David and Samantha Cameron, like Todd and Sarah Palin, embody the center-right belief in family and other forms of voluntary community, as well as in individual freedom and responsibility, in their families. The first child of the Camerons, like the fifth child of the Palins, was special.
Concerning the condition of their first child, David Cameron said, "The news hits you like a freight train ... You are depressed for a while because you are grieving for the difference between your hopes and the reality. But then you get over that, because he's wonderful.” Similarly, this is what Sarah Palin said about her special child, “I’m looking at him right now, and I see perfection. Yeah, he has an extra chromosome. I keep thinking, in our world, what is normal and what is perfect?”
We believe in life, in life in abundance, in human flourishing in matters economic, scientific and cultural. We oppose the agenda of death, of forced abortion, euthanasia, and government ordered “do not treat” lists.
