Obama considered joining military, regrets abortion answer By: Mike Allen September 7, 2008 09:11 AM EST
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) says his answer about abortion at the Saddleback Church forum was “probably” too flip.
During separate televised interviews last month, Pastor Rick Warren asked the two presidential candidates when a baby gets human rights. Obama replied that the question is “above my pay grade,” while Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) won love from the right by saying quickly, “At the moment of conception.”
Now, Obama tells ABC’s George Stephanopoulos in an interview taped for “This Week”: “What I intended to say is that, as a Christian, I have a lot of humility about understanding when does the soul enter into … It's a pretty tough question. And so, all I meant to communicate was that I don't presume to be able to answer these kinds of theological questions.”

Two lies...
Which military?
Hamas?
Soviet Union?
Cuba?
Iran?
Black Panthers?
If Obama would have made a career out of military service, he would have grown up to be Wesley Clark
Last month: Obama replied that the question is “above my pay grade,”
“This Week”: “What I intended to say is that, as a Christian, I have a lot of humility about understanding when does the soul enter into … It’s a pretty tough question. And so, all I meant to communicate was that I don’t presume to be able to answer these kinds of theological questions.”
First of all “when does life begin” is not a theological question, it is a biological question.
Do we really need a president that cannot express himself properly?
What will he tell the Russians or the North Vietnamese after the first N-Bomb hits the US. Well, I didn’t really mean what I said.
Ha ha, Barry is STILL going after Palin - what a maroon!
OBAMBI IN THE MILITARY! OH MY LORD!!! WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP!!
OBAMBI IS A BORN COWARD AND CRYBABY!! HOLD YOUR FIST UP! and he would fall into a crumpled ball of sniveling, sobbing protoplasm, UK!
As Guiliani stated, this pathetic blob has never led anything, not even a two person rendition of Our National nthmn! or the line to the men’s urinal!! Bets are that OBAMBI sits to pee:-)
Uhbamuh probably really meant to answer that it is below his pay grade.
Obama’s pay grade remark reminds of Al Gore’s response to a question about executing a pregnant woman and rather than saying wait until after she gives birth said he would have to get back to questioner the next day.
Yeah, and I hear tell that McCain’s going to join Trinity United Church of Christ.
Gimme a break.
Somehow the good people of this country, Democrat, Republican and Independent alike can still spot a phony.
If Obama would have made a career out of military service, he would have grown up to be Wesley Clark
I doubt if he would have made it past recruit!
“so obama punished his wife at least twice that we know of?”
His two kids are the ones that were not punished, lucky for them.
Michelle is perfectly cabable of punishing herself. I’m sure that, at least prior to her marriage, that she would have no hesitation to abort her unborn child if “the time was not right” to bring a baby into this world.
This is such a crock of crap! As much as I follow news, politics, the presidential race, this is the first time I’ve heard anything about Obama having considered joining the military; and even if he did, who gives a flip! As for his abortion comment...all it did was reveal his true nature—a “soul-less”, gutless wonder!
Amen.
I’m totally PRO-LIFE!! That being said!
STANLEY(OBAMBI’S MOTHER) REALLY SCREWED UP WHEN SHE CHOSE NOT TO HAVE AN ABORTION and to bring OBAMBI into this World!
LOLOL.........hillary tried that lame lie too.
Next we’ll hear that Obambi was a Reagan campaign worker.
er ah uh obama, real life does not allow you to revise and extend your remarks.
