The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Mother Teresa in 1979 for everything that she had done to help those in need. Mother Teresa was a staunch critic of the [[United Nations]] pro-abortion agenda who abhorred injustice to the unborn. In May 2007, the U.S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's Presidential Election committee released a video targeted to manipulate [[Roman Catholic]] voter sentiment; the video is narrated by her husband, former U.S. President [[Bill Clinton]]. A Catholic spokesmen has responded to what has been viewed as cynical manipualtion by the Democratic candidate,
{{Cquote|It is wholly inappropriate, disrespectful and disturbing that [[Hillary Clinton]] is using an image of blessed Mother Teresa as a political tool, especially given their radically different views on abortion,”
“Mother Teresa tirelessly fought to protect unborn children, while Hillary Clinton staunchly supports [[abortion]] on demand in all nine months of pregnancy, including [[partial birth abortion]] and taxpayer funding of abortion.”}}
The video contains an image of Hillary and blessed Teresa and then goes to a clip of the former first lady’s address at the 1995 Beijing Conference, where a push was made to declare abortion a fundamental “[[human right]].” <ref>[http://www.fidelis.org/gw3/articles-news/articles.php?CMSArticleID=1456&CMSCategoryID=10 Fidelis Covered by Catholic News Agency on Mother Teresa Video Controversy], ''Catholic News Agency,'' 05-18-2007.</ref>
