have little interest in forcing the taxpayer to fund abortion. Polling suggests that a majority of the public opposes using U.S. aid money to fund abortions overseas, as do most Democrats and even most who call themselves pro-choice. Likewise, a majority opposes federal funding for abortion here in the U.S., including about a third of Democrats and pro-choice voters.

Despite Biden’s efforts to hide behind his Catholic faith and avoid defending his extremist abortion policy, under his administration, Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers need no longer choose between providing abortion and profiting at taxpayer expense. https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/01/joe-bidens-abortion-extremism/

Today is the annual national March for Life. From its website: "[We are] the largest annual human rights demonstration in the world. But this is not just a protest… TOGETHER, WE GATHER TO CELEBRATE LIFE. We celebrate each and every life, from the moment of conception. We envision a world where every life is celebrated, valued, and protected." National March for Life - March for Life

It’s so nice to have an administration dedicated to healthcare again. *So* nice.
 
"We celebrate each and every life, from the moment of conception. We envision a world where every life is celebrated, valued, and protected."

Well, until it's actually born. Then it's a dirty socialist communist taker.

There is zero evidence for this. None whatsoever. In fact, quite the contrary, Planned Parenthood is the single largest entity in the US that is preventing unwanted pregnancies! Also, since Planned Parenthood is a non-profit organization, your entire post amounts to nothing but bullshit.

Why is it that righties are so obsessed with the Sixth Commandment (thou shalt not kill) but refuse to follow the Ninth (thou shalt not give false testimony against thy neighbor)?

I've often wondered.
Perhaps the Vandals for Christ Club, and the Glock Owners for Christ Club had a Three-in-One Trinity membership sale with the Liars for Christ Club, thus expanding all their memberships.

I suspect it's like the landline telephone you get when you're already paying for the internet and cable TV. You paid your dues - you might as well use lying as often as you can, just to get your money's worth.

Anyway . . . it seems like that.
 
This is NOT "extremism", for crying out loud.

Planned Parenthood prevents far more unwanted pregnancies than the number of abortions it performs. I am glad this funding is being restored.

This isn't so. And I'm pretty sure that you know this isn't so.

Well, looks like Joe is paying dividends already. One week in and he sparked full on JDS and also signed over 20 EO's, reversing most of the stupidity Trump enacted. Now that is winning!
 
I see every day those who are pro-life working/volunteering in all sorts of generous capacities. Remembering that those who are pro-life value ALL human life is important and that those who unborn aren't the only ones who are marginalized. So are the very sick, the very disabled, and the very old.

And then, of course, there are the very poor. Whoever you are reading this, there are people in your own community who don't have a change of socks or underwear, who cannot afford a roof over their heads or transportation to a job or enough food to feed themselves or their families...or diapers or formula.

For a party that claims to be so concerned about separating children from their parents, it's rather discordant see you cheer permanently separating these babies from their mothers
 
"We celebrate each and every life, from the moment of conception. We envision a world where every life is celebrated, valued, and protected."

Sad that you feel that way.
 
Why is it that righties are so obsessed with the Sixth Commandment (thou shalt not kill) but refuse to follow the Ninth (thou shalt not give false testimony against thy neighbor)?

For decades I thought the ninth commandment was, "You shall not lie." So I learned to hate jokes, sarcasm, and phrases like "The Catholic Church is 2,000 years old." (What is the word for that kind of comment?)

Giving "false testimony against your neighbor" is very specific, however. It means do not lie about what your neighbor did - perjury in court, for example. So on this topic, the ninth commandment applies to crap like, "The mom murdered her baby." She did not.
 
This is NOT "extremism", for crying out loud.

Yes it is. How would you react if the taxpayers had to pay for my ammunition for my AR-15?

Planned Parenthood prevents far more unwanted pregnancies than the number of abortions it performs. I am glad this funding is being restored.
And if liberals and progressives weren't so damn selfish, your would not need government funding of abortions.

I am waiting for you to post about giving Biden a chance. You claimed to not be a Trump supporter and believe in giving everybody a fair chance, but I don’t see it. As for you article, America doesn’t fund abortion directly. We don’t fund foreign abortion clinics to my knowledge. Past administrations have refused giving funding to organizations that permit or advocate abortion as an option on any level. When the GOP is crying about cancel culture and free speech, it looks ridiculous of the GOP to cut funding for a foreign women’s advocacy group and domestic violence advocate groups that don’t even provide abortion but will counsel a woman on obtaining one and in a country where it’s legal to do so.

Also, I am way past losing my patience in seeing Christian moral police attacking another person as a Christian. It’s really awful.

Simply looking at how they followed Trump’s example on Covid and the disgusting eugenic crap that came from the Texas GOP (open the economy, old people may need to be sacrificed for the economic prosperity of the young and greater nation), they are full of crap. It’s about controlling women.

If so-called "pro-lifers" really cared about everyone's life, all Americans would have single-payer health care; every kid would be in school; everyone who wants a living-wage job would have one; no woman would be forced to die because she was pregnant; only the women who want to be moms would deliver babies; there would be no death penalty or wars; only people who need guns would be allowed to have them; college would be affordable for everyone who is accepted; no families would be broken apart because of their immigration status; mentally sick people and drug addicts would not live in prison; our environment would always be getting better instead of worse; and poverty would not exist. They all go back to the same thing: being a huge supporter of every human life.

I don't expect anybody to follow my posts, but you must not be following mine. I think every President should be given a chance/be offered a honeymoon. I've stated this previously, but I'll make it official just for you: Every President should be given a chance, even one for whom you didn't vote. Former President Trump was never given that chance; in fact, only 19 minutes after his inauguration, talk of impeachment began in earnest. I was never a Trump fan, but I am a fan of fairness.

I saw a bunch of pro life people defend family separation and putting people seeking refuge and their kids in prisons. I have seen the Catholic Church excommunicate people involved with a 9 year old rape victim obtain an abortion. I have seen christians attack their own and accuse them of not being actual Christians because of their political views.

You can offer any number of atypical and extreme examples, including in foreign countries, but you're ignoring the typical and also denying here the fact that even in your own community, wherever that is, there are people who are selflessly donating their time and treasure to help those who need help. I'd like to think that you're one of them, but it's difficult for me to believe because if you were, you would be acknowledging the great good being done because you were witnessing this yourself.

And I will repeat: I see this daily.
 
How much will the US Federal Government spend on abortions in 2021?

How much did the US Federal Government spend on abortions in 2020?

How much has the US Congress authorized for abortions so far this year, 2021?

When will the Hyde Amendment be revoked?

How would you evaluate human over-population? What percentage of children starving, or malnourished?
