The president said:
Today marks the 38th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that protects women’s health and reproductive freedom, and affirms a fundamental principle: that government should not intrude on private family matters.
I am committed to protecting this constitutional right. I also remain committed to policies, initiatives, and programs that help prevent unintended pregnancies, support pregnant women and mothers, encourage healthy relationships, and promote adoption.
And on this anniversary, I hope that we will recommit ourselves more broadly to ensuring that our daughters have the same rights, the same freedoms, and the same opportunities as our sons to fulfill their dreams.
oh yuck.
ReplyDeletePresident Obama wants to expand legitimized murder even "more broadly" than it is now??? Poll after poll shows the majority of Americans identify themselves as prolife. Obama says he is "ensuring that our daughters have the same rights....as our sons...." What legal right does any American biological father(!) have in deciding whether his own flesh-and-blood-unborn child lives or not that an abortive mother need respect, Mister President?
ReplyDeleteIf The president really were "...committed to policies, initiatives, and programs that help prevent unintended pregnancies, support pregnant women and mothers, encourage healthy relationships..." then he would throw his full support behind Natural Family Planning courses. It's painful though because based on his actions what he is talking about is CONTRACEPTION, CONTRACEPTION, CONTRACEPTION. The divide is painful since this is supposed to be an area of common ground, and he still thinks contraception is common ground.
