As George Will noted in a column, "Eugenics by Abortion," abortion of Down syndrome children has become part of an insidious quest for a "disability-free society." (web site) Will has a personal interest in this debate and has written (web site) about the ongoing attack in America on a whole "category of citizens"?those with Down syndrome. The elderly could be the next in line. After all, why else did Democratic Party moneybags George Soros initiate a $45 million "Project on Death in America" and promote euthanasia and assisted suicide? (web site)
Palin is a target and possibly in harm's way because she is being perceived as someone who can take a bold stand against George Soros and his nightmare vision and turn the country around on such critical issues.
Evidence of her striking a chord with ordinary Americans is already starting to emerge. Consider what happened in Washington County, Pennsylvania, when Palin and McCain traveled through on a campaign appearance.
KDKA's John Shumway reported: "A local couple unexpectedly got to meet Vice Presidential Candidate Gov. Sarah Palin and GOP Presidential Nominee Sen. John McCain during their visit to Washington County last weekend. They share something in common with Palin. They also have a child with Down syndrome. In a sea of smiling faces at Consol Energy Park, Kurt and Margie Kondrich, along with their daughter, Chloe, caught the attention of the candidates."
Margie was holding a sign that said, "We (Heart) Kids With Down Syndrome."
McCain and Palin left the bus and met with the family. "They just came up as warm as could be and said 'Hi' and they thanked us for coming," Kurt Kondrich said. Palin asked if she could hold Chloe.
Later, Palin brought down Trig, their child with Down syndrome, from the bus. "I got to see him," said Margie. "It was very emotional for me but I was very proud of him and my daughter and I kissed him on his chubby little face. I actually told her that her son was beautiful and that they would all be fine and it's a lot of work but they are very blessed with having a child with Down Syndrome."
Other than Shumway's story on KDKA, I didn't see this reported anywhere else. It seemed like a story with a human touch. (web site)
But perhaps you now understand that the media want to demonize, not humanize, Palin. The hatred is showing through, but it is not having the desired effect. Instead, people are reacting with admiration for a woman who has demonstrated compassion and love in her life.
