Voice of the people, my foot. There is a fairly large crowd of pro-abortion protesters assembled outside of the Texas Capitol today. It's worth noting that the numbers tend to be bolstered by paid protesters. Not saying everybody there is getting paid to be there--or that there aren't any pro-lifer there who are paid--but some of us couldn't go to show support for the pro-life bills because we are paid not to be there. It may be argued that we should care enough to skip work for the day: though again, it's not like there was time to put in notice for vacation/leave/etc over this.
Of course, the fact that the capital is one of the most liberal cities in the state tends to skew things, too, as does the propaganda campaign carried out by the largely pro-abortion media. Uncounted are the thousands and millions who will pray not only for the passage of this bill, but also for the end of all abortions.
We may be pessimists, but we are prepared to give an account of our hope. We may be skeptics, but we are ever faithful. We may look down with sorrow on the human condition--but this sorrow begets charity. We are heralds of the dusk, but like watchmen we await the new dawn.
Contra Mozilla

Firefox users we wanted to take this space to let you know what Mozilla, the company that makes Firefox has been doing, and it's not good. Mozilla recently forced its CEO to resign because he had, 6 years ago, donated $1,000 to a pro-family political group. Apparently Mozilla is intolerant of anyone that disagrees with their Liberal/progressive view of politics. To read more please visit WhyFirefoxIsBlocked.com. We aren't blocking Firefox, but we feel it is important to let you know what's going on. For those who are curious, the reason why we are not blocking firefox is that the script to do so also blocks a variety of firefox alternatives, such as IceDragon and others which are similar to firefox and based on the same open-source code. We do think it is important to push back on this issue: for starters, you can leave firefox a comment here. You can also switch to another browser: here are six more free browsers (besides IceDragon) which are supposed to be similar to FireFox (because they are based on the same open-source code) but which are not otherwise affiliated with Mozilla.
