In a way, this is an improvement. President Clinton reversed the Mexico City policy loudly & proudly.

Surprised no. Disgusted yes.

That policy was based upon a simple but important principal: that tax dollars should not be used against the taxpayer's will for the murder of unborn children.

Husein is making each taxpayer complicit in the murder of the innocents.

This bast8rd has slid by under the radar his entire political career.

That now has to END. Its time to get him on the record as the left wing extremist he is, loud & clear.

I suspect that the ignorant masses who voted for Zero because "he's cool and good" would be surprised by this.

The problem is that they're ignorant, which is why they voted for the Zero, and why they'll never hear about this.

Lincoln stated, “Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.”

The irony of electing the first black as president is that we tolerate and even fund with our tax dollars the killing of unborn babies — effectively treating the child in the womb as non-persons and property.

Thanks, Dem for sticking up for the “little guy.”

More like sticking the little guy — 1.3 million times a year, now using our tax dollars thanks to the Great and Powerful O.

When precedent is overturned (e.g. Heller overturning 75 years of how liberals viewed the Miller decision) the liberals scream and holler.

But they can come in and overturn precedent that allows them to kill more babies and everything’s A-OK.

But by first issuing a statement urging support for common-ground efforts to reduce abortion rates and then waiting to sign the Executive Order late on a Friday afternoon — a time traditionally reserved for the release of information an Administration would like to bury — Obama sent a clear signal that he wants to turn down the heat on an issue that has defined and divided American politics for more than three decades.

The Time writer tries to award kudos for not being as loud as, say, Clinton, but Friday Dump aside, it still is a reversal and should be highlighted as such and not sugarcoated.

The real proof of his view will be whether the Freedom Of Choice Act is pushed through Congress and he signs it.

I just heard them talking about FOCA on tv saying girls of any age would be able to have abortions without parental consent. They said girls as young as 12-13 years of age would be able to have an abortion. The discussion was among medical doctors and they said they could not have their ears pierced at the mall without parental consent at those ages.

Congress still has to appropriate the money. In theory, anyway, Republicans could filibuster until the restriction was put in the Appropriations bill.

Time to phone, fax, email, and write this so-called “Christian” who is exporting death to other countries. What makes the liberals think they have the right to use our tax money to export death? Unbelievable.

compare with this rag’s approach to a Bush thing:
“bang the pots & pans, shout loudly”

that title’s a command to the troops

Obama’s move, the latest in an aggressive first week reversing contentious Bush policies, was warmly welcomed by liberal groups and denounced by abortion rights foes.

The ban has been a political football between Democratic and Republican administrations since GOP President Ronald Reagan first adopted it 1984. Democrat Bill Clinton ended the ban in 1993, but Republican George W. Bush re-instituted it in 2001 as one of his first acts in office.

“For too long, international family planning assistance has been used as a political wedge issue, the subject of a back and forth debate that has served only to divide us,” Obama said in a statement released by the White House. “I have no desire to continue this stale and fruitless debate.”

Stale & fruitless...? Is this how a man who is self described as a man of HOPE looks at the struggle between life and death??? Or is it how he views the liberal side inability to conquer America on this issue???

How arrogant to use a phrase such as ‘stale and fruitless’ regarding the issue which will cause so many unborn children here and abroad to become just that: DEAD.
