Washington, DC -- While some Barack Obama backers are hoping to provide cover for his pro-abortion positions by saying he will advocate better health care, the Obama campaign is coming under criticism for refusing to say whether his governmental health care plan will require Americans to pay for abortions.

Obama, who supports unlimited abortions throughout pregnancy for any reason, previously told Planned Parenthood his plan would include tax-funded abortions.

Of COURSE it includes abortion. Obama is the most anti-life candidate to ever come down the pike.

Just another reason to ask:

"What else is 0bama lying about?"

Of course it does. Abortion is one of the sacraments of the left and Barry O has a 100% lifetime rating from NARAL.

“The Obama campaign won’t say.” Just add that to the list of things he simply won’t say/admit to/explain and so on. All bluster, no muster.

The second holocaust is the infanticide he advocates.

Well duh... it’s IN the DNC Platform this year:

“regardless of ability to pay”

That means that you and I will be paying to kill babies because they are a “punishment” to the person desiring not to be inconvenienced.

Hmmmm...well, I am getting to the point where I think I would support a “taxation without common sense representation” revolt (must be the fighting Irish of my heritage).

Of COURSE it does. Even “conservative” Mitt Romney’s wonderful plan in Taxachusetts included taxpayer subsidized $50 abortions.

Obama will probably pay people a bonus to abort their kids. We wouldn’t want to see anyone punished with a baby, after all.

What I have a problem with is the (biblical) requirement to submit to authority, including governmental authority, in all things,

except when that authority commands you to violate God’s commands.

And paying to kill an innocent baby is definitely violating God’s commands.

One out of four hospital beds are in America are in a building with the word Saint on it. How is Barack going to deal with us?

I think a LOT of us have a problem with this. You know, we often rip the so-called Republican conservatives when they tend to back down or not fight adequately for sound principles. Perhaps not enough of of us have been willing to fight even MORE on this issue and a few others? I think that we may have to do a LOT more or.... risk losing a lot more.

As I see it, there is a profound and well organized attack on the pillars of this nation. Since this attack has spiritual roots, it will take both human effort and Divine assistance to overcome it. However, such EFFORT is a necessity.

Interesting you mentioned abortion. It wasn’t brought up by Brokaw (surprise) in last night’s debate. Can’t have another gaffe by the Chosen One.

It depends on just how much what goes on in those buildings models their saints.

Brokaw knows that recent public opinion and scientific evidence are turning more people against abortion.

OF COURSE IT DOES.

Obama has already promised that if the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) crosses his desk as President that he will sign it. Right now it's in Congress, and the Dems will pass it in a heartbeat if 'that one' gets elected.

FOCA would overturn EVERY pro-life measure passed in the wake of Roe v. Wade.

Abortion, part of the Dem's view of normal medical care, becomes a "right" funded by health care that is a "right."
