Thanks go to our six stalwart Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee who stood firm and voted NO on the Supreme Court nomination of leftist pro-abortion advocate Elena Kagan.

Sens. TOM COBURN (OK), JOHN CORNYN (TX), CHUCK GRASSLEY (IA), ORRIN HATCH (UT), JON KYL (AZ) and JEFF SESSIONS (AL) voted the conscience of the Republican Party, while their GOP counterpart, Lindsey Graham (SC) not only voted with the Democrats on the Committee, but even praised the nominee as a good choice by the President! This "good choice" is the person who advocated for partial-birth abortions and even attempted to manipulate medical statements which did not support the gruesome procedure. So it's hardly a good choice for any pro-lifer.

Graham apparently chose to turn his back on his previous commitment to the pro-life cause in supporting this nominee. And since his vote would not have changed the outcome of the committee's vote (13-6), pro-lifers are very puzzled and angry about his public disregard for life in casting that vote.

The next battle in this nomination process will come sometime in August on the floor of the Senate, when the nomination will be considered by the full complement of 100 senators. At that time, the Democrats will most likely confirm Kagan easily with their 60 votes. Even with those odds against them, as a matter of principle Republican senators should stand together in opposition to confirming this left-wing lawyer with no judicial background and only three years of actual legal experience.

But that's unlikey to happen, given the addition of turncoat Republicans Richard Lugar (IN) and Susan Collins (ME) along with Graham. None of these three "Republicans" is up for election this year and likely are banking on the voters' short memories regarding their assistance to the Democrats in confirming this radical pro-abortion activist.

Action: Urge your Senator to vote against Kagan's confirmation, and remember the ones who vote with the Democrats.

Your Tax Dollars Promoting Abortion in Kenya's August 4 Election

Why would amending the Kenyan constitution be of any interest to the United States?

Why has some $23 million American tax dollars been spent on this election half-way around the world?

And why is Vice President Biden encouraging a favorable vote on the new constitution, even promising more U.S. aid if it's adopted on August 4?

Dr. Brian Clowes, director of research with Human Life International (HLI) believes that it's a showcase of how pro-abortion activists work.

"They sneaked an article into the Constitution, number 26, which legalizes abortion," he reports to OneNewsNow. "It's completely against the feelings and the faith and the culture of virtually every Kenyan. It's completely a foreign idea to them, killing their own unborn children."

The HLI research director has documented 31 international organizations on the ground in Kenya promoting "population control" — typically used as another term for abortion.

Action: Urge your member of Congress and Senators to ask questions about this use of tax money in the midst of a financial crisis and mounting U.S. debt.
