Answer 1

because what a person believe isn't the same as how the government should regulate us.  There has to be a choice or else it wouldn't be a free society. Someone can believe abortion is wrong AND believe that it is wrong for the government to make the decision for us.

Answer 2

Oh please. "Live aborted babies"?  What a crock of utter c**p.  

Barack Obama is going to be one of the best things that could happen to our country.  Republicans have screwed everything up for the last eight years - look where it's gotten us.

Looks like it's up to the Democrats to fix everything, once again.  Obama '08, baby!

Answer 3

because everybody is entitled to their own opinions.

Answer 4

oh i saw this article too and it made me sick. i dont know how anyone w/ a heart can take any  part in that at all. it is absolutely heartbreaking. because even though they arent born yet, they have feelings and they do feel pain. they do respond to things in the womb, they kick when you talk or they hear a loud noise in your womb.

some people make me sick.

maybe someone should have done that to obama before he came to be..

from alot of the things i have heard about him, it prob wouldve been best!

i know thats being hypocritical of me saying that, but i am just saying, obama is so wrong for this country

abortions are so incredibly violent

if ppl dont want children that bad, they need to get of d**n birth control! surely they know what it takes to make a child??

Answer 5

I hear about Obama and he is for partial birth abortion and that he is for the were the baby is born and they kill it bc they dont want it...and honestly i believe them. i will NOT give my vote to him nor will my fiance..

In February 2004, U.S. Senate candidate Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, sent a fund-raising letter with the "alarming news" that "right-wing politicians" had passed a law stopping doctors from stabbing half-born babies in the neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls.

Michelle called partial-birth abortion "a legitimate medical procedure," and wouldn't supporters please pay $150 to attend a luncheon for her husband, who would fight against "cynical ploy[s]" to stop it?

But that's not why Obama's opponent Alan Keyes said Jesus Christ wouldn't vote for him.

Obama recalled Keyes' statement in a recent USA Today opinion piece but omitted his reasoning.

I know his reasoning, because I was there.

As a nurse at an Illinois hospital in 1999, I discovered babies were being aborted alive and shelved to die in soiled utility rooms. I discovered infanticide.

Legislation was presented on the federal level and in various states called the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. It stated all live-born babies were guaranteed the same constitutional right to equal protection, whether or not they were wanted.

BAIPA sailed through the U.S. Senate by unanimous vote. Even Sens. Clinton, Kennedy and Kerry agreed a mother's right to "choose" stopped at her baby's delivery.

The bill also passed overwhelmingly in the House. NARAL went neutral on it. Abortion enthusiasts publicly agreed that fighting BAIPA would appear extreme. President Bush signed BAIPA into law in 2002.

But in Illinois, the state version of BAIPA repeatedly failed, thanks in large part to then-state Sen. Barack Obama. It only passed in 2005, after Obama left.

I testified in 2001 and 2002 before a committee of which Obama was a member.

Obama articulately worried that legislation protecting live aborted babies might infringe on women's rights or abortionists' rights. Obama's clinical discourse, his lack of mercy, shocked me. I was naive back then. Obama voted against the measure, twice. It ultimately failed.

In 2003, as chairman of the next Senate committee to which BAIPA was sent, Obama stopped it from even getting a hearing, shelving it to die much like babies were still being shelved to die in Illinois hospitals and abortion clinics.

(As chair of that same committee, Obama once abruptly ended a hearing early, right before Scott and Janet Willis, the parents of six children killed as a result of Illinois' drivers licenses for bribes scandal, were to testify in favor of Choose Life license plate legislation. I was there for that one, too. The Willises had traveled three hours. Reporters filled the room. Obama stalled. He later killed the bill when no one was around.)

So, the reason Keyes said Jesus Christ wouldn't vote for Barack Obama was because of Obama's fanatical support of abortion to the point of condoning infanticide.

I have framed on my wall a Chicago Sun-Times cartoon published during the campaign. Obama is holding a sign with "LIVE BIRTH ABORTION" on it. God is reaching down from heaven to a baby in front of Obama, and the baby is reaching up to God. Obama is yelling at God, "You keep out of this!"



In his USA Today opinion piece, Obama admitted being "nagged" by the Jesus-wouldn't-vote-for-him statement, but only because he wished he'd given a different comeback.

Obama insinuated opposition to abortion is based only on religion, lecturing pro-lifers like me to "explain why abortion violates some principle that is accessible to people of all faiths, including those with no faith at all."

I don't recall mentioning religion when I testified against live-birth abortion. I only recall describing a live aborted baby I held in a hospital soiled utility room until he died, and a live aborted baby who was accidentally thrown into the trash.

Neither do I recall religion being brought into the partial-birth abortion ban debate. I recall comparisons made to U.S. laws ensuring animals being killed are treated humanely. I recall testimony that late-term babies feel excruciating pain while being aborted.

Obama stated pro-life proposals must be "amenable to reason."

OK, Sen. Obama, let's reason. Explain why you support abortion for whatever rationale, at whatever gestation, by whatever means. Explain why you support infanticide, if banning it might interfere with abortion.

Then, since you brought it up, explain how, despite all that, you think Jesus should vote for you, either now or in the hereafter, particularly given His statement, "It would be better to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around the neck than to face the punishment in store for harming one of these little ones."

Answer 6

There are other issues to consider when voting for President. The president doesn't decide whether or not abortion is illegal. I do, however, believe it says something about his character. A partial birth abortion is never medically necessary. During this procedure, the body is delivered( if the head is delivered, it's considered "born"). scissors puncture the back of the neck and snip the spinal cord from the brain stem. The little arms and legs jerk before the dead infant goes limp. At that time the head is delivered. If you think this is good for our society and that a woman should have the "choice" because it's her body, vote for Obama.

Answer 7

In the same way that the US does not allow US-AID funds to be used for abortions (or condom demonstrations or "safe" s*x education), but hypocritically allows US abortions, that's how. There are worse things out there. What I don't understand is the people who believe that abortions should be illegal and then also believe that sexual education and condom demonstrations should also not happen when the reality is the people have s*x and they get pregnant. Let's prevent unwanted pregnancy. If we didn't have unwanted pregnancy, then we wouldn't have a need for abortions. So let's advocate for sexual health education for your youth.

Answer 8

Well you really have to consider the validity of what you read.  I have been a nurse in various hospitals including travel nursing.  I have never in all my years heard of a hospital that perform abortions, period.  Why would this woman comfort a dying baby and not revive it, she is a nurse or crying out loud that is what we do..

Answer 9

What you need to understand is that when a women has an abortion IT DOESN'T AFFECT YOU AT ALL OR ANYBODY ELSE FOR THAT MATTER. (THAT'S THE d**n TRUTH)

Answer 10

If you are looking at worldnetdaily for your facts and news, then you are sadly mislead. Try cnn or even yahoo's news.
