The Fight Goes On

April 28, 2009

Dear purplemoon3 ,

I am disappointed to tell you that the Senate just voted to approve Kathleen Sebelius’ nomination as Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Together we fought long and hard against Sebelius and we should be proud of our efforts. Many Senators were encouraged to speak in defense of Life on the Senate floor while debating this nomination.

We can find some solace in knowing that our fight against Kathleen Sebelius’ nomination has brought more attention to Obama’s nominees and their radical pro-abortion agenda, and has activated more pro-life Americans to join us in this fight. This grassroots energy will only increase our momentum as we confront the next round of President Obama’s extreme nominees, beginning with radical pro-abortion nominee, Dawn Johnsen.

Thank you so much for all you are doing in this fight to protect unborn boys and girls.

For Life,

Marjorie Dannenfelser

P.S. Thank you for caring enough to get involved. Would you please consider giving a small gift to the Susan B. Anthony List to support our efforts to stop President Obama's pro-abortion nominees? With your help, we can make a difference for Life!

P.P.S. Don't miss a thing -- add information@sba-list.org to your safe senders list.

'PRO-LIFE' SENATORS APPOINT RADICALLY PRO-ABORTION SEBELIUS AS H.H.S. SECRETARY

Washington, DC (28 April 2009) – American Life League’s president, Judie Brown, issued the following statement today on the Senate’s confirmation, 65 - 31, of Gov. Kathleen Sebelius as secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Sebelius received the support of Kansas senators Sam Brownback and Pat Roberts, two so-called pro-life leaders.

“Today we witnessed a tragedy. Two good men, Sens. Sam Brownback and Pat Roberts, cowed by political expediency and a despairing pragmatism, have cooperated with evil and helped pave the way for the Obama administration’s virulently pro-abortion agenda.

“Faced with the most extreme anti-life presidential administration in history, these two ‘pro-life’ men had the opportunity to radically change the course of Gov. Sebelius’ confirmation process and make a heroic stand against the evil of abortion.

“Instead, they chose to congratulate, support and appoint a woman who, wedded to the Kansas abortion lobby, helped make that state the ‘late-term abortion capital of the world.’

“In her new position as secretary of Health and Human Services, Sebelius will have the power to make the United States the abortion capital of the world.

“Now is not the time to make concessions to evil. Now is the time to stand tall for the personhood of all human beings, from their biological beginning. We will not be intimidated into compromising our principles. Faced with persecution by the Obama administration, we will flourish and overcome the chokehold the culture of death has on our nation.

“The nomination of Kathleen Sebelius as HHS secretary has taught us one thing above all. We cannot count on our elected officials to lead the charge toward human personhood.

“The change – and the charge – starts with each one of us living, breathing and fighting each moment for the day when human personhood is proclaimed and recognized by and for all.”

American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to natural death.
