The Audacity of Norma "Roe" McCorvey to Pray for Obama

I was but a mere 16-year old, stupid, uninterested in government punk when the Jane Roe v. Henry Wade abortion case made history.

In January 1973, the United States Supreme Court deemed that women had fundamental right under the Constitution of the United States to abort a pregnancy.

Norma McCorvey, a 21 year-old rape victim was Jane Roe and fought for the right for women to abort any unwanted pregnancies. She never had an abortion, opting to give her third child up for adoption.

Fast forward to May 2009. Norma “Jane Roe” McCorvey is now an anti-abortion crusader and founder of her own pro-life Roe No More Ministry. She has flipped the script. Nothing wrong with that. Women have always had the right to change their minds.

However, there she was with the likes of Alan Keyes and Randall Terry on television at the University of Notre Dame protesting a May 17, 2009 commencement speech by pro-choice supporter and U. S. President Barack Obama.

Again, nothing really wrong or unusual with exercising one’s 1^st Amendment right to peacefully protest, even if it’s against a private institution. Not until she opened her mouth.

However, I thought I would die when I heard her say she was praying for Obama’s soul because he supported the same right for all women that McCorvey had served as the poster child for 36 years ago. She thought it was wrong for him to speak at a Christian education center although the faculty invited him. If her audacity wasn't the equivalant of Rush Limbaugh praying for Amy Winehouse, I don't know what is.

It took every muscle in my head to not scream, “Bitch you’re the one who lead the fight to legalize abortion, gave up all three of your children, worked in abortion clinics, had drug and alcohol problems, and dabbled in bisexual relationships until your sudden conversion to Christianity. And you’re praying for Obama? When do you pray for yourself?”

But I didn’t. I aborted the thought. Then immediately directed my attention to God and asked him/her what became of McCorvey’s prayers for Obama.

I‘m still waiting for God to answer while hoping he/she continues to protect me from his/her followers.

Sarah Palin needs prayer to speak

Ever seen an on the street news report where the reporter seeks out the most ignorant, inarticulate, maybe even intoxicated person on the street for an update?

Reporter: Excuse me sir. Can you tell me what happened?

Street Person: Yeah. See, like I was just standing ova by da dumpster when dis here truck pulls up, see.

Rep: Ok, what did you see?

SP: Well this dude gets out and starts walking dis way. I jumped back out da way like John McCain dodging a debate. Next thang I knows, she standing in the street talking to herself, the man with the gun sittin' in the bed of his truck with a gun to his own head, and you standing here askin' me some damn silly questions.

Rep: Yes, but sir, what happened? How did this end up like this?

SP: See, I'm tryna tell you. I was just standing right next to everything. He asked her a question about foreign policy. She starts talking and the man went nuts.

Rep: Did you know the victim?

SP: Like I said. I knows errybody in this hood. And errybody knows me. Don't nuttin' go on 'round here dat I don't know about. I sees errything that Stevie Wonder can't. Hell, I can see Russia from right here.

Rep: Thank you sir. This is Joe Reporter on the street where the woman talks people insane. Back to you in the studio.


And so it was, the first non scripted, hand held Sarah Palin interview. Is she a bumbling idiot or what? How anyone can watch and listen to her talk without dropping to their knees in prayer is beyond me. This woman trying to speak on anything foreign sounds worse than a crackhead trying to explain the Monroe Doctrine.

Please pray for Sarah Palin. She needs it. Hell, we need it. Pray that she is not ever asked to speak without practice. Pray that we won't have to listen to any more impromptu interviews.

That African preacher needs to do another exorcism. Pray that she discovers a logical thought process. Someone needs to cut the pull string off this mis-talking doll. She left Alaska is such a hurry she forgot to turn on the Northern Lights.

No wonder she is such an adept moose hunter. She can probably talk to them. Or maybe she freezes them in their tracks with her stupidity, then she shoots them. Here moosey, moosey. Bang! Poor thing. Not the moose. I mean Sarah.

Back to you , folks.
