Why I'm Catholic and voting Barack Obama.
Abortion. That's the big, big problem isn't it? To be honest, it has been the single issue in this election that has continuously nagged at me when making my final decision. I assure you, it hasn't been easy. It has not been a decision that I have made lightly. But if that is the only reason holding me back from voting for Barack Obama, I don't know if I can justify it. There's just so much more to care about and so much more that matters equally. I am pro-life through and through.
I'm pro-life, and it eats away at me that millions of Americans have inadequate health care because they can not afford it. People can not afford to stay alive.
I'm pro-life, and the number of people, both American and not, dying daily oversees because of ignorance and misappropriated blame isn't justified. It's not.
I'm pro-life, and at the rate we're going, we won't have much to live for as we destroy the only resources we have left.
I'm pro-life, and the disenfranchisement of the nation's youth through the education system is depleting the output of intelligence that will one day lead the lives of our children.
I'm pro-life, and can't understand how a person's quality of life or equality of life depends on his or her race, gender or sexual orientation.
And I'm pro-life.
And right now it feels like I have to choose the lesser of two evils. But it doesn't feel like the wrong choice. And nothing has scared me more than idea of the other choice in the Whitehouse in a long time. And whether you agree or not, it doesn't matter now does it? Just go voice your opinion. Let yourself be heard. And we'll talk more on Wednesday...
