Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Barack Obama is drawing gasps from pro-life advocates today over comments he made during a campaign stop in Pennsylvania over the weekend. The leading Democratic presidential candidate appeared to back a potential decision by his daughters to seek an abortion saying he wouldn't "punish" them with a baby.

Obama's remarks are likely to add another reason to the list pro-life advocates are developing as to why he won't get their vote this November.

I’m aghast that so many are “surprised” by this position. Of course he’d support it.

I just hope America isn’t “punished” by an Obama presidency. Then again, if that’s what the sheeple want, then that’s what the sheeple will get.

“Punish”?

Hope enough of the real Obama gets through the media filter before America elects this disaster.

What he said was he wouldn’t deny information - he could easily have been talking about birth control/barriers since he also mentioned STDs.

Does anyone gasp
at anything supporters
say of abortion?

I mean, we all know
they support killing babies.
Words don't make it worse . . .

Yeah, kinda the way I gasped when McCain said similar things in debate with Alan Keyes in 2000.

Well Obama would be OK with killing it even after it is born, at least according to his record on this issue.

But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby," Obama said.

He's not just talking about information. He's saying that "if they made a mistake" he would want to be able to -- ahem -- fix the problem.

No, of course not.

Instead, punish the baby with a death sentence.

That makes so much more sense.

So, the gift of life from The Almighty is now punishment?

I have been saying this for a long time here on FR: I think the guy is the Anti-Christ.

God save us from this miscreant.

“The so-called right to abortion. . . has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the father’s role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts—a child—as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience.”
—Mother Teresa of Calcutta

He regrets Terri S. vote in Senate and votes against the Baby Born Alive Bill. He places little value on life

His 18-year old mother was saddled with a baby too. And a series of fathers. And an ungrateful brat.

“Don’t Punish Them With a Baby”

HOW SICK our society has become when somebody can even THINK something like this.

A child is a GIFT - from GOD - not a “punishment”.

Germany was punished by Hitler’s rise too.
