MEDIA ADVISORY, September 1 /Christian Newswire/ -- In addition to announcing a Tuesday press conference, Randal Terry makes the following comments on the recent Palin statement:

 

"We honor the courage and consistency of the Palin family. May God give long life to this baby, and a long happy life together for the young couple.

 

"We leave it to the average American to contrast the Palin family's love of Life with the words of Senator Obama, who said if his daughters got pregnant, '...if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby...'

 

"Babies are a blessing, not a punishment."
