I think it was posted here last summer where either Howard Stern or Sean Hannity (I always mix those guys up) went out in the street and asked Obama voters if they agreed with Obama’s policies. They then listed John McCain’s positions, and the voters all said, “Yes, I agree with those policies.” Abortion was one of them. Probably 75% of Obama’s voters had no clue about any of his positions except that he was going to give them a pony.

Americans are such idiots. Who the hell did they think they were voting for, Mother Theresa? Half the electorate should not be allowed out of their rooms without supervision.

If they are so upset, what are they going to do about it?

I will give you a hint...

Most will just let it go and gripe about it on message boards and at church functions...

Amazing... Homosexuals represent a tiny percentage of our population - yet they seem to have no trouble raising large groups to cause trouble and get attention.

Yet Christians just can’t seem to muster massive groups - yet those CLAIMING to be Christian are apathetic...

A new Gallup poll finds a strong majority of Americans are upset that President Barack Obama overturned a policy that prevented funding of groups that promote or perform abortions overseas...good - it's exactly what anyone with half a brain would've expected from him had they listened to him during the election campaign - maybe such "upset" will motivate some of them to wake up and start paying attention to what these clowns are saying instead of how nice they look and how nifily (to coin a word) they speak - if so, the 'rats are done for......

These upset people missed all the reports about Obama’s action in the Illinois legislature to prohibit medical assistance to babies who survived an abortion?

Never has a candidate’s pro-abortion stance been more clear or more extreme. If we actually have voters who failed to catch that fact, then...

Are Americans that stupid, what the hell did they expect voting for this POS.

All I know is that I went to the poles, extended the middle finger to the one then held up my noze and voted McCain. It’s going to a long nightmare.

By the way the ones who stayed home on election night, good job. I hope you are all proud.

Sadly, most Americans weren’t told what to expect from Obama beyond slogans. The media kept a tight lid on him, and apart from the carefully edited fiction of his life, they didn’t know enough to make a decision.

It was absurd how often I had to tell other Christians about his position on abortion, the whole Born-Alive story, etc. So-called “pro-life” activists who campaigned on his behalf will have their reward.

Note: The following text is a quote:

http://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/MexicoCityPolicy-VoluntaryPopulationPlanning/

MEMORANDUM FOR
THE SECRETARY OF STATE

THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE UNITED STATES AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT

SUBJECT: Mexico City Policy and Assistance for Voluntary Population Planning

The Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (22 U.S.C. 2151b(f)(1)), prohibits nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that receive Federal funds from using those funds “to pay for the performance of abortions as a method of family planning, or to motivate or coerce any person to practice abortions.” The August 1984 announcement by President Reagan of what has become known as the “Mexico City Policy” directed the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to expand this limitation and withhold USAID funds from NGOs that use non-USAID funds to engage in a wide range of activities, including providing advice, counseling, or information regarding abortion, or lobbying a foreign government to legalize or make abortion available. The Mexico City Policy was in effect from 1985 until 1993, when it was rescinded by President Clinton. President George W. Bush reinstated the policy in 2001, implementing it through conditions in USAID grant awards, and subsequently extended the policy to “voluntary population planning” assistance provided by the Department of State.

These excessively broad conditions on grants and assistance awards are unwarranted. Moreover, they have undermined efforts to promote safe and effective voluntary family planning programs in foreign nations. Accordingly, I hereby revoke the Presidential memorandum of January 22, 2001, for the Administrator of USAID (Restoration of the Mexico City Policy), the Presidential memorandum of March 28, 2001, for the Administrator of USAID (Restoration of the Mexico City Policy), and the Presidential memorandum of August 29, 2003, for the Secretary of State (Assistance for Voluntary Population Planning). In addition, I direct the Secretary of State and the Administrator of USAID to take the following actions with respect to conditions in voluntary population planning assistance and USAID grants that were imposed pursuant to either the 2001 or 2003 memoranda and that are not required by the Foreign Assistance Act or any other law: (1) immediately waive such conditions in any current grants, and (2) notify current grantees, as soon as possible, that these conditions have been waived. I further direct that the Department of State and USAID immediately cease imposing these conditions in any future grants.

This memorandum is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

The Secretary of State is authorized and directed to publish this memorandum in the Federal Register.

BARACK OBAMA

THE WHITE HOUSE, January 23, 2009.
