Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- A party convention is a great place to expose your message to some of the top political leaders and the country and pro-life advocates took advantage of that at this week's Democratic convention. On two occasions, they drove home the pro-life perspective for Michelle Obama, wife of the pro-abortion presidential candidate.
During a woman's political caucus on Thursday, three women who have had abortions and regret their decisions gave Obama an eye opener.
During her speech to the Democratic group, the four women walked briskly to the front of the room. Each of them sported T-shirts saying either "I Regret My Abortion" or "Abortion Hurts Women."
According to an AP report, the four women talked in unison as they made their way to the podium where Obama stood.
"Abortion hurts women. We need to support women. It's not a Republican or Democratic issue," they said.
The women were eventually drowned out with chants of "Obama!" from the audience and security officials led them away -- but not before they got their point across to the candidate's wife, who strongly supports partial-birth abortions.
Meanwhile, as Michelle Obama and her entourage left their hotel on Tuesday afternoon, they were confronted with huge images of aborted babies on the sides of large rental trucks operated by Operation Rescue.
Driver Bob Rothlisberger reports that Obama stared at the trucks for several seconds and had to have gone away from the encounter with a visual of what happens to unborn children in an abortion.
"This is one of the reasons why it is so important for us to be at events like the DNC," Operation Rescue president Troy Newman told LifeNews.com.
Otherwise, "I doubt if we would ever get the opportunity to show Mrs. Obama the reality of what her husband's extremist support for abortion really means, in human terms.
"A picture's worth a thousand words, and she definitely got the message today," he said.
"It is important for the Obamas to understand the very tragic consequences of their support for abortion. We pray that this encounter affects her on a very deep level and gives her more compassion for the innocent lives that are brutally and inhumanely killed by abortion," said Newman.
I think they understand, they just don't care.

I hope the RNC convention has a parade of abortion survivors.
Norma McCorvey and Jill Stanek as speakers would be good too.
And I hope they don’t forget to mention how much money the abortion mills get for baby parts. I saw it listed somewhere once but don’t recall where. I was sickened.
Michelle Obama, and her husband, are children of hell. No one who still had a soul could support partial birth abortion or live-birth abandonment. By their fruits ye shall know them.
Thank the Lord for these brave, strong women who have made such a serious error, who went on to repent and who are willing to risk so much for the cause of human life.
Driving thorough Chicago one day, I saw one of those trucks. It really is brutal. I hope she got the full effect.

HOW CAN THESE PEOPLE SEE, LOOK AWAY, AND SUPPORT IT HAPPENING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THAT IS THE GREATEST EVIL.
I am so proud of those women and the trucks were a fantastic idea!

The Killer B’s: Biden - Barack
>>I think they understand, they just don’t care.
Obomanation’s words:” If would not want my daughter to suffer for a mistake”
Earth to Mt. Obamama - 2+2=5 is a mistake. Abortion is murder.
Why force society to fix their screw ups?
“I am so proud of those women and the trucks were a fantastic idea!”
God Bless Them.
Pray for the unborn.
This woman(MO)supports partial birth abortions, why are they acting as if it is only BHO that supports abortions? Hey, if they don't want abortionists in the WH then they had better not elect this POS in November. There is no way they are going to change the gruesome twosome's minds.
