I am so burdened.  

5 days ago we inaugurated a new president.  One who on the White House website states clearly that he will support a woman’s right to choose and will allow the use of government money for international abortion.  I wondered when that came down the pike, just how long would it be before the US Government wanted to spend our money on state funded abortion.

Nancy Pelosi gave an interview yesterday.  Read her exact words.

PELOSI SAYS BIRTH CONTROL WILL HELP ECONOMY
Sun Jan 25 2009 22:13:43 ET
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi boldly defended a move to add birth control funding to the new economic "stimulus" package, claiming "contraception will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government."
Pelosi, the mother of 5 children and 6 grandchildren, who once said, "Nothing in my life will ever, ever compare to being a mom," seemed to imply babies are somehow a burden on the treasury.


The revelation came during an exchange Sunday morning on ABC's THIS WEEK.


STEPHANOPOULOS: Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?


PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children's health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those - one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.

STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that?

PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy.

*******END OF ARTICLE

I really don’t know what to say right now.  I know that to be more worried about the consequences of the downturn in our economy and not worry about the consequences of spitting in God’s face is treacherous.  In order to not speak in anger, I will refrain from further comment right now.  God help us.

What next?
