Collins Report

BY Kevin “Coach” Collins

George Bush has often disappointed us, but on Inauguration Day he’ll give pro lifers reason to smile.
Pro death liberal Gays are running around screaming over a parting shot at them taken by the outgoing president. The administration has enacted an executive order that shields pro lifers from being forced to participate in abortions or fertility procedures on lesbians against their consciences. That’s the good news. The better news is the order takes effect on January 20, 2009 just in time to welcome America’s most pro death president.
The Gay Community is in an uproar over this move. They are crying hysterically about the possibility of even janitors in Catholic hospitals refusing to sweep up their areas because the hospital does abortions or inseminates a lesbian. They think that would be terrible. Boo Hoo!
This order combined with Obama picking Rick Warren to officiate at his Inauguration will force Gays to put enormous pressure on him to immediately reverse this order. I hope he does. The quicker America sees the real Barack Obama the quicker we can start building the necessary coalition to defeat his agenda. An immediate reversal ought to do the trick.
Because they are amoral liberals who believe the only motivator to human behavior is money, liberal Gays will pressure their pro death buddies in the Democrat Party to pull federal funding from “offending” hospitals.
This will raise the stakes in the coming fight over the cynically named Freedom of Conscience Act (FOCA). In the Democrat’s bizzaro world, “freedom of conscience” means having no freedom of conscience because FOCA would force health providers to do abortions, even in religious hospitals. The FOCA war will start immediately, and the sooner the better. In November we lost by 7%. Can we change the minds of 4%? “Yes we can!”
The politically active gays believe Obama will reverse Bush’s order. They look forward to a victory over their enemies in the Catholic Church and the Family Research Council. They cry that Bush’s order will cost at least 44 million dollars, as if they are really concerned about the cost of government. Those who confidently predict that there will be no big showdown over the Freedom of Conscience Act (FOCA) ought to think again.
The Gay/Pro death forces are angry and disappointed with Barack Obama’s conduct so far. Asking Rick Warren to give the invocation at his Inauguration ceremonies has been more of a problem for Obama than anyone could have foreseen. Gay marriage supporters from California to New York are turning the heat up, not calming down. FOCA will not be an easy issue for Obama and with the myriad of other problems he faces, he might just “punt” and put its reversal on the shelf for a year or so. After all, the Gay/pro death crowd has no place else to go and both Obama and they know it.
