2- Our President, Family Man, Likeable, Charismatic
The relentless pursuit of the truth - cinops be gone - Sunday, Sept. 2, 2012
We conclude from C) http://lifesitenews.com/home/print_article/news/35902
Put another way, there is the imaginary Obama middle-of-the-road record which the President wants to contrast with an equally fanciful caricature of the abortion records of Gov. Romney and Rep. Ryan. But this will not stand, ironically because of the massive attention focused on abortion. This week NRLC (National Right to Life Committee) has helped shine light on Obama’s record. One terrific source with links to important stories can be found here. What will you learn? That like details of so much of his life, Obama simply rewrote where he stood on important state and federal legislation dealing with abortion. Here’s a sample.
Veteran pro-lifers are aware of the federal Born-Alive Infants Protection Act which was passed in 2002. But even many pro-lifers have only a vague understanding of how an Illinois state Senator three times opposed a very similar state bill to provide legal protection for babies who are born alive during abortions.
But there is so much more dirty laundry that needs to be aired. Take Obama’s support for the so-called “Freedom of Choice Act.” Misrepresented as a “codification of Roe v. Wade,” in fact had FOCA been enacted, it would have invalidated virtually all state and federal limits of abortion, and re-legalized partial-birth abortion,. In other words, out with all those laws that enjoy widespread support.
How about more recently, in his role as President? It was like pulling teeth, but just before the House of Representatives voted on a bill to prohibit performing or coercing abortions to eliminate unborn babies of an undesired sex - almost all girls - we found out that the President opposed the measure. So far: no protection for babies born alive during an abortion: support for the most radical pro-abortion bill ever (FOCA); and a willingness to oppose a law to ban sex-selection abortion! But thanks of a blanket of media indifference, who knows?
However, surely even President Obama would agree that to allow abortion for any reason or no reason until birth - the status of abortion in the District of Columbia -goes too far? When the House voted to replace that anything-goes policy with a ban on abortion after 20 weeks fetal age (the beginning of the sixth month), except to save the life of the mother, the President had a chance to voice an opinion. He chose not to. There was one brief inquiry just before the vote and the reporter was told by the White House press Secretary that he had not asked the president. And that was that.
Obamare funds abortion in many creative ways and make rationing of medical care inevitable. Obama opposes the Hyde Amendment which has saved well over a million lives. The Obama HHS mandate forces religious institutions and businesses to pay for health insurance plans that cover medical procedures & drugs over their relig./moral convictions.
With all that to critically assess - Obama’s long-held support for positions only a tiny percentage of Americans support - NRLC quite correctly wrote, “The mainstream media is again busy ginning up stories exploring the outer parameters of the abortion-related policy positions of pro-life Republican candidates, even where this involves remote, theoretical scenarios - while demonstrating a near-total disinterest in putting the spotlight on the outer parameters of the abortion rights positions embraced by President Obama, even on matters under current legislative consideration.
George H. Kubeck - During this election, the Pravda-type news reporting is already being exposed.
