Of course he’s “pro-choice” -- he wants to lead the Democratic Party.
Many slave owners of the 19th Century would have argued against giving legal protection to somebody like Barack because it would lead to the abolition of slavery. It was the moral crisis that faced America during the 19th Century. Abortion is the great moral crisis of the 21st Century, and Barack Obama is on the wrong side of this moral crisis.
Abortion is as morally corrupt as slavery. It is rooted in the exclusion of a segment of humanity from the embrace and protection of the human family.
Being “pro-choice” is fine if the choice is between which college one should attend, what kind of car to buy or choosing a chocolate bar, but the power to choose death for another human being must never be accepted by any enlightened society. Those who favor or support such a terrible choice are unfit for public office, in the same way someone who espouses the choice to keep slaves is unfit for public office.
We need leaders to lead us into sunlight uplands where every human life is valued and protected, not into more darkness of ignorance, prejudice and violence where certain lives are devalued so that others can live as they wish.
The Oval Office that Obama covets is located in Washington, D.C.: the District of Columbia’s Motto is Justitia omnibus (Justice for all). That's Justice for all -- not just some. If you can’t grasp that concept, Obama, you should not lead the United States, perhaps the greatest nation to ever exist. America's 44th President must bring more light not more darkness to the land at this critical juncture in history. If you can not turn toward the care and protection of all human life, I pray the American electorate will not give you the keys to the Oval Office.
