If you read the comment on my Monday blog you saw where my former all-star editorial assistant, Tanya Carden, wrote about Red Envelope Day. Red Envelope Day is a pro-life effort asking thousands (millions?) of people to send a red envelope to President Barak Obama at The White House on March 31, 2009 in support of the victims of the abortion holocaust.
