Did Obama “Endorse” Kermit Gosnell in Planned Parenthood Speech?
Life News ^ | Steven Ertelt

Did President Barack Obama indirectly “endorse” embattled late-term abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell in his speech to Planned Parenthood today?

Obama ignored Gosnell and made no mention of his murder trial during the speech to the abortion company today, but Billy Valentine, the director of policy and political work for the Susan B. Anthony List, a pro-life group, says that if you take Obama literally at what he said, he should have no problem with what Gosnell did at his “house of horrors” abortion clinic.

During his speech, Obama said “there’s nothing conservative about the government injecting itself into decisions best made between a woman and her doctor.”

But what about the decisions made between the women who went to “Doctor” Kermit Gosnell for late-term abortions that involved him and his staff snipping their necks and spinal cords in what amounts to infanticide? Does Obama oppose government “injecting itself” into those decisions as well? He didn’t answer that, so Valentine is left to wonder:

Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser didn’t go quite as far but chided Obama for ignoring Gosnell and Planned Parenthood’s connection to him. She told LifeNews:

“President Obama touts Planned Parenthood as a trusted friend and health care provider to women and girls, but this could not be further from the truth. Planned Parenthood last week admitted to knowing about the conditions inside Kermit Gosnell’s Philadelphia clinic yet chose not to act to help end the killing of newborn babies and butchering of women.

“President Obama blatantly ignored this inconvenient truth about the abortion industry’s horrific lack of oversight, and disparaged the pro-life advocates who wake up each morning with the goal of saving the lives of unborn children and women from the pain of abortion.

“It seems that nothing – not even eyewitness accounts of Gosnell-style conditions in their own clinics – is enough to make President Obama reconsider his unyielding support for Planned Parenthood, which in a single year performed more than 333,000 abortions and received half a billion dollars in taxpayer money. It is no wonder that in introducing him, the first thing Planned Parenthood’s Cecile Richards did was to lavish praise on President Obama for supporting the abortion giant to the point of willingness to shut down the entire government during the continuing resolutions battle.”

On April 18, the Philadelphia Daily News reported that Planned Parenthood knew about the conditions in Gosnell’s clinic, yet did not contact the police or elected officials. According to the Grand Jury Report, the National Abortion Federation also inspected Gosnell’s clinic and despite rejecting his application to join, they too did nothing to report the clinic to the authorities.

“there’s nothing conservative about the government injecting itself into decisions best made between a woman and her doctor.”

But if a woman and her doctor think she should have a mammogram or a colonoscopy or a hip replacement or a bypass, he's perfectly happy to have a government agency decide insurance won't cover it.

Death Eaters, and that's it. Kill preborn babies, kill the handicapped, kill the sick, kill the elderly.

Morgana, I want to thank you for keeping up with all this evil so that you can keep us informed. Awful stories, but they must be heard.

Thank you.

I wonder what he would think about a situation where one of his daughters ended up studying overseas and he did not see her for a bit.

So she gets “punished” with a baby and cannot make up her mind what to do and is embarrassed to tell her parents.

So it gets very late, she gets an abortion, and Obama’s grandchild ends up with a knife in its head. Maybe put in a shoe box. How does all that work?

If that is okay for all the other babies, how does it work with his own offspring?

Everyone should keep in mind that any man that would publicly endorse and support the slaughter of the most innocent amount us is capable of ANYTHING!

During his speech, Obama said “there’s nothing conservative about the government injecting itself into decisions best made between a woman and her doctor.”

Ergo, he also completely endorsed the position of Alisa LaPolt Snow, planned parenthood lobbyist, that the mother and 'doctor' have the right to kill a baby.

This man is such a stinking, steaming pile of crap. God forgive me, but I have such disdain for this person that I cannot bring myself to pray for him nor conjure up one single nice, charitable word towards him. Lord have mercy on me.

Obama is on record saying that government funding of Planned Parenthood is necessary so that his own daughters can use their "services." One might reasonably conclude that he is looking forward to the killing of his grandchildren. He's a sick man.

The democratic party has lost its soul.

I remember arguing with a friend of mine, who's fiercely an Obama supporter, and asked how he could support someone who endorses the killing of the unborn. His response was, "Better that than have them grow up in a home where they are unloved."

I scarcely know where to begin with that kind of statement.

I would begin by saying a society that loves children (i.e. fellow humans) enough to NOT kill them before/right after they are born, is more likely to love them regardless of the circumstances of their conception, or whether or not their birth is “convenient”. To only love that which is convenient or that by which we find some gain, is selfish and evil.

That’s the same reasoning that’s used to justify euthanasia: If a person is not going to be completely satisfied with his life, he’s better off dead. Usually other people, of course ...
