| Our MCFL Convention on Saturday was inspiring. Mark Discher gave a philosophical background on how our society could get to the point where the government thinks it can issue such a thing as the "HHS Mandate". He was mobbed afterwards by people asking for a copy of his presentation. He says he will be happy to email it to you if you ask him at <MDischer@magdalen.edu> Mary Beerworth educated us about Doctor-Prescribed Suicide and the legislative victory in Vermont. The people who were at the Convention were fired up and have started groups designed to reach out to the general public in all possible ways. I'll be sending out more information on how you can get involved. Hadley Arkes actually did the impossible - told us what is likely to happen to O-care at the Supreme Court and what will be the ramifications. He presented more than one likely scenario. Whatever happens we have a much better idea of why and where it will go from there. Hadley loves seeing "old friends" and we love seeing him. We'll be posting pictures and videos of the Convention. I'll let you know. One of the highlights of the Convention was hearing our Oratory Contest winner, Jordan Hubacz. Jordan and his family will be going to the National Right to Life Convention, where he will represent Massachusetts. I know you join me in wishing him great success. Please join the Hubacz family and me at this wonderful NRLC Convention.
