Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Michelle Obama, the attorney wife of pro-abortion Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, is coming under fire for a letter she wrote defending partial-birth abortions.

I wonder at what point Michelle thinks abortion turns into murder? I know her husband voted against a bill while in the Illinois senate that would require doctors to provide medical care to babies that survive an abortion. I'm sure her beliefs and his are very much the same.

Disgusting, both of them.

I don’t get how so many African-Americans enthusiastically support abortion of all kinds.

Simple, people who want to have sex and not have to care for children, tend to support abortion... regardless of the color of their skin.

I certainly won't go so far as to say that sex should be reserved for procreation, but I will say that if you feel strongly enough about NOT having children that you would be willing to kill one in order to avoid having to raise it and care for it, you should abstain from having sex.

Why anyone would be for puncturing a childs skull and sucking the brains out of them in hopes they dont sustain life is beyond me...im thinking partials should be preformed on a few Liberals.

If they want Mrs. Obama from being attacked, she’s got to stop saying “stupid” stuff.

Maybe they're deliberately having her say "stupid" and inflamatory stuff as a way of drawing fire. Gives her husband's campaign another news cycle or two (or three) to play the victim card rather than focus on anything substantive (and Obama looses on substance, mainly because he doesn't have any).

Barack Obama voted against the state version of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act (something that even Hitelry voted for), so his family’s opposition to banning partial-birth abortion is not surprising at all.

..."The fact remains, with no provision to protect the heath of the mother, this ban on a legitimate medical procedure is clearly unconditional and must be overturned,"

So her argument is basically that because abortion is legal, we can't (ever) make it illegal...

Speaking of abortion, not only is constitutional "expert" Senator Obama clueless about Congress spending spending money on constitutionally unauthorized federal spending projects (<-click), his ivy league lawyer wife is evidently just as clueless about major constitutional problems with Roe v. Wade.

This post (<-click) exposes how corrupt justices began using FDR's politically correct license to ignore the 10th A. to unlawfully stifle traditional family values, including the USSC's scandalous legalization of abortion in Roe v. Wade. Note that the post first references two non-abortion cases in order to show Roe v. Wade in a different, troubling perspective.

Conservatives have to organize and find funding to expose Hussein Obama and his vile wife. It’s obvious that the supposed nominee and the leadership of the GOP are gutless, spineless, and have no gonads to fight. They’ve let Liberals lie, distort, accuse, and commit voter fraud for years.

Most democrats won't care about this, or else they wouldn't be democrats...
