2010 House Race: Arizona, District 5
12 Aug 2010Of the few races I’ve covered so far, this one hits closest to home, being, as it were, home. Not only is Voices for the Voiceless located in District 5, but we are also involved in this year’s house race, working on Jim Ward’s campaign (http://www.votejimward.com/). With our allegiances thus fully revealed, I’ll attempt to [...]

This most certainly should not be the last generation!
In: General
16 Jun 2010Although my official, listed duty is news, I found this article by Peter Singer (published in the New York Times) irresistible. It’s title? “Should This Be the Last Generation?” Due to the nature of this blog, I pursued this article, finding it to be well-written and thought-provoking. Beyond this, however, the opinion piece was brilliantly [...]
Rising Above Low Expectations: A Higher Calling
In: General
1 Jun 2010I think it is pretty safe to say – unfortunately – that, in this day and age most people have a certain idea about these strange creatures called “teenagers.” There are three things that can define male and female teens:
Males:
They sleep a lot.
They eat a lot.
And they waste most of their free time.
Females:
All they can [...]
The Ideological Foundation of the Pro-abortion Movement
In: General
21 May 2010I was considering titling this “the dangers of duplicity,” but I felt that this would not be entirely accurate (you’ll see why later). The reason I originally thought of that title was because of my original inspiration, which was partly some events that triggered me to write this article, and partly a continuing stream of [...]
2010 Senate Race: Pennsylvania and California
20 May 2010As the nation prepares for the 2010 Senate Race, its media companies and organizations follow along with intense coverage. Not to be entirely outdone, I’ve decided to investigate some of the critical races.
The New York Times provides this incredible, interactive graphic, in which it details 6 states as toss-up states, and 3 others as leaning [...]

Elena Kagan-Judicial Activist?
12 May 2010It appears that Elena Kagan will be the first nominee of President Obama for the opening Supreme Court seat, and therefore we must seek to understand better exactly what she will bring to the Supreme Court if approved.
The news is currently flooded with articles about her right know, but I chose to investigate this one [...]

Who is the Pro-Life Movement?
In: Foundations|General
15 Apr 2010After a seemingly unending string of back-room deals, the House Dems narrowly passed the Senate’s healthcare proposal, which mandated tax-funded abortion for the first time in our nation’s history. Despite the President’s promise that his executive order would ban funding of abortion from the legislation, prominent pro-life groups immediately denounced it as meaningless. [...]

Rep. Bart Stupak, D-MI Not Running for 10th Term
In: General
12 Apr 2010[Source]
After 18 years of service in Congress as one of the few pro-life Democrats, Bart Stupak will not be running for a tenth term in the House. “Last month, we finally accomplished what I set out to do 18 years ago — we passed comprehensive national health care reform,” he said at a press [...]
It has taken nearly a year for President Obama to push his “health-care reform” initiative through Congress. And though the polls clearly indicate that the most Americans oppose this legislation, it appears that House Democrats are pushing for final vote by this Sunday. In addition to deciding the fate of health-care reform, [...]
