Tuesday's Elections
Frank Robinson's famous quote; "Close only counts in hand grenades and horseshoes," applies not only to baseball, but to politics as well. I take no solace in losing a close political race. Elections have consequences, if you lose you did not win, no matter how you spin it! Virginia's elections are a case in point, outside money supporting democrats abortion agenda won the day for the democrats in Virginia, plain and simple. Ronna McDaniel refused any cash support from the RNC to help them out. I don't understand this at all.
Ohio, passed an amendment to their constitution entitled, Issue One, that gave Ohioan's a constitutional right to an abortion without limitations or restrictions. An opinion piece in Crisis Magazine, a Catholic publication, Msngr, Richard C. Antall entitled his article, "We Live Among Barbarians." The barbarians are not at our gates they live and rule amongst us. He makes a cogent point.There was an old Latin saying that ius est ars boni et aequi. That means “law is the art of the good and the just.” In the case of Issue One, that has been turned on its head. Law has become the instrument of evil and injustice. Thanks to 50 years of Roe v Wade and the woman's "right to an abortion," this evil injustice is still inculcated into the very DNA of progressives to the point where the ones who are vilified as evil are the people who take a moral stance against the killing of the unborn.
Since the Dobbs decision in 2022 that overturned Roe, we have lost just about every major state election that the democrats have made about abortion, women's autonomy and reproductive healthcare. That is a sure victory for them. There is no reason to believe they won't use it in the presidential election. Republicans need to realize that every election matters and start pouring money into state and local elections and they must figure out how to turn the tide against the culture of death amongst us.
