President Obama and abortion policy changes

It is with a heavy heart that I read CNN.com and observe that only a few days into office, President Obama is ready to make some changes to the current abortion policies. And it's not good.

The article found here http://news.aol.com/article/officials-obama-to-reverse-abortion/316108?cid=12.


"President Barack Obama plans to sign an executive order ending the ban on federal funds for international groups that perform abortions or provide information on the option".

Basically he is allowing tax payer money to be given to international groups that perform and provide information on abortions. (Since the order was created it has been reinstated or banned depending on the political party). Apparently Former Pres. Clinton had ended the ban and one of the first things Pres. Bush did was make sure the ban was back in place. *Way to go Former-president Bush!

SO BASICALLY IT WILL TAKE OUR TAX MONEY AND SEND IT OVERSEES TO FINANCIALLY SUPPORT ACTUAL ABORTIONS, THE EDUCTION OF ABORTIONS, AND PROMOTION OF ABORTIONS AS A VIABLE CHOICE.

"In a move related to the lifting of the abortion rule, Obama also is expected to restore funding to the U.N. Population Fund (UNFPA), probably in the next budget. Both he and Clinton had pledged to reverse a Bush administration determination that assistance to the organization violated U.S. law.".

This is nuts. Basically Obama provides financial assistance to UNFPA. UNFPA supports the Chinese family planning policy. You know, the one where women are forced to have abortions if they have more than one child in the home and there is forced sterilization. And if they do have the second child they can be fined up to $25,000.


"President Obama not long ago told the American people that he would support policies to reduce abortions, but today he is effectively guaranteeing more abortions by funding groups that promote abortion as a method of population control," said Douglas Johnson, legislative director of the National Right to Life Committee.

I guess we all knew it was coming... but I wanted to ignore the scary possibilities and hope for the best. At this point all the worst situations possible are beginning to come to the surface. This is a full blown war on the sanctity of life. So now we pray....and pray...
