WASHINGTON, Jan 23 - President Barack Obama on Friday lifted restrictions on U.S. government funding for groups that provide abortion services or counseling abroad, reversing a policy of his Republican predecessor George W. Bush.

In contrast to his executive order to close the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, which he signed in a ceremony before journalists, the president issued this order quietly and the White House released a statement at 7 p.m.

So I guess the promise to be the most transparent adminstration is already just a memory.

No, thanks. Won't have my tax money going there. Perhaps we can get ahold of our representatives and tell them we want to be able to opt out.

See the tagline.

I’ve been wondering how to do exactly that. If President Bush had done something this inflammatory to the left’s “principles”, they’d be out in full force in Washington with signs and banners calling him a killer and the like. That’s what we should be doing. Although I admit we wouldn’t get the media coverage, or at best dismissed as a few “malcontents”, who aren’t falling into line with the Obamassiah’s great and wonderful agenda.

And that's just not for the U.S. but for anywhere in the world.

This is one I didn’t see coming, but I wasn’t aware of it until just today. It figures he’d do this. O is digging us into a deeper hole with his lack of regard for human life. Man, we’re screwed as a nation.

Gotta love the guy's priorities. Our economy is in shambles, but we need to squeeze every drop of blood from the stone in order to kill more innocents.

This is coming down to be the “most moral” administration in America according to Obama’s promises.

Give him time, he will kill the economy in due course.

Now the killing of unborn children gives immediate satisfaction.

0bama what a POS.

Can not wait till he pardons a terrorist.

I would suggest people start by doing what they can do. Everyone can write to his representative.

imagine what would happen if enough people did.

A little history:

The First thing Peanut head did as President was give amnesty to all the draft dodgers. Maybe it needed to be done...but, the first item? Many of us thought we had just been given the bird by that horrible little human being.

The first thing BO did was to shut down terrorist prisons and lift funding restrictions on abortions. TV beheadings of white American citizens is still OK.

The first thing Reagan did as President, he didn't have to.
After promising the world that 10 seconds after he was sworn in, Iran would would have the crap beaten out of it and the hostages that Carter had deserted would be freed.....Iran freed the hostages minutes before Reagan took the oath.

Without a doubt, obama is a disciple of Satan.. My truck has a McCain and retired Army sticker on it and has been vandalized repeatedly by the democrats. Tonight the democrats and followers of obama vandalized my truck again even though they won. I refuse to take McCains sticker off my truck in spite of Satans followers. God help our country
