Wallace calls on Kirk to vote to defund Planned Parenthood

July 24, 2009 For Immediate Release Contact: Eric M. Wallace (708) 675-9669 Eric M. Wallace, candidate for US Senate in Illinois, challenges US Rep. Kirk to repudiate his pro-abortion votes and vote yes on the Pence amendment. Wallace declares, "Today, there is an opportunity to save lives, and taxpayer money in these hard economic times by defunding Planned Parenthood. It's time for government to stop using taxpayer dollars to kill future taxpayers. Planned Parenthood, and other abortion facilities, are single-handedly responsible for the steady reduction in the number of potential persons who would otherwise be contributing to the economic growth and tax base of our country," said Wallace. He challenges US Senate opponent Mark Kirk to vote for the Pence amendment, which states "None of the funds made available under this Act shall be available to Planned Parenthood for any purpose under title X of the Public Health Services Act." This amendment is part of the Labor/Health and Human Services Appropriations Bill, which passed successfully through the House Rules Committee late Thursday. The bill is set for a vote today in the house. "A 'yes' vote from Kirk would begin to reconcile his previous voting record in support of partial birth abortions—and lack of support for parental notification for minors who want abortions. It would be an opportunity for Kirk, who has been on the wrong side of this issue, to finally fight for those who cannot fight for themselves and to stop the genocide that has taken the lives of over 14 million African American babies" Wallace said. Wallace is a 50-year-old magazine publisher and author residing in Matteson, IL. with wife Jennifer.  Wallace is co-chair of the Cook County Republican Party, past chairman of the African-American Republican Council and ran for Illinois Senate in 2006.

Obama regrets choice of words in scholar's arrest - Yahoo! News

Obama regrets choice of words in scholar's arrest - Yahoo! News: "Trying to tamp down an uproar over race, President Barack Obama said Friday he used an unfortunate choice of words in commenting on the arrest of black scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. and could have 'calibrated those words differently.'"

The President was right. The cop acted stupidly. It happens all the time in black communities across America.
