200 members of Congress are urging the Supreme Court to take another look at Roe vs Wade

While I am instantly thrilled to see this, I don't like the timing on this at all. This being an election year the Democrats had NOTHING to run on that truly fired people up...until now. 

Washington (CNN) More than 200 members of Congress are urging the Supreme Court to reconsider -- if not overrule -- the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which legalized abortion nationwide.
Thirty-nine Republican senators and 168 members of the House of Representatives, almost all of them Republicans, signed a so-called "friend of the court" brief filed on Thursday by the national anti-abortion group Americans United for Life in connection with a challenge to a Louisiana abortion access law due to be heard in March.
The signers include Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas, Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Mike Lee and Mitt Romney of Utah, and Tim Scott of South Carolina as well as Reps. Steve Scalise of Louisiana, Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Steve Chabot of Ohio.
At least two Democrats -- Reps. Collin Peterson of Minnesota and Dan Lipinski of Illinois -- are among the lawmakers who signed.
The brief argues that "Roe's jurisprudence has been haphazard from the beginning."
The decision "remains a radically unsettled precedent" that "has been substantially undermined by subsequent authority," the group continues, adding that court rulings since Roe "clearly did not settle the abortion issue." The group urges the justices to "reconsider those precedents."

Their timing couldn't be worse. From the article, I know this is linked to an abortion case being heard in March, but honestly, couldn't they hold off on this until after the election so that sleepy Democrats and Independents and pro-choice never-trumper Republican voters wouldn't get fired up? I had hoped they would keep their eyes focused on the economy and not the courts.

No question, this is what Pro-lifers have fought for, for decades now. But the timing of this couldn't be worse. It's a horrible position for Pro-lifers to be in. We want abortion ended as soon as possible to save children's lives. Yet if we screw up the timing of this battle, we could lose the most pro-life President we've ever had and flip the courts to lean liberal for decades to come. Should that happen, billions of babies will be slaughtered in the womb-and outside of it, as we've been hearing from several states now. It's evil and disgusting -we can't afford to lose this battle.

The presidential race for Democrats will be about this sole issue now. Democrats had NOTHING to run on...until now. 

Most Republicans I know, almost always run on the courts as being one of their top 3 issues for voting Republican, because we have always wanted to get rid of abortion. Republican voters have always known that this is where the real power is in this nation, the courts. Democrats just figured that out with Trump's Kavanaugh selection. 

This will turn Independents who were considering Trump to now back the Democrat if the Independents are of the "woman's body, woman's choice" point of view. 

We Pro-lifer's all want the same thing, but we have to be smart to defeat such evil. 

Trump has done so much for the Pro-life Cause...now this just made it that much harder for Trump to win a 2nd term which would give him 4 more years of packing the courts with conservative judges- we need that to happen. Pray for our President, he's gonna need it against such evil this election cycle.

We have to continue our prayers for the end of legal abortion remembering that even if the Supreme Court does over-turn Roe vs Wade, the states will still have the ability to legalize abortions. The fight won't end at the Supreme Court. We have to continue the fight beyond the Supreme Court. 

Keep up the prayers and the fight to end ALL abortions! May God help this nation become pro-life. 🙏


In Christ, 

Julie

Twitter and Gov. Dan Malloy try to silence me

Today I was on Twitter and commented on the Supreme Court's ruling in support of gay marriage and a tweet from Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy's account showing the gay "pride" (pride in sodomy I guess) flag at the governor's residence here in my home state of Connecticut.

Here is the tweet from Governor Dannel Malloy showing his joy at more legalized sodomy...

My response?

A simple "You make me want to puke"... six words and an image of a Vatican document on why Catholics must oppose gay 'marriage' and I am silenced.

Apparently, this is NOT to be tolerated by Gov. Dan Malloy, sodomy lovers or Twitter.

In response I got...

and this gem...

and then from Twitter I got...

Coincidence?  Malloy's office?

So the sodomites and their sodomite loving supporters can voice THEIR opinions on the subject with all sorts of things under the hashtag "LoveWins" but if you have an opposing view point you're Twitter account is locked.

Who knew "You make me sick" was a violation of Twitter rules?  I don't see that listed anywhere, but it doesn't matter.  Coincidence?  Malloy's office?  I oppose gay "marriage" because God calls it a mortal sin and for that and my charming way with the English language Twitter suddenly locks my account?

Who else but the Governor could get such fast action in getting another person's Twitter account locked down?  I could be wrong...but I don't believe this is a coincidence and I don't believe it was any other person on Twitter.  That is my personal opinion.

As of now...Twitter has not unlocked my account.


In Christ and not gonna back down or be silenced,

UPDATE: 
After 4 or 5 emails asking Twitter to show me the tweet that violated their terms of service, Twitter has unlocked my Twitter account.  They NEVER told me what tweet violated what rule, instead they claim it was a sort of unfortunate glitch (yeah right).
They sent me the following a moment ago:

**FOLLOW UP:  Banned a 2nd time from Twitter 

Liberals go nuts on Twitter over Hobby Lobby ruling

Nothing like playing along on Twitter to the Left's hashtag #notmybossesbusiness 

She never did answer me 'what other medical uses does the IUD or PlanB have but to abort an embryo'?

Asking that question propelled "TheMountainista" to wish me dead and then threaten to come find me and my "cult followers"- not sure who they are.

Where's all that love and tolerance the Left is whining about?  I never see them showing tolerance or love to ANYONE who has a different opinion then they do.

Anyone on Twitter today who was happy for Hobby Lobby's victory was attacked by liberals.  

But the BEST tweets were to SCOTUSblog by liberals who THINK the blog and twitter account is maintained BY the Supreme Court judges themselves! I love how the folks at SCOTUSblog respond to the hateful attacks they received from the oh so tolerant and loving Left liberals...
  

**That last one is my favorite - 0:-)


And for the record, I don't know "TheMountainista" (or her 48 followers) and have never seen her before on Twitter (and hope never to again).

Prayers for the likes of hate-filled Lefties who love to threaten people. May they one day grow up into real human beings and may God have mercy on them.

In Christ,

BREAKING NEWS: EWTN on Hobby Lobby Case

EWTN Chairman & CEO Michael Warsaw Reacts To Hobby Lobby Decision

Irondale, AL – Statement of Michael P. Warsaw, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EWTN Global Catholic Network on June 30, 2014 US Supreme Court Decision in the Hobby Lobby Case:

 

“EWTN is extremely pleased with today’s Supreme Court decision in the Hobby Lobby case.  The fact that the Court believes that the government has less restrictive means of accomplishing it’s goals is very helpful.  However, it remains unclear whether this decision addresses the serious objections that EWTN has raised with regard to the government’s “accommodation” scheme for nonprofit faith-based organizations. We are consulting with our legal team to determine how this significant decision applies to EWTN and our pending case before the courts.”
