The Enemy Has Infiltrated Our Camp
An Age of Compromise

Those of us who have been in the abortion fight for many years find ourselves at a loss to explain how a spirit of compromise could have so completely permeated the pro-life movement. The consequences of this total sellout have been profoundly negative for the cause of life. Most of the mainstream pro-life groups, particularly those attached to the poisoned tentacles of National Right to Life, have either walked off the field of battle, or have actually joined the other side. 

For those who remain in the fight, it has become nearly impossible to distinguish friend from foe.

Some recent history 
During the 2004 session of the Oregon legislature, "pro-life" Republican lawmakers fought with all their political might to fully fund the Oregon Health Plan - thereby ensuring that a steady supply of blood-money will continue flowing to the likes of Planned Parenthood, Lovejoy Surgicenter, and a number of other death-peddlers across the state. This betrayal came after many months of direct lobbying efforts by LIFE SUPPORT. In the end, twenty seven (out of thirty three) Republican Representatives voted to approve the bloody budget. 

These state-funded abortion supporters were not rogue elements within the Republican Party. Instead, it was the entire Republican leadership team, who all claim to be pro-life, that spearheaded this effort - with House Speaker Karen Minnis, Majority Leader Wayne Scott, Ways and Means Chair Dennis Richardson and Rep. Linda Flores, leading the charge. Instead of choosing life, they chose death, and nearly 9,000 unborn Oregonians have paid the ultimate price since June 2004 as a direct result of their cowardice.  

The culmination - and shock - of this spirit of compromise was evidenced last fall by the Oregon Right to Life (a NRTL affiliate) endorsement of Ron Saxton for governor during the 2006 election.  Saxton, a self professed pro-abort, has never lifted a finger to fight against the carnage being inflicted on so many thousands of unborn Oregonians. In contrast, Mary Starrett, the Constitution Party candidate, has nearly three decades of pro-life leadership under her belt. This one was not even a close call, but ORTL came down on the wrong side because they "did not believe Starrett could win."  

"What?" you ask, "Pro-life groups are now endorsing pro-abort politicians?"  Sadly, yes. We can only shake our heads in disbelief.

David Brownlow, Executive Director of Life Support, summed it up, “The ‘Oregon Right to Fundraise’ endorsement of Ron Saxton was inevitable. This is because the pro-life charlatans over at ORTF are nothing but a Republican front organization, whose sole purpose is to deceive pro-life voters into giving money and votes to Republican candidates, regardless of their position on abortion.”   

Since the Oregon Republicans blew every minute of the 12 years we gave them to make a difference for life, proving they are just as useless as the Democrats, they lost control of the Oregon House in 2006. We say - good riddance!

Nationally, the pro-life situation is in even worse shape.
"Pro-life" Republicans had control of the U.S. Congress for 12 years. During that time, literally billions of dollars were spent keeping them in power. The result? 15,000,000 dead babies. The magnitude of the failure of "the Republican Revolution of 1994" is absolutely staggering.

Last year, the Republican controlled FDA unleashed Plan B - a chemical weapon with a near 100% mortality rate on the unborn victims it was designed to kill - allowing it to be bought off the candy rack at a drug store near you. Plan B is the next addition to the arsenal of child eradication weaponry since RU-486 was legalized in 1999. Republicans continue to give billions and billions to Planned Parenthood and the United Nations to quench their thirst for death. 

Republicans allow George Bush to blather on about "stem cells" and the “culture of life,” while eight million unborn American children have been murdered under Bush's reign (of terror!). Compromised organizations like National Right to Life, continue to bow before this pro-life imposter. Our President, in an act of treason, has broken the oath he made to defend the Constitution - and has in fact launched a concerted attack against it. 

He has run roughshod over the bill of Rights here at home, while launching illegal, immoral foreign wars that have led to the death of well over 100,000 people! Yet, the lost sheep, led by blind shepherds, sit in their backslidden churches, and defend this lying war criminal as a good Christian man. 

Our military has been turned into an imperialist fighting force, dragged into one bloody conflict after another - all to fulfill the lust for power that has infected the minds of the madmen who have seized control of our country. The list of Republican atrocities goes on and on. 

In a mirror image of what happened to the Oregon Republicans in 2006, the stench of the national Republican led war cabal finally became too great to bear. The voters have turned power over to the other dominant crime family - the Democrats - giving them an opportunity to extort additional pain and plunder from the American people. About all we can say is, BOHICA!

If all of this were not happening before our very eyes, in such a public manner, we would say that none of this could be possible. But there you have it folks, laying out there for all to see - like dead shrimp rotting in the sun.

On a positive note:
No one can argue that the last 33 years of pro-life compromise and appeasement - or voting for the "lesser" of two evils - has produced any measurable result toward ending the abortion holocaust. We would hope that this total failure would drive the real pro-lifers to their knees, finally willing to embrace a strategy of principle over politics. We shall see.

Why do we stay in this fight against such seemingly impossible odds?  We are duty bound, as the blood of the tens of thousands of Oregon children we have murdered is crying out for justice. The hands of every Oregonian are stained by the innocent blood we have shed, as all of us who live here have helped finance the carnage in one way or another.

Of this we can be sure - there will be an accounting. May GOD have mercy on Oregon when the payment comes due.

In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his vassal for three years. Then he turned and rebelled against him. And the Lord sent against him raiding bands of Chaldeans, bands of Syrians, bands of Moabites, and bands of the people of Ammon; He sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord which He had spoken by His servants the prophets. Surely at the commandment of the Lord this came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, and also because of the innocent blood that he had shed; for he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, which the Lord would not pardon.  2 Kings 24:1-4
