Here’s a picture taken last week of President Obama on the campaign trail. In a rare lack of diligence, his campaign let this image of The Chosen One, less his head but with ol’ reliable ‘prompter in its stead, out into the public domain. Very uncharacteristic of the heavy handed administration and its willing allies in the media to take anything other than a glorification image of the president, much less for something so lowly to get published. But it has and many would argue how appropriate: His inescapable companion, the teleprompter, appearing as a literal appendage to complement its figurative attachment, looking blank and in place of where thoughts normally emanate from humans.
I normally caption all images I include in my blog posts. But I want your help for this one because not even the sky is the limit. Please leave your comments as to what you think the caption of this photo should be. Leave as many choices as you like. The possibilities are endless. The fun immense.

This is the biggest fail of all time. You are terrible. I am so grateful I was able to obtain a safe abortion, it was a painful time filled with anxiety, abuse and emotional pain, thank god I was not forced to bring another unwanted child in to this world. Instead of becoming a poor, jobless & single welfare Mom, I was able to succeed. I pay taxes, I have a non government supplied home and finances. I am mentally stable, financially stable and able to help those less fortunate, instead of becoming an unnecessary drain on society. Motherhood is not for all, we need to protect women and their lives and stop supporting cells. If you’re pro-life, you’re pro-abortion. We need to protect women, actual human beings, actual lives, not embryos. Get help, you need it. Do some research into the struggle of women and the fight for basic rights, like voting. Then start fighting to protect life, actual life, the life of women and girls. I wish you the best in educating yourself.
There’s forgiveness and healing for what you did to your child. Never forget that Christ died for you and He loves YOU; but you will pay a horrible price for what you’ve done UNLESS you receive His free gift of forgiveness. Sin is a facination that ends in assasination. It has an arrogant opinion void of value, of hope and peace; it is a hater bent on destoying. YOU were made for better and YOU can be so much more than the hole that has opened beneath you. Ask forgiveness, take Him by the hand and He will lift you out of the hell you created for yourself.
Wow, the right to vote is equivalent to the right to abortion!
This might interest you. Not sure how long ago you made the clearly great bargain you did to enjoy a rich fulfilling life at the expense of your own child but the original plaintiff in Roe V Wade actually found her richness in life after she changed her view on abortion. But then, maybe she just doesn’t understand what’s truly important in life.

Dear ProActualLife,
Your arguments are so disconcerting on so many levels. You have based your entire argument on the fact that having a job, money and other physical possessions that society deems successful is real success. The sad thing is that without life, all of that means nothing. You are able to have those opinions because your mother gave you life. There are so many people born by cash-poor single parents who grow up to bless society. The only reason they do so is because their mother decided to carry them to term and give them a chance. Thinking that if you had a baby you’d be poor and dependent on welfare is a very narrow way of thinking. It speaks of hopelessness. Your basic assumption is false. There are many other things I could say about that assumption but at the moment, I just want to speak HOPE into your life. Real Hope, that only Jesus Christ is able to give. Christ in us the HOPE of Glory.
I love you and pray that you’ll experience the joy of this hope before you leave this earth realm.
