Life begins at conception, and God breathes a soul into that life immediately.
Shelby aborted her daughter’s 2 siblings and would happily sit down with her 2 1/2 yr. old daughter in the near future and explain to her what she had done as an example of women’s choice….. I wonder what Shelby’s daughter will do when Shelby is an old lady … will she chose to euthanize her mother when she gets too inconvenient to care for her as an example of “women’s choice” which she learned from her mother?

40 Years Ago this week, Democrat Ellen McCormack, pro-life columnist, wife and mother, made Pro Life history by being nominated for president at the Democratic National Convention back when the Democratic Party was Pro-Life.
Ellen McCormack: Pro-Life’s Presidential Candidate of 1976
Ellen McCormack ran for president at the behest of a small pro-life group—The Pro-Life Action Committee—that operated out the Cure of Ars Parish in Merrick, New York. The goal was to use the campaign as a platform to educate the public on pro-life issues by taking advantage of election rules which required the media to give all candidates equal time. Relying on thousands of grassroots pro-lifers across the country, she managed to raise $5000 in small contributions in 20 states, becoming the first woman in American history to qualify for matching funds. Her campaign was not without some controversy. Her single-issue candidacy annoyed political elites so much that they voted a change in funding rules in the middle of the election. As of May 1976, any candidate who did not gain more than 10% in two successive primaries would no longer be eligible for public money. Nevertheless, she had managed to raised $280 00 in small donations, received $240 000 from matching funds for a grand total of half a million dollars, of which $330 000 paid for television advertising. bigbluewave.ca
