Obama the first Pro-Abortion President

Please read this article. Written by a professor at Princeton who is a member of the President’s Council on Bioethics. It’s a crushing blow to pro-lifers who have tried to justify a vote for Obama. I have listened to well intentioned and intelligent people try to argue in their own minds that the next president will have NO effect on abortion, but they couldn't be more wrong.

Here are some things that Obama has vowed to do to support and truly INCREASE abortion:

- Repeal of the Hyde Amendment, which according to NARAL has cut the number of abortions that ‘should’ have occurred in half because it cuts public funding for abortions where the mother’s life is not in danger and that don’t involve rape or incest. This one change alone could mean tens if not hundreds of thousands of additional abortions every year, funded with YOUR tax dollars.

- FOCA : Freedom Of Choice Act. Sounds good doesn’t it. Obama has pledged that he would sign FOCA, which would repeal all limitations on abortions through the entire 9 months of pregnancy.

In essence, FOCA would abolish virtually every existing state and federal
limitation on abortion, including parental consent and notification laws for
minors, state and federal funding restrictions on abortion, and conscience
protections for pro-life citizens working in the health-care
industry-protections against being forced to participate in the practice of
abortion or else lose their jobs. The pro-abortion National Organization for
Women has proclaimed with approval that FOCA would "sweep away hundreds of
anti-abortion laws [and] policies."

- Repealing the Mexico City Policy which will send tax payer dollars to other countries to fund abortions.

- Appoint pro-abortionist judges who will uphold these policies and undo the small amount of progress that we have made under W. Possibly pushing abortion forward for decades to come.

You simply cannot say that the next president will not impact abortion. In reality the next president could very well change the entire debate on abortion. Which way the debate goes may decide on your vote. This isn't a scare tactic. It's reality.
