Roe v. Wade Revisited

Tomorrow marks the 34th anniversary of the legalization of the American holocaust. Since the Supreme Court's decision in Roe v. Wade, at least 40 million children have been killed because of the efforts of the pro-abortion crowd. Liberals complain and express concern about the genocide in Darfur, but conveniently ignore the killing of innocent children in this country everyday. Under the guise of "privacy" and "choice", abortion on demand has been tearing apart the moral fabric of this country since those unelected lawyers ruled that the Constitution protects the so called "right to privacy." Legal issues aside (and there are plenty), the vast majority of abortions result from self centered reasoning such as "Having a baby would dramatically change my life" (74% of cases) or "Have completed my childbearing" (38% of cases). Even more instructive in this debate: only 1% of cases are estimated to be a result of "rape or incest". [source]

If we, as a country, purport to respect life and human rights abroad, how can we possibly ignore the human rights of those unborn children right here in this country? Undoubtedly, it will take a judicial miracle for Roe to be overturned (and even then, a great deal of work would need to be done within the states). Everyone born after 1973 is a survivor of Roe v. Wade - we should make it our goal to see that judicial abomination reversed.
