- Culture Campaign points out evangelicals were “the largest single constituency in the electorate in the 2010 midterm elections” and that they “compromised 29% of the vote and cast an astonishing 78% of their ballots for Republican candidates.”
- Albert Mohler gives a post-election assessment and reminds us that “Now is the time for Christians to pray for those who were elected and for the government they will serve. Things are going to get interesting fast.”
- Catholic Vote contrasts the pre-election emotion of NARAL’s Nancy Keenan with post-election Nancy, as featured in emails to supporters. What a difference a day makes.
- At the Priests for Life blog, Fr. Pavone reminds us that though voting is critically important, we must realize our responsibility doesn’t end there.
- Wesley J. Smith shows a trailer from Google Baby, a documentary about foreign surrogacy, which he views as a human rights issue, not simply a women’s issue:
- ProWomanProLife shares a video on euthanasia/assisted suicide entitled, “In Support of Life – The Catholic response to Euthanasia.” However, as blogger Andrea Mrozek states, “I don’t actually think you have to have any faith at all to relate. In matters of life and death, on the precautionary principle alone, we should stand on the side of life because our own understanding is always limited.”

Albert Mohler is looking WAY too into it.
All it took it to take a look at the economy and you knew those who were in power would be out of power. Happens every election the economy is bad. Doesn’t matter the reasons we’re in the mess – people are just upset when the economy is bad.
We get two years of not much getting done now…which is probably a good thing.

I suggest they re-name the film, ‘Live babies r us’
Ex-RINO,
A woman was married to a man who was convinced he was dead so she took him to their family physician and asked the doc to prove to her husband that he was really alive.
The doc asked the husband if dead people bleed.
The husband replied indignantly, “Of cousre not. Everyone knows dead people do NOT bleed.”
The doc poked the husband in the finger with a needle and blood immediately began to flow.
The husband exclaimed, “I was wrong. Dead people do bleed.”
==========================================================
A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.
or to put it more succinctly: Humans are stupid.
[None is so quick to anger as a fool caught in her/his folly.]
Ken – By the way, I’ve been thinking of changing my name on here, but ex-GOP is now a brand…I am known and loved this way. I had five key elections (gov, us senate, us house, state senate and house) – and I was a 3/2 Dem/GOP split. Having a very hard time justifying the GOP on a national level, but felt they had better people at the state level.
