The Obama’s on Partial Birth Abortion

Michelle and Barack Obama

Michelle Obama wrote in a 2004 fund-raising letter that the federal ban on partial-birth abortions “is clearly unconstitutional” and “a flawed law.”

Even though this barbaric procedure involves delivering the head of a fully-developed infant in the second or third trimester, piercing the baby’s skull, and sucking her brains out, Barack Obama’s wife describes it as “legitimate” medicine. She wrote further that,

“The fact remains, with no provision to protect the heath of the mother, this ban on a legitimate medical procedure is clearly unconstitutional and must be overturned.”

She went on to say that the Bush administration should not encourage the abortion practitioners who sued to reverse the ban to drop their lawsuit to make it unconstitutional. Obama told prospective donors that they could “count on” Barack to “keep the Bush team from appointing the Supreme Court justice that will vote against Roe v. Wade.”

I can only conclude that if elected president, Barack Obama and the First Lady would allow the horror of Partial Birth Abortion to continue in the USA.  The Obama’s would support late-term, tax-funded abortion on demand, for any reason, at any time, and for minors, without parental consent.

Sorry, I just can’t accept that.

Universal Values?

“Democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific, values. It requires that their proposals be subject to argument, and amenable to reason. I may be opposed to abortion for religious reasons, but if I seek to pass a law banning the practice, I cannot simply point to the teachings of my church or evoke God’s will. I have to explain why abortion violates some principle that is accessible to people of all faiths, including those with no faith at all.” – Barack Obama in a  2006 speech

Wow! Really? Yikes!
