Barack Obama Would Back Daughters' Abortion, "Don't Punish Them With a Baby"
Lifenews ^ | 3/31/08

Posted on 03/31/2008 12:50:34 PM PDT by HD1200

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Barack Obama is drawing gasps from pro-life advocates today over comments he made during a campaign stop in Pennsylvania over the weekend. The leading Democratic presidential candidate appeared to back a potential decision by his daughters to seek an abortion saying he wouldn't "punish" them with a baby. Obama's comments came in the context of off-the-cuff remarks addressing the issue of AIDS. (see them here) "When it comes specifically to HIV/AIDS, the most important prevention is education, which should include -- which should include abstinence education and teaching the children -- teaching children, you know, that sex is not something casual," he said. "But it should also include -- it should also include other, you know, information about contraception because, look, I've got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old," he added. "I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby," Obama said.

Obama's father abandoned him at age 2 and his mother dumped him off to his "typically white" grandmother to raise him as a youngster. His beliefs are based on personal experience it seems.

ghastly comment but an honest insight into the mind of a liberal

unless you choose a baby it’s a punishing mistake

"I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby," Obama said.

And what kind of values and morals does it take to kill an unborn baby, Jr. Senator Obama?

I guess “punishing” the baby with death is O.K?

What a sick and twisted individual.

The same set of twisted “values” Libs have when it comes to sparing the life of a convicted murderer.

I just want him to keep his mouth shut until after he's won the nomination.

This guy is like a cross between Michael Dukakis and George McGovern

The ensuing landslide (of John McCain, unfortunately) has the potential of coattails long enough to win back both the Senate and the House.

“I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals.”...

I’d say taking them into a “church” that teaches anti-white racism, anti-American values, and other moralistic positions is a bit inconsistent with that quote. But sure, Barack, anything you say...we’ll spew it to the masses uncritically and uncriticized.

This is why libs can only exist through conversion and indoctrination - they don’t reproduce.

I think we have all been punished by Barack Hussein’s mother’s decision to give birth to him. His biological father had no reason to consider abortion. He knew he could dump Barak Hussein off on his white grandmother. I wonder if the other seven children he fathered with three other women were raised by their grandmothers. I also wonder if Barak Hussein were elected how long would it be before he moves his half brothers and sisters in to the white house.

I’d rather stop being “punished” with his burdensome existance.
