The Catholic Church features our new president, Barack Obama, in their pro-life commercial. I guess they didn't get the memo he is pro-choice to the max
Well, it's not actually the "Catholic Church" that is running the ad, but I take your point.
Ever hear of irony, Kathy?
Though pro-choice, I respect a good, effective argument the other way.
You just know, however, Limbaugh, Hannity and their ilk are going to freak at this crazy liberal Catholic group, right?
The first time I ever saw an ultrasound image, it was of my own child. I can't possibly know what others feel when they see the same kind of image, but when I viewed this video, I experienced the same sense of wonder and God's love as I did the first time I saw the tiny speck of my son's beating heart and his tiny limbs and head.
How selfish have humans become when some could chose anything for themselves in place of this?
As I watched this commercial ad, a certain sadness came over me. The ultrasound video only shows just how far the arm of reason will need to reach to capture the attention of an audience. At least it's better than the piles of dead fetus' outside of a 60's abortion clinic.
It's not the video that saddens me, it's the targeted audience. For heaven sakes, certainly any pregnant woman knows they are carrying life inside and unless they are blind, deaf, dumb and void of human touch, they certainly must sense a life inside.
CatholicVote.com should be chastised for using Obama as the 'what could possibly be' character and maybe presented an accepted likeness of Jesus Christ who really did institute 'change'.

That is powerful stuff.
