CNA STAFF, Sep 26, 2008 / 01:06 pm (CNA).- YouTube.com has pulled the complete Spanish version of the pro-life video “The Hard Truth” as presented by Mexican actor Eduardo Verastegui. In the video, the actor informs Hispanic voters about the abortion industry and the position of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

The unedited video, which features graphic images of abortions carried out in the United States, can be seen at www.durarealidad.com.

In the video, Verastegui says Hispanics are the ones most affected by the abortion industry.

“Abortion is not only a lucrative industry; it is also used by people who are racist as a means to eliminate our people, since they consider us to be a threat to democracy in this country,” Verastegui states.
 
“We need to put an end to abortion and political candidates play a very important role in this matter,” he says.
 
“Obama supports abortions performed during the last trimester of pregnancy,” “the inhuman partial birth abortion,” and he wants “to finance abortions with the tax dollars you and I pay,” the Mexican actor points out.
 
He also recalls that “as a lawmaker, Obama voted on several occasions against a law to protect babies who survived an abortion and were born alive.”

“Obama is more interested in maintaining the legality of abortion that in the well-being of the babies, children and families of this country,” Verastegui says. He calls on Hispanics “to unite and do something to defend life at every stage, from conception to natural death.”

CNA's edited version of the video can still be viewed on YouTube.com

Right on, Diane Freeby! And I would add to the YouTube.com staff, "Remember your Guardian Angel is always looking on the face of God. Be careful what you do."

This is unbelievable. This is the direction our country has been headed in for the past 30 years. If Obama wins it will get even worse. He cannot be trusted as he speaks out of both sides of his mouth. On the one side, he goes to Planned Parenthood and tells them he will fight to the death for their right to continue business as usual. On the other, he goes to these foolish, naive groups as "Catholics for Obama" and talks about how he wants all these social programs so that abortion will be lessened. He is a liar! He cannot have it both ways! PRAY!!!!

So much for "free speech". I guess you can exercise free speech, so long as that speech mirrors the prevailing views of the culture and society. The purpose of free speech was envisioned as a way of engaging in debate by the free exchange of views and ideas; only by doing that can one hope to discover the truth. What we have today is lip-service to the notion of debate and discovering the truth, so long as that truth doesn't conflict with the whims of the day.

So let me get this straight...Youtube believes it's ok to run "hate" videos like those showing the repeated desecraton of the Sacred Eucharist, but when someone dares speak the truth of abortion...they have a problem.
"Pray with the heart and surrender yourselves to Jesus in prayer."
