Tea at Trianon: Hillary and Partial-Birth Murder

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

Hillary and Partial-Birth Murder

It is not that hard to figure out that killing a viable infant is a bad thing to do. You don't have to be a religious person to see that it is an abomination. Even people with no morals or principles but only the natural feeling of protection for infants should be able to see that killing babies is evil and shows a lack of basic humanity. Why are we even discussing this? How can this be considered a "conservative" issue or even a "Catholic" issue.? This is a human rights issue that pervades all creeds, religions, and races. People who support Hillary are going against the most basic law of nature and grace. Infanticide is an ugly things and a sign of a civilization in decline. And yet people who claim to be Christian are supporting Hillary!

And if you will not put your faith in action by voting pro-life, because Trump is not St Michael the Archangel, then believe, there are very few American presidents you would have considered voting for. George Washington bought and sold human beings. Thomas Jefferson bought and sold human beings. So did James Madison. So did Ulysses Grant. And believe me most of the others had their own unique peccadilloes, including the only Catholic president, JFK! But none of our presidents believed it was fine to kill unborn babies at 7, 8, 9 or nine months along! And none of them had sold their political office for millions and millions of dollars!! Like Hillary. Anyone who helps Hillary to win because Trump is too yucky for them to vote for should just give up on America. Which is basically what you are doing! From The American Spectator:

Honestly, whatever the differences are, whatever egregious felonies Hillary has committed, her answer on partial birth abortion should not just disqualify her as a candidate, it should disqualify her from the human race. And again I’m a so-called progressive on many social issues, and I’ve had a huge problem with many on the right for years on their stances on abortion and gay rights, but just as I will never capitulate on Israel I will never capitulate on partial birth murder. Honestly, I’m dumbfounded and flabbergasted that people are okay with breaking this both written and unwritten rule. One more time, Donald Trump broke some unwritten rule that most of us didn’t even know about — and how would we, since for the past 16 years we have heard from Al Gore and John Kerry and so many Democrats that Bush stole two elections, and here we have Hillary breaking a fundamental ethical rule of society: thou shall not commit murder.

Yes, I know this will not get me invited to many Hollywood parties, but it will definitely allow me to sleep with a clear conscience. All you never-Trumpers, all of you on the right who have decided to take a stand, all you Mormons in Utah who are voting for this Other guy, you have blood on your hands, and I don’t just mean that figuratively. Any vote not for Mr. Trump isn’t voting with your conscience, it’s voting without a conscience. Any person of any faith or any sense of humanity cannot vote for a person who is OK with partial birth murder. I don’t even get how this is an issue.

So if you are bothered with Mr. Trump not answering the question on whether or not he will accept the election results, and you are not bothered by Hillary being OK with murder, then God bless Mr. Trump. God bless him for showing us the bogus rigged system that we have, and God bless him for showing us the hypocrisy of our one party media and our one party government. Whether he wins, loses or draws, Mr. Trump has shown us who he is and who they are and who we are.

Mr. Trump says we are either a nation of rules or we are not, and some rule breaking we can survive. However, I am not sure if Hillary gets elected and gets the nominations on the Supreme Court of her choice that we can survive. Yes, we will survive as a people; I’m just not sure we will survive as humans. Some laws and some traditions when pressed and broken might not just lead to us killing each other; they just might lead to us killing ourselves. (Read more.)
