Governor, Speaker Betray Kansas Citizens

It reads like the beginning of a sleazy novel involving sex scandals mixed with political intrigue, but in reality it is a verbatim quote from the Kansas Supreme Court decision rendered in the 1994 case, Kansas v. Melvin Neufeld.

Dear Friends,

PLEASE take seven minutes from your day to read THIS IMPORTANT ARTICLE by my friend Cheryl Sullenger in Wichita. Then PRAY for Wichita, for Kansas, and for our nation. Corruption like this can only earn judgment from God.

Melvin Neufeld (pictured) is the Speaker of the House in Kansas who formerly professed to be "pro-life" and yet, in the last three months, has blocked the biggest criminal prosecution against any abortionist in U.S. history since Roe v. Wade.

The week before Christmas 2006, Kansans saw 30 criminal charges filed against third-trimester abortionist George Tiller (punishable with up to 30 years in prison). The next day, Tiller's cronies in the courts threw out the charges. You might remember Bill O'Reilly talking about this.

With the advent of a new Attorney General bought and paid for with Tiller's political-action-committee funds, and a long-time pro-abortion radical in the Governor's mansion, Kansas citizens turned to House Speaker Neufeld requesting a House vote commanding the new Attorney General to prosecute the case against Tiller (this is a provision in Kansas law). Neufeld's stalling, lies, and (ultimately) outright opposition aborted the effort when the final day of legislation closed with no vote on the issue in the Kansas House.

Bill O'Reilly talked about Kansas and the huge blackout campaign last Wednesday and Thursday on his Factor as well as Thursday on the radio. (Open this video link with Windows Media Player.) Because Neufeld abdicated his responsibility, other representatives passed a different piece of legislation, but Kansas Governor Sebelius vetoed the measure.

How can a country call itself civilized and let this kind of evil flourish?

Sincerely,

Karen Myers
