On Monday, justice was served in Philadelphia when a monster by the name of Dr. Kermit Gosnell was convicted of the murder of three small babies in his abortion clinic. Each and every life is precious, Mr. Speaker, and murdering an innocent baby for the sake of convenience or greed is terribly, terribly wrong. In the last 40 years, Mr. Speaker, the lives of over 50 million young babies have been taken. How do we know that God did not place in the lives of these individuals a cure for cancer, a cure for Alzheimer's, a cure for Parkinson's? We won't know that until eternity. We grieve over those losses. May I quote Thomas Jefferson, Mr. Speaker, for the sake of our Nation: God, who gave us life, gives us liberty. Can liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are a gift of God? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever. ____________________
