Billy Long: I wlll continue to fight for the unborn child

In his latest newsletter, Seventh District Congressman Billy Long explains his Adoption Promotion Act.

Each year, many innocent children are not given the gift of life.  In some of these cases, the mother feels that she has no other choice, because she cannot provide for the child.  That is why I have introduced the Adoption Promotion Act.
The Adoption Promotion Act requires that any taxpayer funded family planning services must also provide adoption counseling.  This will provide many women an option that they may not have considered before.
I am pro-life and believe life begins at the moment of conception.  I will still continue fighting for the rights of the unborn child.  This bill is a definite step in the right direction.  Adoption options will be much more accessible to expecting mothers who cannot provide for their child.  Many children will get a chance at life, love, and the opportunity for a promising future with a loving family.

Did he support gutting the farm bill which resulted in millions of children having their food benefits cut? I hate the politicians who stop caring about the child once he/she is born. I don't believe any politician who claims protecting a fetus is something he actually cares about. What he cares about is getting the vote from the people who actually do believe passionately about this subject.

First of all, I consider Blubba Long to be a poster child FOR abortion. Now the real question is how many Crack Babies has that Bastard adopted?

I got this newsletter and am reminded of a series of bills Long sponsored regarding conception. Basically he is against Birth Control-- and this from a guy who has two kids.

If you thought Todd Akin was on the lunatic fringe of the Republican Party, wait til you see some of the bills Congressman Billy Long is co-sponsoring:

H.R. 3 - which redefines rape and removes the exclusion for statutory rape,
H.R. 212 - Life begins at fertilization
H.R. 374 - The Human Life Amendment which affords 14th Amendment rights to fertilized eggs.
