"Separately, the administration in the afternoon issued a reversal of a ban on federal funding for non-governmental organizations working outside the U.S. that offer abortions or abortion counseling."
Obama signed the executive order on the 36th anniversary of the landmark Roe v. Wade Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion in all 50 states.
Something's not accurate.
Looks like he signed it out of the public eye. It’s signed, sealed and delivered. All this transparency rhetoric was and is crap — I hate cowards. If you’re going to do it, DO IT, and take the heat for it. Another disappointment to add to the rest.
For once, I wish someone would fail to live up to my expectations.
Yep. It’s right at the end of that article. But since the article is mostly about Gitmo and security matters, maybe they got it wrong?
Meantime, if Obama gets congress to pass a bill and then signs it, that could be even worse, since it will be harder to undo, as this article points out. That way he shares the blame. And I’m not sure if there are enough Republican votes to stall it.
Hmm, I read that article too, and thought he had already signed it. Now, I’ve seen two articles that say he has not.
