    On the 45th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we recognize Sanctity of Human Life Day. Today reminds us of our responsibility to protect the right to life for all Americans, including defenseless unborn children.pic.twitter.com/HO8NhZzSJY

        "One of the most durable myths in recent history is that the religious right, the coalition of conservative evangelicals and fundamentalists, emerged as a political movement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling legalizing abortion."

        "The tale goes something like this: Evangelicals, who had been politically quiescent for decades, were so morally outraged by Roe that they resolved to organize in order to overturn it."

        "But the abortion myth quickly collapses under historical scrutiny. In fact, it wasn’t until 1979—a full six years after Roe—that evangelical leaders, at the behest of conservative activist Paul Weyrich, seized on abortion not for moral reasons, but as a rallying-cry.....

        "...a rallying cry to deny President Jimmy Carter a second term. Why? Because the anti-abortion crusade was more palatable than the religious right’s real motive: protecting segregated schools."

        "Today, evangelicals make up the backbone of the pro-life movement, but it hasn’t always been so. Both before and for several years after Roe, evangelicals were overwhelmingly indifferent to the subject, which they considered a 'Catholic issue.'"

        1971: delegates in St. Louis passed a resolution: “Southern Baptists to work for legislation that [allows]....abortion under.....rape, incest, clear evidence of severe fetal deformity, &...evidence of [likely] damage to emotional, mental, & physical health of the mother.”

        "So what then were the real origins of the religious right? It turns out that the movement can trace its political roots back to a court ruling, but not Roe v. Wade."

        Seems like Sanctity of Human Life Day is a good time to vote for CHIP funding.

        Every day and nearly every tweet seems to expose Mr Lahood to being more extreme right wing than the previous ones.

        How about protecting their mothers? You are still not listed as a co-sponsor of H.R. 1318. Do you not recognize the sanctity of the lives of women?
