GOP COURT GAVE US ABORTION, SODOMY, & PORN
A Republican Supreme Court Gave America Abortion, Sodomy, And Pornography

Obama has nominated a Supreme Court justice. She will in all likelihood turn out to be pro-abortion and pro-homosexual. Obama is rabidly pro-abortion and pro-homosexual, and birds of a feather flock together.
If you were one of those people who could not bring yourself to vote for the lesser-of-two-evils (have you noticed that the lesser-evil gets more evil every four years?) this past November, you are probably hearing from some of your friends right about now saying – "See, I told you to vote for McCain just so Obama couldn't appoint the next Supreme Court justice."
You may be feeling bad or even pained in your conscience about this – but don't. Historical fact reveals that you would have gotten nothing different with a Republican-appointed justice. The truth is Obama's nominee has the same values as the majority of Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices over the last 40 years.
If you doubt what I am saying, just take a few moments to look at the facts.
1.) The 1973 Roe v. Wade decision was given to us a by a majority of Republican-appointed justices. Six of the seven justices which voted in support of Roe v. Wade were appointed by Republican presidents.
2.) Roe v. Wade has been upheld and legalized abortion maintained by a majority of Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices for the last 36 years. Since the Roe. v. Wade decision, Republican-appointed justices have always been in the majority by a margin of at least 7-2. Currently, 7 of the 9 justices are Republican-appointed.
3.) The 2003 Lawrence v. Texas case which decriminalized sodomy was given to us by a majority of Republican-appointed justices. Four of the six justices which voted in support of decriminalizing sodomy were appointed by Republican presidents.
4.) Remember also, it was a Republican-appointed majority Court which banned school prayer in the 1962 Engle v. Vitale case, and which opened the floodgates of pornography in the 1973 Miller v. California case.
Every four years, Christian people in this nation are stampeded into voting for the Republican presidential candidate based on the mantra - "whoever is elected President will appoint the next Supreme Court justices!" Republicans insist that we must vote for their presidential candidate in order to insure that liberal justices are not appointed to the Supreme Court.
The historical facts however, show that their assertion is absolutely false. When you look at the facts there is not a lick of difference between Obama's nominee and what we have gotten from the Republicans for the last 40 years.
Until Christians take the Republicans to task for this, nothing will change. The Republicans find legalized abortion too politically advantageous to actually outlaw abortion. How then would they be able to keep the Christians in line?
The truth is our nation finds itself in its current state because the people have turned their backs on God and are living in rebellion to him; the pulpits are full of hirelings and whores; and American Christians have embraced a superficial, narcissistic, man-centered Christianity. No political party can remedy this situation. Only the pure preaching of God's Word calling men to repentance and faith in Christ.
