Ever since Barack Obama emerged on the national political scene he has been promoted and protected by a corps of preachers and religious leaders who have tried their best to explain that he is not so pro-abortion as he seems. Nevertheless, his record is all too clear — as is this most recent statement. There was not one expression of abortion as a national tragedy, even as a report recently indicated that almost 60 percent of all pregnancies among African American women in New York City end in abortion.Amen. Read the rest.
How can any President of the United States fail to address his unspeakable tragedy? There was no hope expressed that abortion would be rare, only the expression that he would remain “committed to protecting this constitutional right.” The only words that even insinuate any hypothetical reduction in abortion were addressed to reducing “unintended pregnancies” and promoting adoption. But no goal of reducing abortion was stated, or even obliquely suggested. No reference at all was made of the unborn child. There was no lament — not even a throw-away line that would cost him nothing in terms of his support from abortion rights forces.
These words were not imposed upon this President. This is his own personal statement. It is one of the most revealing — and tragic — statements made by any political figure in our times.

Suicide is illegal and immoral. Cigarettes are socially accepted by "educated adults," even with the warning that it is "slowly killing you." I am so against abortions, but, sorry there's a but...without legal safe abortions, we would leave women in the hands of the backstreet butchers. Our goal as Christians should be to educate first "ourselves" on the right to choose life and not abortion for our own children. The very people that are opposing Obama are the very people who have either had an abortion or taken their daughters for abortions. Hypocrites.
Please don't be anonymous in the future or I'll just delete the comment.
Do you have any data to back up your assumptions?
Just because some women will pursue "backstreet butchers" do you really think that ALL women will? Just because some women will be crazy enough to pursue this tactic, don't you think it would be reasonable to assume that thousands would not?
Just because some parents are going to be crazy enough to murder their own children as toddlers with a gun, does that mean we should make it more "safe and legal" and allow doctors to do it by lethal injection?
