I was surprised at dinner last night. I went home of Friday surprised that the President had not written any executive orders undoing previous executive orders on abortion. My friend told me....of yes he did...... So I cranked out my WSJ this morning and found the scoop.
Obama overturned a "gag" rule that stopped funding to international family planning programs that offered abortion or advocated abortions. Bush had put this "gag" rule into effect when he entered office.
Now my gripes.....
Obama did not do this change with an executive order. He did not do this on Thursday...the anniversary of Roe versus Wade. Come on....this is guy is so rehearsed, I cannot believe he would not go for the glory as Clinton and Bush did when they came to office. (Both signed executive orders on that day concerning abortion rights) No....He signed a memorandum on Friday night....no big event...no TV cameras...he snuck it in. He is already trying to hide his disgusting views on human life. If you are so proud of your position Mr. Obama...then be a man...take some personal responsibility...oh yeah ...didn't you speak on just that issue...what fee day ago....and then take your lumps.
Next..This memorandum does not increase any monies going to these organizations...it just broadens who can get the monies....does not sound that bad.....really....? In the first place...it's for international agencies and it's $450 million dollars. We
are spending this money on other countries problems.
Shame on him for just not cutting the funding all together. He wants to take more and more money form the American public ....but does not save $450 million on foreign abortions.
