Adding to Susan Doria's Nov. 6 comments on the ramifications of abortion, including infanticide, additional statistics and future effects are as follows:

* Since the Supreme Court legalized abortion in 1973, nearly 50 million unborn children have been murdered.

* Supreme Court Justice Stevens is 88 and is expected to be replaced during the first term of President Obama.

* Obama's clear position on abortion will directly result in the selection of a liberal judge thus retaining the 5-4 imbalance of the court favoring abortion.

* The Supreme Court will continue with Roe v. Wade as the law of the land for perhaps another 35 years with other justices replaced during Obama's tenure of eight years.

* The impact of Obama will add possibly another 50 million unborn children murdered in the next 35 years with the expected liberal Supreme Court.

To quote Mother Teresa: "America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation."
