The moral test of government is how it treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the aged; and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy, and the handicapped.

Hubert H. Humphrey

"Surely we can all agree that abortion should be rare and that we should do
all we can to help women avoid the need to face the decision".     Senator
Edward M. Kennedy, 2005. 

(For more details, see the article in the
right hand column  "The New Liberalism")   Let's work together in
2006 to help Senator Kennedy live up to these words by becoming a sponsor of
the Democrats for Life 95-10 Legislative package to reduce the number of
abortions by 95% in 10 years.  His district office in the John F.Kennedy
Federal Building is at 617-565-3170.  His Washington office is at
202-224-4543.    Or just follow this link

It is my personal feeling that the legalization of abortion on demand is not in accordance with the value which our civilization places on human life. Wanted or unwanted, I believe that human life, even at its earliest stages, has certain rights which must be recognized—the right to be born, the right to love, the right to grow old.
Senator Edward Kennedy in 1971 expressing his views on abortion in a letter dated August 3, 1971
