White House Web Site Becomes Pro-Abortion After Obama Takeover (Within 5 minutes)
Life News ^ | 1/20/09 | Steven Ertelt

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- In less than five minutes after Barack Obama took over as the next president, the White House web site changed from pro-life to pro-abortion. The previous site, which touted the pro-life proclamation President Bush signed late last week, now includes Obama's agenda for women, which calls for promoting abortion.

Gone is any mention of the Sanctity of Human Life Day or the speeches or actions of President Bush's that promoted human life. Now, in the same color scheme and format as the Bush site, there is a celebration of Obama's agenda.

According to a web site search of WhiteHouse.gov, the only page on the official governmental site to mention abortion is a page detailing what Obama will do to promote the interests of women.

Though abortions cause women a myriad of medical and mental health problems, Obama states his clear intent, in a section entitled "reproductive choice," to make abortions even more available.

"President Obama understands that abortion is a divisive issue, and respects those who disagree with him. However, he has been a consistent champion of reproductive choice and will make preserving women's rights under Roe v. Wade a priority in his Adminstration [sic]," the Obama White House site says.

"He opposes any constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's decision in that case," it adds.

The White House page also touts Obama's backing for the Prevention First Act.

Billed as a measure to provide more funding for family planning and contraception, pro-life advocates oppose it because it sends millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion business that does 25 percent of the abortions across the country.

The Obama White House site also promotes the new president's view that Americans should be forced to pay for embryonic stem cell research, which involves the destruction of human life and has never helped a single patient.

The web site comes across as a false claim that government has not supported stem cell research in general, even though President Bush spent hundreds of millions of dollars promoting the use of adult stem cells -- the only kind to help any patients.

"President Obama and Vice President Biden believe that we owe it to the American public to explore the potential of stem cells to treat the millions of people suffering from debilitating and life-threatening diseases," the White House site says.

"Obama is a co-sponsor of the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act of 2007, which will allow research of human embryonic stem cells derived from embryos donated (with consent) from in vitro fertilization clinics. These embryos must be deemed in excess and created based solely for the purpose of fertility treatment," it adds.

However, not all leftover embryos are deemed to be in excess as hundreds of babies have been born through the embryo adoption programs that exist nationwide.

Makes sense that it only took five minutes to convert the web-site into a horror site.

All democrats of the liberal mode are pro the killing of little lives in the womb...most even approve of partial birth slaughter, er, abortion wherein little arms and legs are RIPPED from the little body while it is still in the womb or birth canal in order to KILL via bleeding to death (suffering as well) before it actually takes it's first breath and thus must dealt with as a REAL HUMAN BEING (in liberal speak).

These are SICK, and I mean truly creepily SICK people. Each and every one of them who could NOT WAIT to say the new White House now approves of slaughtering infants still growing in the womb deserve a fate related to what they do...killing those who cannot stand up for themselves. All of them...top to bottom.

my local bishop had our priest read an urgent plea from the pulpit on Sunday, urging us to write letters opposing FOCA. Trying to put the genie back in the bottle at this point. Where were they in November when they might have stopped FOCA?

Don’t they call them “elective procedures” now? The scum actually believe that unborn babies are “parasites”. Pure unadulterated evil.

Oh you ain't seen nothin' yet. Consider the views of 'Professor of Bioethics' Peter Singer of Princeton, who is an animal rights advocate, believes we should all be vegetarians, promotes the idea of infanticide, and has said some real jewels like:

"Even an abortion late in pregnancy for the most trivial of reasons is hard to condemn unless we also condemn the slaughter of far more developed forms of life for the taste of their flesh,"

"Killing a defective infant is not morally equivalent to killing a person,"

To clarify, Singer believes it is morally permissible to kill an infant for up to 28 days after birth.

I would not at all be surprised to see this genocidal monster finding a nice plum policy-making position in the 0bama regime.

academic liberals don’t consider anyone “innocent”.

Yes, they do: Every prisoner on death row is innocent, didn't you know? /s

“.....kinda like black folk used to be treated.”

Sadly, they are still being killed off in record numbers by abortions. (More black babies are terminated than any other) Even sadder is that they voted this guy in! They truly are still enslaved!!

From www.whitehouse.gov:

Address Gun Violence in Cities: Obama and Biden would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.

I agree. It seems strange to obsess on the “right” to kill and I can’t explain other than in a God/Demon way. As much as I have been made to feel silly to think that way.

Dark days ahead for us, Wagglebee.

I fear we’ll witness a full frontal assault on pro-lifers in the coming months and years. How sad that our country’s leader supports such hideous evil.

With ‘God dead,’ so too is our Constitutionally guaranteed ‘inalienable right to life.’ And it follows that if our rigt to life is dead, then so too are our right to liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Richard Weaver warned that ideas have consequences. Simply stated, by destroying in the minds of Americans the idea of the living God, all else (man made in the image of God, inalienable rights, etc) is destroyed as well.

McCain can rot in hell. I’m glad he’ll NEVER be president.

Well, YOU got YOUR wish. I assume YOU voted for Zero.

should we be surprised that they changed everything so quickly? ! (sarc) I am sure they had everything prepared far ahead of time, with people waiting in the wings to push the buttons the moment it was legally possible to do so. HmmmM! Actually, I am surprised there wasn’t this MAD RUSH of people, or camping overnight like on Black Friday! (more sarc)
