President Obama has resubmitted his nomination of Dawn Johnsen for Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel. In February, 2009, Obama's nomination of Johnsen, a former lawyer for the pro-abortion group NARAL, was sent to the full Senate for confirmation. Because Johnsen's extreme pro-abortion sentiments created controversy among Senators, no vote was taken during the last legislative session, and the nomination was returned to President Obama. In spite of the Republican gain of the 41st vote in the Senate, ending the Democrat filibuster-proof Senate, President Obama has renominated Johnsen. If confirmed, Johnsen would join an ever-expanding group of pro-abortion activists in the Obama administration. Congressman Chris Smith (New Jersey) commented on Obama's appointments at the Right to Life Convention last summer: "Then there are Mr. Obama’s hundreds of strategic appointments including members of the Cabinet and sub Cabinet and a myriad of program directors and deputies including Dawn Johnsen—a former NARAL lawyer who derisively refers to pregnant women as fetal containers. Personnel is policy. With little fanfare, the Abortion President has stuffed and is in the process of stuffing the federal bureaucracy from top to bottom with some of the most extreme pro-abortionists on the planet. He has embedded smart and savvy pro-abortion people into important gatekeeper positions. Now, in the secrecy of their offices, pro-abortion policies large and small are being hatched and implemented with little or no oversight and billions in grant money will be funneled to abortion activities." (quoted from lifenews.com). This is no time for Christians to stop praying. This administration is not backing down in promoting abortion. Please intercede for our nation before the throne of Almighty God. May He raise up leaders who fear God, honor His word, and walk in His ways.
May God have mercy on our nation.
