We always hear Democrats preach about choice when it comes to the issue of abortion. However, we never hear them discuss the other side of the coin, choosing life instead of death. We do not hear them condemn criminal acts, such as the defacing of churches or crisis pregnancy centers being firebombed and vandalized by radical progressive activists. If they believe choice is so important, why don't they respect the people who refuse to choose death and instead choose life? Democrats use ``choice'' as a subjective term. They agree with choice as long as you agree with them--choice on their terms. Madam Speaker, Americans overwhelmingly choose life. We would all do well to remember that. ____________________
