Obama at Notre Dame

He brought up abortion. You must admit, the guy's got guts.

He tried to make it sound like he was resonable on the subject, too.

He said that people on both sides of the issue "can still agree that this is a heart-wrenching decision for any woman to make, with both moral and spiritual dimensions. So let's work together to reduce the number of women seeking abortions by reducing unintended pregnancies, and making adoption more available, and providing care and support for women who do carry their child to term."

Why is it heart-wrenching? Why is it an issue of morality? Why would we want to reduce the number of abortions? Abortion is a woman's right!

Wait... unless... maybe it's heart-wrenching because we're not entirely sure it's good. And if it's not good, then it must be evil. But, no, it can't be EVIL. We've always been told NOT having legalized abortion would be evil.

Now I'm confused. Obama and the left has always told us that abortion wasn't murder. That a child in the womb isn't really alive yet. If that's the case, why would there be any morality issues or "gut-wrenching"?

Because when it comes to life, there is no gray area. Life is either there or it is no longer there. Murder can either be good or evil, it can't be a little of both. Rape can either be good or evil, it can't be a little of both. Abortion can either be good or evil, it can't be a little of both.

Obama wants it both ways. He says we should work on reducing the number of abortions. Really? One of the first things he did when he got in office was repeal an executive order issued by Bush that prevents forcing taxpayers to fund international groups that perform or promote abortions in other countries. Now the American taxpayers are paying for abortions overseas. Excellent start on reducing the number of abortions.
