The video above is a trailer for a documentary to be released this year titled, “It’s a Girl: The Three Deadliest Words in the World.” The trailer alone is chilling. I can hardly imagine an entire movie documenting this atrocity. But we need to see the culture of death for what it is. Here’s a description of the movie:

Ron Paul: No Constitutional Protection for the Unborn
From time to time, people will ask me what I think about the presidential candidate Ron Paul. There is much that can be said here, but let me focus in on the issue that I believe is the most important—abortion. Paul is a libertarian, but he has a highly rated pro-life voting record in the United States Congress. Nevertheless, Ron Paul does not believe that the 14th amendment protects the life of the unborn. Here’s the language from this portion of the U.S. Constitution:

GOP Candidates Seek Endorsement from Tim Tebow
This is no joke. Tim Tebow told the Associated Press that he has been approached by more than one GOP candidate for an endorsement. Here is the relevant portion from the report: Sensing the excitement and loving his message, Tebow is also being courted by Republican presidential candidates. The quarterback recently told The Associated Press he’s been asked by more than one of the contenders for his support. He wouldn’t name names, but did say he’d declined the offer. “I think you have to have so much trust in who you support, just from product endorsements to endorsing a candidate because if that person or company does something (bad), it…

Rick Santorum got some push-back from university students in New Hampshire who did not like his stance on gay marriage. They even resorted to booing him as he left the stage, and you can watch the whole thing above.

Michael Gerson Has Two Homeruns in One Week
Michael Gerson has hit two homeruns in one week with his Washington Post column. On Sunday, he knocked it out of the park with a broadside of Ron Paul’s libertarianism. Today, he hits another one over the fence with his remarks about Rick Santorum. Gerson writes:

Michael Gerson Has Ron Paul’s Number
Michael Gerson takes on Ron Paul’s bid for the GOP nomination, and he rightly exposes Paul’s libertarian record for what it is. Gerson writes: No other recent candidate hailing from the party of Lincoln has accused Abraham Lincoln of causing a “senseless” war and ruling with an “iron fist.” Or regarded Ronald Reagan’s presidency a “dramatic failure.” Or proposed the legalization of prostitution and heroin use. Or called America the most “aggressive, extended and expansionist” empire in world history. Or promised to abolish the CIA, depart NATO and withdraw military protection from South Korea. Or blamed terrorism on American militarism, since “they’re terrorists because we’re occupiers.” Or accused the American…

Chris Matthews Discovers the Pro-life View
I have often observed that debates about abortion among political pundits tend to miss the point. There is no serious moral contemplation of the issue, but only crass calculations of how a particular point of view might help or hurt some politician.
