Reason #24 to Defeat Barack Obama:
The Most Extreme President Ever on Abortion
America has never had a more pro-abortion President than Barack Obama.
In another time, Obama’s views on late abortions and on eliminating
virtually all current protections for unborn children and their mothers
would have been considered a scandal. They would have disqualified him
from holding high office.
Commentator Rich Lowry, writing in the journal Politico, said “it
is impossible to stake out a position further to the left on this
issue, unless, perhaps, you are performing abortions yourself.”
Two things highlight Obama’s extremism: His strong support for late abortions; and his desire to use federal power to eliminate virtually all pro-life laws in the states.
Late abortions
Throughout his career, Barack Obama has firmly and
consistently supported the brutal dismemberment and killing of unborn
children in late abortions. These are children developed enough to feel
pain and to live outside the womb.
As an Illinois state senator, Obama voted against a ban on partial-birth abortion. He
argued strenuously against a law that would have recognized that an
unborn child who survives an abortion has a right to the same care as
any other person.
When asked in 2003 about his views on abortion, Obama
answered “I’m pro-choice.” When the reporter followed up with “In all
situations, including the late term thing?”, Obama stuck to his guns.
He said “I am pro-choice. I believe that women make responsible choices
. . . and I don’t think that it’s the government’s role to meddle in
that choice.”
Eliminating virtually all pro-life laws
Obama promised Planned Parenthood in 2007 that if elected
President, the first bill he’d sign would be the Freedom of Choice Act,
a law that would eliminate most state pro-life laws.
National Right to Life has been successful in passing laws
in several states to ban late abortions when the child is developed
enough to feel pain. An Obama Supreme Court, if he is re-elected, could
eliminate those laws, putting thousands more unborn children at risk of
what this former abortionist described in his testimony in Congress
earlier this year:
It truly is a scandal that any elected official would defend such brutality. Every American needs to know this is what their President believes.
Your support for the National Right to Life Victory Fund will help Americans hear the truth. The media might not tell them the unpopular positions Obama holds, but we will.
Please make a generous donation to the NRL Victory Fund today. Please share this and subsequent e-mails in this series with your friends so they know the truth, as well.

and end the threat that Obama’s policies pose to millions of innocent
unborn children. For all the lives your support will save, thank you!
