The moral issue of our time is abortion. Since 1973, a whole class of human beings- the most innocent and defenseless have been stripped of all human rights.
The slaughter of over 50 million unborn children has unleashed unspeakable evil.
This includes:
Complete loss of respect for life- dead babies found in dumpsters, trash and toilets
Partial birth abortions, infanticide, abortion as birth control, gender selection abortions
Women maimed physically, emotionally or dead at the hands of abortionists
Minors harmed by abortions without parental notification or non reporting of sexual abuse
Men using women by relying on abortion to avoid responsibility
Fathers denied any rights in deciding if his child lives or dies
The above list only begins to describe the ramifications of abortion on demand, at anytime for any reason and at taxpayers expense.
As we remember today all those lives destroyed by this infamous Supreme Court travesty. Let's pray soon all civil, human rights will be restored to the preborn. Lastly, may our actions find us diligent in this battle. May we not be ashamed when someday asked by our horrified children or grandchildren, "What did you do when they were killing children?"
I'll end with a plea.
Please Forget Me Not!
I’m so small, not easily seen or heard,
A baby, with no voice nor choice, so absurd.
Mother Earth has rights, animal rights, even criminal rights,
Yet they say it’s all settled, those Roe v Wade fights.
Baby condors, snails and whales have defenders,
I’m, a glob, a pregnancy by-product, what pretenders!
My blood is sought, for many dollars bought,
Who will cry out for me, please forget me not.
Be quiet, don’t bring up the thorny “A” issue
Don’t rock the boat for a little bit of tissue.
But I have no voice, no choice, nothing to say,
By their CHOICE, my life is taken away.
Mom, Dad, please let me live life and see days light,
Don’t let the womb be my tomb, I’m worth the fight!
My blood is sought, for many dollars bought,
Who will cry out for me, please forget me not!

Where is My Country?
As I walked around the land of the free
Such shocking bloodshed from sea to sea
Hardened criminals thrive while innocent babies die
How can this be? Where is my country?
Again I looked around the land of the free?
A government stranglehold from sea to sea
A people overburdened by rules and sky high taxes
How can this be? Where is my country?
I saw what had been the land of the free
Gays and jihadists rage from sea to sea
While our faith and cross are held in disdain
How can this be? Where is my country?
Lawlessness stalks the land of the free
Hordes of illegals as far as the eye can see
Their rights trump those of rightful citizens.
How can this be? Where is my country?
I listened across this land of the free
To a President who bows, is so sorry overseas.
USA, some self hate, they just don’t appreciate
How can this be? Where is my country?
Then I heard the sound of hope in the land of the free
Many brave warriors willing to fight for you and me
Many Moms and Dads teaching children truths of liberty
So it can be. There is my country
Again there is rejoicing in the land of the free
The Lord was born to save and set us free
We must know and live our marvelous History!
And so it will be. At last, there is my country!

Mi Mami
Love, a mother's motivation
has been her life long vocation
Easily caring for four kids and soldier Dad,
I thought her life was a vacation
My childhood filled with laughter, hugs,
kind words and sweet cookies
Love, a mother's motivation,
has been her life long dedication
Once she had bounce and beauty,
Years later still full of energy and ageless grace
Sharing wondrous joys and deep sorrows,
her prayers keep us in His hiding place
Love, a mother's motivation,
Mom, you are my life long inspiration!

Hopes, Change and a Dream
Amid the opulent inaugural glitter and historic glow of the new presidency ofBarack Obama is a choice between death and decency. He enters the White House promising hopeful change to fulfill a dream for all Americans. Yet how can it be, when a whole class of Americans, innocent, defenseless, is treated as trash. The point is illustrated by a former abortion clinic employee, who gave this following account:
A baby was 35 weeks gestation whenthe abortion was performed. The baby came out and was moving. The abortionist took a utensil and stabbed the baby in the left ribcage. She twisted it until the baby stopped moving.
At another abortion clinic in Florida, an AfricanAmerican baby girl was also born during the abortion. The baby was shoved intoa bag and tossed on to the roof of the clinic. She died a horrible death gasping for air. It is clear that preborn babies remain the new Blacks, a whole class lacking in the most basic human rights.
Obama’s lofty pronouncements of caring for the least of these or being his brother’s keeper conflict with campaign promises to the Planned Parenthood camp. During the campaign, he was careful to cover his radical pro-abortion extremism. At times it did slip out. For instance, he stated regarding his young daughters that “... if they make a mistake, I don’twant them punished with a baby.” Equating a baby with punishment is a most radical pro abortion view. When asked by Pastor Rick Warren, at what point does a baby get human rights,Obama said, “…answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade.” Reality exposes his answer as fiction. The truth is so simple a child readily understands it as expressed by the elephant in Dr.Seuss’s story Horton Hears a Who, “A person’s a person, no matter how small.”
If Obama wants every American life protected, he can begin by changing his position on FOCA, the Freedom of Choice Act. If he signs this bill as promised, all pro life protections across the states will be invalidated. This would include; Partial Birth Abortion bans, restrictions on abortion funding, parental involvement laws and conscience clauses. This extremist position on abortion is consistently opposed by a majority ofAmericans. Two recent polls the Harris Interactive survey and the Marist College Institute of Public Opinion poll confirm it. They revealed that a small minority, only 9% and 8% respectively, of Americans favor abortion on demand at any time, for any reason and at taxpayer’s expense. Obama will choose death and destruction or life and liberty. He can become Lincoln like by restoring personhood to the preborn. This January 22, 2009 marks the anniversary of 1973 Roe v Wade Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion and its legacy of over 50 million dead preborn children. It is a hope and a dream that Obama will reverse his FOCA promise. That is change we can all live with.

Won't Get Fooled Again
"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss..."
Hopefully these will not become prophetic lyrics by the rock band the Who.
The latest disclosures about Obama reveal a picture of radical, socialist, Marxist core beliefs and connections. His expressed desire to "spread the wealth around" is cause for concern to those with some knowledge of history.
Because my family came from Cuba, I know its sad story offers valuable lessons. In the late 1950's the Cuban people were taken in by an eloquent, young leader who promised change. He promised to give the people all they needed - education, medical care, help for the poor, justice and equality.
The people wanted to believe that Fidel's definition of change would save them. Only too late did the people realize Fidel was a tyrant. By then he had already taken complete control of guns, the press, jobs, food, travel, education, businesses and farms. The people were forced to submit, flee, or face imprisonment and execution.
My grandfather, Americo Sera, had worked hard to have a small ranch and tile factory in Holguin, Cuba when Castro took over. One day Fidel's soldiers came to his home located just above the tile factory in town. The soldiers led by my grandfather's own daughter, my aunt, had come to "spread the wealth". Americo's home was declared much too big for one family. The house was divided up and two other families moved in to share the wealth. At the point of a gun, he had to share the fruits of his labor with those who had not earned it. He and my grandmother, along with many other relatives were blessed to escape to America for freedom and opportunity.
One could say there's no way that could ever happen in the US. Cubans never imagined it would happen to them, either. Wisdom recognizes the slippery slope from socialism to the deliberate, slow loss of freedoms. The price of liberty is vigilance to guard the Constitution from Obama who views it as "a charter of negative liberties" He sees it as an obstacle to the "redistributive change" he wants to impose.
Another common thread in the socialist, Marxist mindset is a cold disregard for the sanctity of human life. As for my aunt, the committed revolutionary party member, she remained faithful to Fidel until her bitter end. Her letters to relatives in the US were full of communist slogans. After over forty years of service, the now elderly woman wanted to visit her family in the US. Although she was healthy, the Cuban authorities insisted she go to the hospital for a check up before receiving permission to take the trip. She never made it out of the hospital to visit family. We later learned from a nurse, who had escaped from Cuba, that my aunt had been given a lethal injection in the hospital. Such was the Cuban government's final treatment of a loyal but now useless comrade.
Such barbarism can't happen here or can it? A former abortion clinic employee gave the following account. A baby was 35 weeks gestation when the abortion was performed. The baby came out and was moving. The abortionist took a utensil and stabbed the baby in the left ribcage. She twisted it until the baby stopped moving. At another abortion clinic in Florida, an African American baby girl was also born during the abortion. The baby was shoved into a bag and tossed on to the roof of the clinic. She died a slow horrible death gasping for air.
Despite Obama's denials and the media cover up, his record is clear. He fought any legal protections for babies born during an abortion. He also supports the gruesome procedure, partial birth abortion. This is from the one who claims to care for "the least of these".
Remembering the sorrowful history of the Cuban experience, teaches to watch for other red flags. A common one is the demonizing and silencing of any opposition as the Obama campaign has skillfully maneuvered. The flow of information is kept from the electorate as Obama has sealed all his records including his birth certificate. And when Obama calls for an "civilian national security force" as strong as the military, then watch out! He is dangerous and must be defeated by electing John McCain.
The Who really got it right.
"Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again."
Hopefully these will not become prophetic lyrics by the rock band the Who.

Support Prop 8
to: La Mesa City Council
subject: support marriage prop 8
It is not often that as leaders in La Mesa, you have the opportunity to take a stand that makes a real difference for La Mesa families and children. You can do that as a council and vote to support Prop 8 – the affirmation of the traditional definition of marriage being between only one man and one woman.
It really is simple as voting for Mom, apple pie and the American way. Really, Prop 8 is just ABC
A - Accountability to hold off judicial tyranny of four judges who over ruled the over 61% of the California voters who voted for Prop 22. So we must do it again. This time a constitutional amendment so that four judges will not be able to redefine marriage into something unrecognizable that silences the vote of the people
B. stands for benefits. We hear very emotional appeals from opponent of Prop 8 that they just want the rights everyone else has. What is left out is the reality that with civil unions in California they already have all the benefits just not the name. Prop 8 will have no effect on civil unions. It will affirm in the Constitution that marriage is between one man and one woman as it has always been.
C. is for our children. Redefining marriage will by law lead to the teaching of same sex marriage to children as young as kindergarten disregarding parental wishes. This has already happened in Mass. As father who attempted to opt out his kindergartener, was arrested and told his parental rights ended as the school entrance. Recently, there is the example of the first graders field trip to a same sex wedding in San Francisco. Churches will face lawsuits to be forced to embrace that which is against their beliefs.
Lastly, this is not just another political, social issue. It is the foundational building block of stable societies, families and the best for our children. I urge you to rise up, stand up and speak out with one voice for Prop 8 – traditional marriage one man and one woman.
Please do what is best for La Mesa!
