## Resource

There are certain untouchable topics in American politics, sometimes called "third rail" issues, where if you touch it, your political career is likely done. Medicare and Social Security are examples, and abortion is another. But as Andrew Breitbart famously said, politics is downstream of culture, and the conservative movement is a culture of life. A YouTuber recently posted that he and his wife made the painful decision to terminate their pregnancy when their unborn child was diagnosed with Down's Syndrome. A tough call for any parent. Are they justified in their decision? Or was their unborn child given life by its Creator and should be cherished in spite of the difficulties to follow? The phone lines lit up with heartfelt stories from our loyal callers. What was their verdict? And, author Eric Metaxas as a new book out called "Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World", where he tells the story of the birth of our nation in epic form.
