"Our electioneering racers have started for the prize. Such a whipping and spurring and huzzaing! Oh what rare sport it will be! Through thick and thin, through mire and dirt, through bogs and fens and sloughs, dashing and splashing and crying out, the devil take the hind most.
How long will it be possible that honor, truth or virtue should be respected among a people who are engaged in such a quick and perpetual succession of such profligate collisions and conflicts?"
-John Adams on the overall folderol of an election year
"I long to accomplish a great and noble task; but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble” -Helen Keller

America's heartbeat
Vote for those who can’t and may not ever get the chance to. November is coming very quickly and the chance to repeal deathly parts of the healthcare bill is resting on this election. The longer Congress sits on the legislation, the harder it will become to repeal. It will further burrow into our economy, healthcare system, and the moral fabric of America.
This is one issue that truly breaks my heart, and reveals the true selfishness of our society worldwide. We are blatantly accepting and promoting abortion. We kill 1.6 million babies EACH year. The numbers are staggering. The stats show that 43% almost half of all American women will have an abortion at some point in their life. How devastating to the women, the families, and our culture. My heart is very heavy.
Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the children of one's youth.
Psalm 127:3-4
See that you do not despise one of these little ones.
For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see
the face of my Father who is in heaven. - Matthew 18:10-11
