Blogustine reports:
 
There was great excitement in Washington DC today as over 250,000 people converged on the National Mall for a pro-life rally and the 38th annual March For Life. The atmosphere is super-charged every year as young and old alike show their support for overturning the infamous Roe v. Wade court case which legalized abortion-on-demand.

Rep. Mike Pence gave a powerful speech:
 
These are trying times in the life of this nation. Our economy is struggling and our national government is awash in a sea of debt. Amidst these struggles, some would have us focus our energies on jobs and spending.  
We must not remain silent when great moral battles are being waged. Those who would have us ignore the battle being fought over life have forgotten the lessons of history. As in the days of a house divided, America's darkest moments have come when economic arguments trumped moral principles.
A nation that will not stand for life will not stand for long. You know there can be no lasting prosperity without a moral foundation in law.
 
And as to focusing on spending, I agree. Let's start by denying all federal funding for abortion at home and abroad.
