"Right-Wing Right to Lifers".....
Edited on Sat Jun-14-08 11:09 AM by RazBerryBeret
I'd like to get this message out to the crazy R2L's and Evangelicals who voted for Bush solely on the Abortion issue. How does this make you feel knowing that THIS is what you voted for:

FALLUJAH, Jun 12 (IPS) - Babies born in Fallujah are showing illnesses and deformities on a scale never seen before, doctors and residents say.

The new cases, and the number of deaths among children, have risen after "special weaponry" was used in the two massive bombing campaigns in Fallujah in 2004.

After denying it at first, the Pentagon admitted in November 2005 that white phosphorous, a restricted incendiary weapon, was used a year earlier in Fallujah.

In addition, depleted uranium (DU) munitions, which contain low-level radioactive waste, were used heavily in Fallujah. The Pentagon admits to having used 1,200 tonnes of DU in Iraq thus far.

Many doctors believe DU to be the cause of a severe increase in the incidence of cancer in Iraq, as well as among U.S. veterans who served in the 1991 Gulf War and through the current occupation.

"We saw all the colours of the rainbow coming out of the exploding American shells and missiles," Ali Sarhan, a 50-year-old teacher who lived through the two U.S. sieges of 2004 told IPS. "I saw bodies that turned into bones and coal right after they were exposed to bombs that we learned later to be phosphorus.


"The most worrying is that many of our women have suffered loss of their babies, and some had babies born with deformations."



This makes me sick at my stomache....this is only going to get worse.

2. Right-to-Lifers: their concern for life begins at conception and ends at birth.
They are really YOYOs because after birth their motto is: You're On Your Own.
