BACKSTORY https://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/23/letter-shows-michelle-obama-backing-partial-birth-abortion/
First Lady Michelle Obama has come under criticism before for a fundraising letter she wrote for her husband
during his 2004 campaign for the U.S. Senate that has her defending partial-birth abortions.
LifeNews posted a rarely-seen image showing the copy of the actual letter, written to Obama
financial supporters, which opposes a ban on the gruesome abortion procedure.
In February 2004, Michelle Obama penned a fundraising letter to help her husband Barack raise funds for his Illinois-based Senate seat. The letter contends the federal ban on partial-birth abortions “is clearly unconstitutional” and “a flawed law.”
Though the three-day-long partial-birth abortion procedure involves the partial birth of a baby during the middle trimester of pregnancy and the jamming of scissors into the back of her head to kill her, Obama’s wife describes it as “legitimate” medicine.
“The fact remains, with no provision to protect the heath of the mother, this ban on a legitimate medical procedure is clearly unconstitutional and must be overturned,” Michelle Obama writes in the letter.
She also said the Bush administration should not encourage the abortion practitioners who sued to reverse the ban to drop their lawsuit to make it unconstitutional. The Supreme Court later sided with Bush and Congress in saying the ban is legitimate.
In closing, Obama told prospective donors that they could “count on” Barack to “keep the Bush team from appointing the Supreme Court justice that will vote against Roe v. Wade.”
================================================
Like then-President Obama, the then- First Lady has been a strong abortion advocate during her time with Barack in the White House, including during a pre-Democratic convention rally this year.
She was in Florida in January for a private lunch reception with supporters of pro-abortion President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign. While there, she met with an activist from the Planned Parenthood abortion business. Before that, she hosted the president of Planned Parenthood’s abortion business at the White House.
