This is Obamas first thing he said going to do. Is to let late term abortions (that’s - partial birth abortions),
to be legal again. That is where they shove a pair of surgical scissors up into the skull of a half delivered baby. They then shove a vacuum to suck out the brains. That is so the skull will collapse. They then pull out the body.
Yeah, It sounds pretty unimportant.
So in your opinion you think we should let him do it? His MOST important act.

From a strategic point of view we should resist EVERY possible thing that we can get traction on. This is one of those things, late term abortion. Some 60 per-cent or more agree that this is a barbaric act. Except for one freeper.

Though I think that late term abortion is a travesty and I am totally pro life .. again ... I believe that there are much more important fish to fry that expending energy on what I consider to be a lower priority issue than preventing CW2 or WW4. If you don’t ... there is no point in continuing our conversation

You guys need to cut out the internecine stuff. You're both right. The potential threat we face now (political persecution) is a next-step-down-the-slippery-slope from legalized abortion. I agree with clamper that the former is the most immediate threat, which cannot be ignored, as it impacts families directly and is eerily similar to the infamous midnight knock on the door.

Be vigilant, but also pray for Barack Obama - for his safety and well-being. I don't hate him - he's God's appointed leader for us right now whether we like it or not, and we're to pray for our leaders. Strip out the politics and just imagine the tension he is under as a human being at this very moment! He may not move on this stuff quickly or at all. He may face a deluge of foreign crises, or his administration may be just one of economic havoc (it's just money), in which case we grind it out for the next four years. I'd breath a sigh of relief if it was all JUST taxes, and restitution to the underprivileged. If my President asks me to do something to help, in a noble cause (street ministry, food for the hungry), I would be pleased and honored to serve him in such capacity by virtue of the office he holds, with a clean Christian conscience despite personal misgivings about the man's character. All he has to do is ask, we're upfront about our differences, there is mutual respect, and we get the job done.

If he really is intent on destroying or imprisoning conservative God-fearing Americans so as to eliminate all opposition, that is ignoble. To the extent it violates life and liberty, we may be called upon to defend our homes from tyranny. My hope, however, is that most liberals are quite at home with a plethora of viewpoints and positions. "Tolerance" - and that works in both their favor and ours. So I'd like to shudder at any comparison between Obama and Hitler. It will be up to him, however, to set the tone. The stuff he's articulated so far (e.g. 100 hours of service for $4,000) seems a little greenish, a little Birkenstock, a little Toyota Prius - but not deadly. I can deal with that! It's just when they pull out the AK-47s that I get a wee bit uncomfortable.

Good to be ready for anything, though. Hope for the best, be prepared for the worst.
