Obama Defends Roe v. Wade As Way for ‘Our Daughters’ to Have Same Chance As Sons

Really? So Obama has issued another executive order making it legal for men to kill their children?

“continue our efforts to ensure that our daughters have the same rights, freedoms, and opportunities as our sons to fulfill their dreams”

Huh? I realize abortions are most popular amongst the upwardly mobile young woman. However, what do rights, freedom, and opportunity have to do with it? Women are perfectly free to not get pregnant, except in the limited case of rape. If they are less free than men, and they are, that is a matter of nature, not law.

Nevermind the appropriateness of counteracting nature to equalize the sexes, and nevermind the relevance of any of this to rights and the constitution. I don’t care how far they go; I don’t even care if we live in the Brave New World. Women will never be as free as men in matters of the womb and the heart. Abortion helps them better to use, women, when you get right down to it. Joke’s on you, feminists.

Only when Roe vs. Wade is overturned and abortion is banned will sons have the same chance as daughters to have their children protected from death by abortion.

affirms a broader principle: that government should not intrude on private family matters

Pure sophistry (ie, bovine excrement).

How about families' choices of education? How about families' choices of discipline? Religious upbringing? Protecting them from pornography? Teaching them the Christian view of homosexuality? Do you support the UN Rights of the Child Treaty, Obama?

How about not intruding if a family wants to buy raw milk?

No, you DO believe in deep government involvement in private family matters, and are using this false argument to justify this penultimate transfer of responsibility to the most innocent being imaginable.

As musch as I am against abortion, I really wish his mother had made that choice.
