Popular & Fun Country Music Video: THE GREAT RENEGER

Enjoy a new wildly popular country song with over 2.6 million hits!  If the end justifies the means then reneging on promises is no big deal.  That's another major difference between the Right and the Left.  The Right knows that the means have a morality in themselves.  The Left lie, cheat and force unpopular, immoral and unconstitutional laws just because they can.

The Pro-Choice Public Education Project Holds That There Should Be More Abortions.

With the Clintons, the position was:  Make abortions safe, legal and rare.  With Obama it became make abortion legal but try to reduce the need for it by addressing the causes of abortion.  (On the side, though sounding humanitarian and compassionate, these positions are still immoral.  And I think those were just words in Obama's case.)

Yesterday, we read in a liberal website, that abortion should be more not less and is actually good for the health of the woman.  Aimée Thorne-Thomsen of  Pro-Choice Public Education Project writes,  "On the other hand, if those 1.21 million abortions represent only the women who could access abortion financially, geographically or otherwise, then that number is too low. Yes, too low. If that’s the case, then what is an appropriate response? How do we best support women and their reproductive health? Do we dare admit that increasing the number of abortions might be not only good for women’s health, but also moral and just?"

It is hard to understand how some people can be so blinded about the personhood of an unborn child.  I guess if one has been stunted into being a perpetual child, then one's capacity to see others outside oneself is equally impaired.  And I thought women had a maternal instinct.

Voting your conscience is not always right.

In short, conscience may not always be right. And one is not obliged to follow a sick or erroneous conscience. So the advice to follow one's conscience is deficient. It needs to be a well-formed and healthy conscience.

Examples of sick consciences are scrupulosity and laxity. The first feels guilt where there is no sin, the latter feels no guilt despite the sin. And if one has a sick conscience, then one needs to see a spiritual director for "treatment".

If one's conscience is healthy, then there is still a need to inform or educate it. The bishops issued guidelines in a document entitled "Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political Responsibility from the Catholic Bishops of the United States" where it was stated:

34. Catholics often face difficult choices about how to vote. This is why it is so important to vote according to a well-formed conscience that perceives the proper relationship among moral goods. A Catholic cannot vote for a candidate who takes a position in favor of an intrinsic evil, such as abortion or racism, if the voter’s intent is to support that position. In such cases a Catholic would be guilty of formal cooperation in grave evil. At the same time, a voter should not use a candidate’s
opposition to an intrinsic evil to justify indifference or inattentiveness to other important moral issues involving human life and dignity.

42. As Catholics we are not single-issue voters. A candidate’s position on a single issue is not sufficient to guarantee a voter’s support. Yet a candidate’s position on a single issue that involves an intrinsic evil, such as support for legal abortion or the promotion of racism, may legitimately lead a voter to disqualify a candidate from receiving support.

These and others would have made it clear to any conscientious Catholic that a vote for Obama was immoral. However, others did not see it that way because they were mislead by fake Catholic groups who misrepresented the Catholic standards and by the politicians themselves who misrepresented their positions. Because of this, one has the duty to get down to the truth by looking at the candidate's voting records and past activities to confirm the veracity of his claims.
