“If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; if thou saysest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not He that pondereth the heart consider it? and He that keepeth thy soul, doth He not knoweth it? and shall not He render to every man according to his works?”
Proverbs 24:10-12
The following testimony of a former Bush Administration staff member reveals the lack of ethics and truthfulness of Senate Democrats in Washington D.C. and provides a reminder of how democrats operate in Salem.
“Sixteen years ago, a colleague of mine on the staff of Senator Hatch discovered that Democrat staff of the Senate Judiciary Committee had negligently placed their documents on our shared server without protections. I admit that we exploited this to learn simple things about their plans to attack Bush judicial nominees at the behest of the left wing interest groups. I also did so pursuant to my duty under the Code of Ethics for Government Service. The documents also revealed unlawful and unethical conduct by Senators. I reported this unethical conduct to the Senate Ethics Committee but never heard back.
Among other things, the staff of Senator Leahy met regularly with outside groups in meetings and allowed them to vote as to which nominee would get a hearing and who would not. As the matter became public in late 2003, the media, coached by Democrat press staff and Senators, focused on the matter as if their documents were “stolen” or “hacked,” instead of on the conduct revealed in them. Senators even abused their power by repeatedly urging the Justice Department to prosecute me, even on the floor of the Senate! Instead, the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York fully investigated the matter and I was fully vindicated. I went on to serve as a United States diplomat in Iraq after obtaining a full security clearance review.
Nothing was stolen or hacked. Republican senators should not continue to surrender their words to those with malign intent.
In 2002 and 2003, I worked with Brett Kavanaugh and many other counsels to confirm the nominations of Bush judges who were being horribly obstructed. Brett Kavanaugh was intently ethical in all my experience with him. He has no worries now. Contrary, to the malign intent of Senators Leahy and Durbin at Senate Judiciary hearings, I can confirm that Brett Kavanaugh knew nothing of the source of any information that we obtained. Nor did I ever meet with him privately nor publicly to discuss it. He is quite right.
Under federal law, the documents in question were supposed to be turned over to the U.S Archives at the end of the 106th and 107th Senates. They are now supposed to be public. I call on Chairman Grassley to ensure that this was done fully. I urge the press to ensure that this was done and to review them. The public has a right to know.”

How does this relate to Oregon?
Remember when Governor Kate Brown signed the bill to expand tax payer funded abortion in Oregon last year? Real “collusion” with “outside groups” to determine the beneficiaries of house bill 3391 was evident. Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers in Oregon were the obvious participants in the plan to increase state funding, and pad their pockets with sure money from the state, and of course… the tax payers, enslaved once again to the left wing legislature’s agenda.
AS a former abortion lobbyist, Brown was delighted to assist. The opposition was – as a matter of course – not consulted. The bill was concocted entirely by pro-choice abortion activist and industry representatives in Portland. So much for bipartisanship in the Oregon legislature. When it came to a vote in both House and Senate, not one Republican voted for this bill.
Kate Brown and all her collaborators made sure the bill would become law upon her signature to avoid immediate challenge by objecting parties. They were all front and center in celebration at the Press Conference for all of their constituents to see. George Soros, who has committed billions to left wing causes in America is one of her financial backers.
The “Winners” And “Losers”
The real ‘winners’ in this bill were abortion providers, not the tax payers; nor women who would pay a mental and emotional price in life, nor those who, for conscience and moral reasons, do not want their tax dollars used to pay for what they consider an unconscionable and horrific act.
Of course, the innocents in the womb who would never see the light of day, a breath of air, the glory of creation, or enjoy even a moment the rest of us cherish, would pay the ultimate price.
Kate and her fellow radical and morally indifferent ideologues in the legislature imposed their will and cut off any public outcry by making this extremely objectionable bill immediately out of reach upon her signature as governor.
The Antidote To Evil – The Citizens
What they did not expect was the commitment of 10,000+ Oregon Life United’s unpaid volunteers and over 550 Oregon churches to gather the required signatures to place this travesty on the November 2018 General Election Ballot. Nor do they think – in their darkened circles of friends and strategists – that it will pass. But it CAN! It SHOULD! And it WILL!
As Christians in Oregon come to understand this is more than a political, moral, or cultural battle… that at its root, it is a serious spiritual battle between God and Satan for authority and dominion over God’s Creation, they SHOULD rise “as one man“, mobilize their collective votes, and strike down this latest assault on God’s Sovereign right to rule and protect His creation.
Measure 106 is now on the November 6th Ballot. It is up to ALL OF US – who by faith and the love of Christ in our hearts – in state, or out, young and old, pastors and boards, wealthy and poor, TO DO all we can with whatever skills or tools we have, and the power of the Spirit of God within us, to mobilize our brethren to ‘speak’ with one voice on November 6th. It is then that HE WILL show His righteous rule.
Please forward this and all Measure 106 related emails to as many people and Christian leaders as you can. Your emails, social media, and word of mouth are our only way to reach the pastors and people of Oregon with the importance of their ACTION, voter registration, and mobilization efforts to Turn Out our VOTERS in support of Measure 106.
Exalt Him Daily.
