Dear President Obama,<\/p>\n

You and I don’t always see eye to eye. And yet, when I watched your incredibly moving speech<\/a> on saving the lives of children, I saw your pain. I believe it’s real because I’ve felt that pain, too.<\/p>\n

You said, “Every time I think about those kids, it gets me mad.” When I think about dead kids – kids who had their whole lives ahead of them if they’d just been given the chance to live – I get mad, too.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I get mad when defenseless little first graders are shot. My niece will go to a new school next year, as a first grader. And I grew up in Colorado during Columbine.<\/p>\n

But, Mr. President, I also get mad when other defenseless children are killed. Children like him:<\/p>\n

\"6<\/a>I get mad when children like these ones aren’t seen as the valuable human beings they are; when they aren’t given the chance to live an incredible lifetime, full of beautiful potential.<\/p>\n

Mr. President, I’m angry with you.<\/p>\n

I’m also not convinced a bullet is the only violent weapon that kills our children in this nation. There are other weapons that look pretty scary to me – regardless of the fact that it’s often a doctor who uses them to rip tiny boys and girls to pieces<\/a>, or to suction them out until their spine collapses<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Abortion-Instruments,<\/a>Would a bullet make it any worse? Would it make abortion less acceptable? I believe its the killing of innocent children that’s unacceptable, not only the weapons that are used.<\/p>\n

\"Abortion<\/a><\/p>\n

Mr. President, you are right that “all of us need to demand a Congress brave enough to stand up” to lies. And right now, at this moment in history – a moment you stand guard over – we have a Congress brave enough. This Congress has stood up to the lies of the abortion lobby.<\/p>\n

\"NewDefundAd3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They’ve declared, based on the evidence<\/a>, the statistics, the science<\/a>, and the facts, that Planned Parenthood is a corrupt organization<\/a>. Planned Parenthood is an organization that preys upon vulnerable women, lies to<\/a> and deceives women<\/a>, refuses to rescue minor girls out of abusive situations – despite the law,<\/a> harvests the body parts of babies they just aborted, aborts babies after they could survive on their own <\/a>outside the womb, kills babies<\/a> who dare to survive abortions, and is continually reducing healthcare services while<\/a> increasing<\/a> its pricey abortions.<\/p>\n
