He said he supports a conscience clause on abortion but gave a joking response to a question about Notre Dame. Zero is a LIAR!

“Obama may support [the Seamless Garment Network] because it elevated other issues where he has less disagreement with the Catholic Church than abortion.” Exactamundo. I know you're not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but Cardinal Bernardin was a jerk.

What Obama and Michelle Believe re Aborted Babies Born Alive
FR POSTED http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2253212/posts?page=6
In February 2004, US Senate candidate Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, sent a fund-raising letter with the "alarming news" that "right-wing politicians" had passed a law (prohibiting doctors from stabbing half-born babies in the neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls).
Michelle Obama called partial-birth abortion "a legitimate medical procedure. " She urged supporters to pay $150 to attend a fund-raising luncheon for her husband, who she promised would fight against "cynical ploy[s]" to stop it.
BACKGROUND Legislation was presented on the federal level and in various states called the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. It stated all live-born babies were guaranteed the same constitutional right to equal protection, whether or not they were wanted. BAIPA sailed through the U.S. Senate by unanimous vote. Even Sens. Clinton, Kennedy and Kerry agreed a mother's right to "choose" stopped at her baby's delivery. The bill also passed overwhelmingly in the House. NARAL went neutral on it. Abortion enthusiasts publicly agreed that fighting BAIPA would appear extreme. President Bush signed BAIPA into law in 2002.
But in Illinois, the state version of BAIPA repeatedly failed, thanks in large part to then-state Sen. Barack Obama. Obama worried aloud that legislation protecting live aborted babies might infringe on women's rights or abortionists' rights.
In 2003, as chairman of the next Senate committee to which BAIPA was sent, Obama stopped it from even getting a hearing, shelving it to die much like babies were still being shelved to die in Illinois hospitals and abortion clinics.
BAIPA passed in 2005.........after Obama left.

" Obama said, "So I think that there have been some who keep on anticipating the worst from us, and it's not based on anything I've said or done, but is rather just a perception somehow that we have some hard-line agenda that we're seeking to push."" ![](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a319/fladj11/Obama%209/ObamaAbortionSpecialist.jpg)

In addition to be an idiot, a heretic, and an enabler of abortionism and infanticie, he's blasphemous.
Back when there was a real Catholic vote that mattered, no politician or president would have gone out of his way to offend Catholics. It shows you how far things have declined.

"Well, I think that the only reason that my position may appear unclear is because it came in the wake of a last-minute, 11th-hour change in conscience clause provisions that were pushed forward by the previous administration that we chose to reverse," Obama said. "But my underlying position has always been consistent, which is I'm a believer in conscience clauses. I was a supporter of a robust conscience clause in Illinois for Catholic hospitals and health care providers," Obama added. Translation: One of my first acts in office was to reverse the conscience clause put in place by Bush. But pay no attention to that deed, it meant nothing, just listen to my words. Words are more important than deeds.
"And when I sign the FOCUS bill and totally abolish freedom of conscience for anyone in the health professions, it will be with a certain sense of distaste, like the distaste I felt in signing Nancy's pork-stuffed Stimulous Bill. But such things have to be done. We cannot remain with those tired old ways. We must forge ahead to a new tomorrow."

As my grandfather said: “If a person lies, he will cheat. If he cheats, he will steal.” With Obama, that is proven true. What’s next? Murder? Oh, with his support of abortion and late term abortions, I guess he has his hand in that already.
