“At what point does a baby get human rights in your view?”
Obama said that “whether you are looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade. “
**Obama could not bring himself to state that a baby’s human rights begin at birth!**
Obama could not bring himself to state that a baby’s human rights begin at conception!
There fixed it for you.
Is that really what he said? That’s just a silly response. And he’s running for President?
He was unable to mention any votes he’s made to limit abortion in any way.
Whisky Tango Foxtrot? Did he really that?!
Allen, do you mean that he was afraid to say the liberal line that human rights only belong at 40 weeks post-conception because he knew that religious people of all colors and varieties would disagree with him? He’s afraid to be himself?
A lot of words that mean... "I'm not going to give you an answer"
It’s above his pay grade, and he wants to be President?
“Obama said that “whether you are looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade.”
IOW he voted “Present” again.
“whether you are looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade. “
I guess this is another on the growing list of reasons to despise you barack hussein obama. To vote 3 times to allow a doctor to kill a baby after the abortion failed. Then to lie about it. These people make me sick.
Is this the Indonesian Barry Hussein Soetoro-Obama guy that wants to be President?
He sure doesn’t act like it and seems a bit out of his league/paygrade.
No decision is above the office of the President’s except for those of God.
The President of the USA always has the lives of 350 million people in his hands and should take that seriously and not blow off ANY questions.
Yep..
I sat there yelling “Answer.. ANSWER...!”
then “MAKE him ANSWER!!”
Sigh.
Bammy has No backbone, but the moderator SHOULD have.
I felt like taking a shower after that first half.
On the other hand.. I’ve been somewhat resigned to McCain, but I felt a bit better about it all after watching him tonight. Maybe I won’t have to write Eeyore in after all.
Yes that’s what Obama said
” “whether you are looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade. “
But McCain said thast the human rights of an unborfn baby started...
“at conception”
Obama could not bring himself to state that a baby’s human rights begin at conception!
There fixed it for you.
My point is that Obama is so anti-life that that he can't even bring himself to state what everybody should agree upon: a born baby has human rights. Even those who argue against the humanity or personhood of a pre-born should be able to agree on the humanity of a born baby. It is beyond frightening that he is about to be nominated for the Presidency of this country or even be in the U.S. Senate.
As I recall, he either put forth a bill or voted for a bill in Illinois to allow no medical help to a child that survived a failed abortion. So I’m guessing that he figures that a baby (at least a newborn) does not have any specific rights.
So, not only does he not value human pre-born life, he can’t even answer a question honestly.
He’s pathetic.
Warren got Obama in a pretty good bind with the shrewd wording on this question. It's a subtle variation on the "When did you stop beating your wife?" format. Rick's use of the term baby is the zinger.
LOL!
Obama is a COWARD.
